it is perfectly acceptable to have feathers on the mind

While I have expressed deep aversion to "fether-brains" (i.e., complacent, superficial females lacking in mental and moral substance), I take gladly to donning feather fascinators. My Peeps feather clip from the online boutique Bona Drag has been perpetually perched on my mane since I bought the hairpiece earlier this year.

Meanwhile, my Bona Drag obsession marches onward. (If you aren't familiar with my eternal adoration of the store, I simply insist you read this piece -- now). Proprietress Heather Rose has released new items in time for spring, and not the least of these are two additions to the feather clip menagerie.

In "plumage" and "brown iridescent," these hairclips are mystical manifest. I can only be thankful that I got my "pheasant" version when it was the only option -- heaven help me should I have had to decide between the three! As it is, I can't help but contemplate buying another in plumage. Just as I continue to be mesmerized by Bona Drag, I know I shall be wearing my feather clip for the long haul. So...perhaps I'm justified in wanting another? As a backup? Yes, I do have feathers on the mind....

I have a very simple feather headband that I have to resist wearing regularly. It doesn't stand out as much in my hair but I *love* it.

Those are pretty. I like the idea of hair ornamentation, and this look works well on your beautiful hair.

Sorry, you need as many as you can get. They really suit you--texturally they work with your hair and hair style. I'd advise multiple purchases.

I love how the colors in the feathers pop against your hair. I fear they may blend into mine a bit too much...

I want one of these so bad, but I'm trying to figure out what would look best in my dark reddish brown hair.

I adore Bona Drag. Studded ballet shoes? The seven seas tote?? And now feather hair pieces?? If only I wasn't so cheap and wary about online purchases...
