What? Flamingos Are Back?

Flamingo Fun

I get around the Internet more than your average bird. Pink flamingos are popping up everywhere. What? Because of a 

bird phobia, flamingos and I will never be fine feathered friends. But for fashion's sake, here

are my pink picks for rocking this trend.

Maison Scotch does a painterly print

flamingo jacket that only hints at a flamingo. It's a great jacket for the price.
