I was reading Parisian Vogue the other day. Well actually, I was more or less looking at the pictures, since my French is rather (ahem) mediocre at best.

And one of the coming soon trends they’re showcasing is fringey, western wear.

Okay so I’m one of those girls who wears cowboy boots regardless of the trend. But I’m not a fringe aficionado.

Fringe makes me feel like I’m wearing a tight white prom dress, while I’m on my period. I’m a nutcase all day imagining how I look in it.

I do have a more conservative replacement though.

These leather feather earrings by Aylin Gould who runs Fat Free Style are delicious.

They’re made from soft lambskin leather, so they’re delicate and flirty. And they come in a rainbow of colors, to the delight of my credit card company.
