Bodacious Bunny Ears

Darlings, happy Easter weekend! Crack open a Cadbury egg and behold these bodacious bunny ears... 

This haute accessory was first popularized by Playboy, and made even more ubiquitous (and socially/fashionably acceptable) by the marvelously memorable 2009 Louis Vuitton runway show. The trend has been sported by numerous models and celebs, from the chic snaps of Instagram to the pretty pages of our favorite fashion mags, and CC absolutely adores it!

Darlings, what do you think of this trend?

CC was inspired by this Bon Bon Rose post to wax nostalgic about the 90s... Some of CC’s experiences are personal, others universal... [First photo, 1991 Versace ad].
