Pink Rock Candy – Top fashion trends, news and shopping of 2010

It’s no secret feathers are no longer strictly for cheesy neon boas and children’s Halloween masks. They’re everywhere from jewelry, to headbands, to dresses and skirts. Marc Jacobs, never to shy away from a bit of pizzazz, sent many feathered pieces down the Spring/Summer 2009 Louis Vuitton runway, but if you aren’t ready for a completely feather wardrobe, you can get a taste of the trend with a little trim.

Your Slip Is Showing, a fantastic company that specializes in fancy trimmed slips, features a few feather slips in their “Madam!” Fall ’09. One never to shy away from a bit of kitsch, I’d love to buy the ostrich feather and rhinestone, ‘Madam! Salt and Pepper Slip’. The Your Slip Is Showing slips range from $100 to $300.

So, if you’d rather try the dressed in feather trend out without any guilt, you can spend $27.80 at Forever 21 on the ‘Feather Hem Dress’ and get the same effect. If you happen to love the look, then by all means, spend your little heart out on the amazing YSIS slips.
