How to look good in feathers at any age!

How to Wear Feathers at Any Age

Feathers are definitely a hot new trend.  They have been seen in everything from jewelry to feather embroidered fabric.  You may not know how feathers fit into your style, but we have some great tips on how you could wear feathers regardless of your age.

What’s your age group and how feathers can work for you…

>19- Girls of all ages will look precious with a hair feather accessory.  They can suit babies, kids and teens.  A cute headband with feather embellishment will look stylish for any occasion, but are especially adorable at picture taking settings and special occasion events such as weddings and birthdays.

20’s- The best feather accessory for twenty-somethings are hair feather extensions.  They are fun, light weight and are a fashion enhancing youthful accessory.  Most every color and pattern can be experimented with in your twenties.  With their easy application you may find them simple to change on a whim...which may come in handy with all of your routine wardrobe changes.

30’s- If you feel like you may have missed the boat on being able to wear feather extensions, there is a trend that is very similar yet, more mature.  Wear feather earrings for a youthful, urban vibe.  The feathers will play peek-a-boo behind your hair and can look comparable to their feather extension cousins.  Earrings however, seem less girlish but equally flirtatious.

40’s- Dresses with ostrich fringe sewn in to the material around the neckline or in a stunning geometric pattern are perfect for your forties.  They are classy and sophisticated with stylish qualities that even a youth would appreciate.  Keep the dress simple such as a well-fitting black dress so that you don’t appear to be skating the line between age appropriate and distasteful.

50’s- Now that you are fifty you may find it difficult to adopt a feather trend that suits your style.  An accessory that will keep you fashionable without weighing you down is a feather embellished purse.  Purses with feather accents are a perfect mid-life accessory, not to mention an everyday necessity.

60’s- Feather necklaces are appropriate at almost any age, but a single feather on a metal chain necklace will look appropriate for a classy woman in her sixties.  Many matronly women like to dress along with seasonal themes.  Perhaps a pheasant feather necklace will be recommended piece of jewelry in autumn.

70’s+ Wearing a feather cotton or silk printed scarf is a timeless clothing accessory.  Loosely wrap it around your neck or let the ends hang free for a chic look.
