Stuck a Feather in Her Hair and Called It … Over in 5 Minutes

You know how you look at old pictures and wonder, Why the hell did we think those clothes/makeup/hair looked good?
That usually happens years after the photos were taken. But feather hair extensions? I feel like the sell-by date for those is right around the corner. Seeing them on Park Avenue ladies and their pre-tween daughters is driving me crazy. Unless youre literally or sartorially a rock star, this trend is one to skip. The rock-star exceptions that prove the rule are Janis Joplin
stunning blogger Vix
and pop star Ke$ha, who is credited with kicking off the feather fad.
People hate on Ke$ha, but I think she does great party music. Her song Blow has been stuck in my head for days. I was totally charmed by the video: Champagne! Unicorns! Rainbows! James Van Der Beek calling the singer K-Dollar Sign-Ha!
Of course, now that Ive criticized hair feathers, Ill wind up wanting to wear them. I often fall in love with things that I used to hate like the color chartreuse. For decades, I thought chartreuse was one of the worst colors in the world. Now I have a mini-collection of chartreuse skirts. However, my long-held negative feelings about Burnt Sienna remain unchanged. No one likes the Burnt Sienna crayon. No one!
