FLASHBACK: Feathered!

You may have seen the recent hype in the news regarding fly fisherman and their frustration over one of the newest fashion trends - their bait is being found in girls' hair!

I am not exactly sure how this trend got started - maybe Steven Tyler donning them on American Idol? But nonetheless, girls everywhere are picking out feathers of all colors and clipping them in their hair.

Ann Elise first brought this fashion trend to my attention when a few friends at school started wearing them. I started paying attention and one day found myself at the school early for pick-up. The third graders were at recess and a group of girls were sitting nearby and I noticed just about all of them had feathers! I knew a few of them and decided to find our what I could. They told me everything! HA! I found out where to get them, how they get put in, all the styles, etc.

Ann Elise continued to bring up the idea of getting feathered and after talking it over we decided it would make a good "recital gift". So, the feathers were purchased, wrapped, and attached to some balloons. She was very excited when she opened them and couldn't stop asking when could she get "feathered"!

I took her to the boutique the next day and a sweet college girl put them in. Ann Elise was very proud and has enjoyed everyday with her little extra bling :)
