Fab Feathers!

Banish visions of the Pussycat Dolls from your thoughts, darlings, and think: luxury, whimsy, and elegance. Feathers are the new fur! Just as sumptuous -- and far more humane, we might add. CC is positively tickled by all the feathers she saw on the runways for fall!
From plume-adorned hats to floor grazing dresses, there were numerous flights of fancy!
