Fall 2012 Trends: Furry Feathers

During New York Fashion Week, models walked down the runway with fur and feathers. The furs were not just the usual brown fur; there were furs that were tinted in bright pink and orange. These warm colors make clothing more fall appropriate. Fur sweaters, jackets, cardigans, vests, skirts, dresses, and even bags are making their way into the upcoming fall season.

When you go to a special occasion this fall, be prepared to dress your best!
Feathers are a great alternative to fur. They look like fur, but it not as thick and heavy. So you won’t have to worry about overheating during a party. The following dresses are made with feather skirts, feather bodice, or feather bolero.

Just because it’s going to be the fall doesn’t mean you can’t still wear short dresses! Pair it with a blazer or shawl, and you’re set!
