No matter how old I get, I'll always enjoy a trip to the zoo just so I can get a peek at the bewitching peacocks. On my most recent visit, I was lucky enough to be surrounded by the fascinating fowls as they gawked about fanning their majestic feathers and leaving me in awe of their natural beauty.

And for those who restrained themselves, I've got a more affordable ostentatious bird for you. The Anthropologie Plumage Shade ($108) is embroidered in silk with peacocks strutting about a navy cotton background. It may be overly embellished for some, but if you've taken a liking to Read more
I have to say, Anthropologie has a great talent for catching my eye, and this new photo from its catalog has given me serious room-decorating envy. I love the saturated wall colors and the interplay of blue and green patterns, including that stunning peacock sofa. Sometimes an overabundance of color is simply too much for the eye to take in, but this room is, in my opinion, positively Read more
Peacocks are one of my favorite animals. Every time I go to the zoo, I'm taken aback by how sightly they are compared to the rest of the animals. Before I get to gushing about this Fabworthy Elizabeth and James Tulip Dress ($495), I have to ask: Did you know that male peacocks are more beautiful than their female counterparts? It's the males who have iridescent blue-green plumage, while the Read more
The peacock trend ($18) seems to still be in full effect, if this peacock frame from Urban Outfitters is any indication. The 3-x-5-inch fabric-covered frame may be just the thing for displaying that beloved pet portrait. Love It or Hate It? Peacock Frame Love It Hate it Undecided Read more
