By Cammi Henao, 17, reporting from Chicago, on her favorite flights of fashion
Living in Chicago, being exposed to different styles and new fashions is a given. Lately, feathers have been very much "in," and necklaces, bracelets, headbands, keychains, even hair extensions, have really taken off. Personally, I dig the trend.
I'm also a devoted fan of Ke$ha, who happens to be a fellow friend of the feather. So which accessories have made my favorites list? If all goes well, I plan on layering and wearing all of the following to the Ke$ha concert here next week.
Seriously, I just bought this headband on Saturday, and it's super cute. The peacock feathers are layered with some other teal/turquoise ones, and it creates a really cool effect when the feathers peek out from the bottom and sides of your hair.
I bought both of these earrings and mix and match them all the time, which really grabs people's attention! Urban Outfitters has a ton of different designs, and they're made really well, too. Pair a long feather with a short stud, or wear two different-colored feathers. Go wild!
This is my fave necklace for the way its feathers, as well as the charms, vary in color. It hangs really nicely and adds a kind of tribal touch to any outfit.
Now, what I consider the most exciting feather accessory and you may too: feather hair extensions!
I haven't heard many people even talking about these, but my friend and I are incredibly excited to place our order. And here's a video showing you how to put them in your hair, and take them out:
Now, to see what flies with Ke$ha…
