Birds of a feather, flock together!

i love anything with feathers
they just have this playful earthy vibe to them that attracts my likeness to them!
let me show you what i mean:

this feather frock (without the frownful face) is beyond!

how badly do you want to be invited to sit at this table?
i know i'm on edge for an invite!

eye catcher, eye candy, eye love - whatever you wanna call it
playful and fun - adds a punch to any outfit!

i've been dying for a feather skirt like this (also the legs to wear it)
this screams FUN night out - and i want in!

how stunning are these feather light fixtures?!
just fabulous - anyplace with these is a place i wanna be!
forget garland - use feathers! - how flirtatious with the lights!

butterflies what do you think of this vintage inspired desk?
notice the use of feathers?!

i NEED this feather explosion on my wall - asap type of need!
well other then the price - *boo* - wonder if i can DIY it?!



HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT FEATHERS?!
BIRDS OF A FEATHER FLOCK TOGETHER?!



My Life:
never gonna believe this one - Sunday on my way to Homegoods - i get into an accident - this time i'm in my Mom's car - sitting at a red light changing a song on my iPod - i hear a bunch of noise - then BAM - i'm hit - a young kid driving a SUV lost control while making a left turn, spun a 180, and resulted in hitting the whole back end of the car - it was just like 'u gotta be kidding me' - but we both were 100% fine - his truck has just scratches, Mom's car is a lil banged up, but nothing major ..

on the bright side, when i finally made it to Homegoods, to get some final touches for my Christmas decor, NO LINE at checkout - this is unheard of! - i took that as a good sign - that the big man upstairs sent a high-five to me ..

PS - i got my 'tree' up - well it's not a tree per say - it's a dress form - but i wrapped garland all around it - strung lights around - hung balls as a belt and trim for the skirt - has a star atop - it just screams 'it's going to be a fashionable merry Christmas at this home'  .. i couldn't be more pleased with myself!

  12. Woman I want you to immediately purchase some feathers for yourself. You have been having such a time of it lately - treat yourself to a little something special.

    Thinking of you,

  13. Feathers make quite the statement! The feather clutch is stunning! The feather wall art is gorgeous too...when we were in South Africa those were being sold everywhere. I have a savvy friend who made gorgeous feather tie-backs for her child's window treatments. As for your personal note, thank goodness you walk away from the accident in good health.

  14. Erika, first I am glad you are alright. Fun idea to use a dress form, would love to see some picts of your original idea!!!! Now for the feathers I am a big fan. I used a boa as a garland and I have a feather wreath hanging on a mirror in my entry. I used the same treatment in my guest room last year. You can see it at the end of this post:

  21. i LOVE the feathered light fixtures!!

    I'm so sorry about your accident. thankfully you're okay and your car isn't too messed up. i know that can be so scary. my first accident when i started driving was also at a red light, but they drove off to try to stay out of trouble. luckily i got the license plate number

    i didn't get whiplash immediately, but it did show up. you may want to go to the doc just to get checked out if you haven't already. especially if you were hit while at a complete stop :(

    p.s. that dress form/tree sounds fabulous! you need to post pics!
