Summer is in full swing-the heat, the sun, and the relaxation. Why not add a bit of fun to your outfits with the feather trend? If you haven’t noticed already, the stars are breaking out the feathers, and you can do the same (try to refrain from any Big Bird looks though). Wear feathers accented jewelry, apparel, or even put some feathers in your hair. It’s a quirky and fun trend that’s sure to stick around, at least for a little while.

Feather hair extensions can go with any kind of hair, you can find a feather if you have black, brown, red or blonde hair, and all the shades in between! Make sure to get them placed near the top of your head (not on the part line, though), so that the feather is visible. If you do want it lower, make sure it’s long enough to peek out from under your lovely locks!

Here’s Hilary Duff and Jennifer Love wearing the trend:
