Simply put, this blog is about passion. My deepest passions happen to lie in fashion, interior design and travel, and this blog is my drawing board.

Hairbands are Back!

Hairbands are Back!

Blair Waldorf’s most coveted hair accessory is 2019’s leading fashion trend. After years of evolving and many times recycled fashion & style advice, there is an iron fact: your hair is your best accessory. Lately, as seen per the interwebs, there has been a thread of statement pieces gleaming on the heads of our insta faves. The barrage of the triple B as I like to claim: barrettes, beanies, and berets. But, alas returns the crown jewel of hair accessories – the headband.

 The Padded Alice Band has come back with a sassy retort in hand, Gossip Girl 2.0 glam ready to be served, Dorota. In the era of bold colour blocking, monochromatic prints, and an obsession with anything oversized, the padded band is the icing to the cake. It’s functional, being a signature accent to any look whether it is for grand elegance or casual chic. This beloved headband exudes such a timeless femininity, homage to Princess Diana’s iconic black Alice band that sported as a temporary tiara with the minimalist pantsuit and diamond trimmed pearl earrings. Look no further, but at its namesake Alice In Wonderland and get inspired to elevate your LBD or polka dotted frenzied outfits with this handy hair accessory.

 If you’re looking for more range than the conservative Alice band all I have to say is…but wait there’s more. On the go and probably not having the best hair day all you have to do is pull that pony high, put on that messy hair bun, and thrown on a fabric headband. Say bye to those frizzy woes and hello to the unintentional retro vibe that has commenced with the addition of a knotted headband, pleated turban head wrap, or a satin bandana. Dress up your date night attire with the likes of a silk bow headband, crystal/pearl embellished velvet headband, or a double strand headband. Headbands come in array of styles, prints, and materials, but at the end of the day it is simply a sweep of your hair.

 No fuss, just fashion.
