The Offbeat Bride Tribe was buzzing recently about the trouble of finding killer headbands for wedding hairstyles. And you know what, it has been a long time since we talked headbands, which is a shame since they are awesome for long-haired and short-haired brides alike, and for any hair texture. The last roundup we did was a little on the wild side, so let's see if we can dig up something for everyone.
Take your wedding flower crown obsession to the next level
We love ourselves a good veil, but the bohemian-fabulous trend of flower crowns is not-to-be-missed. Nothing tops a fabulously colored dress or wildly colored hair... Read more

So cute! I love the last one, especially. I’ve been trolling etsy for something similar, but without the veil.
Now for a special request:
You’ve done headpieces, shoes, and fashion. How about eyewear?? (I mean glasses porn, people!) I’ve looked at all of the “brides in glasses”, but I would be very interested in styles considered just for a wedding.
I would be so down for an eyewear roundup! Awesome idea.
While we’re speaking roundup ideas — I’d love to see a roundup of coloured veils like the last picture and the recently featured black veil, or has that been done already?
That last one reminds me of the blobular head-covering-hat-thingy that Dolly wears in the Family Circus comic.
OMG, I just admitted that I look at the Family Circus!
I had my elbow-length veil attached to a headband! It was such a great idea from my dressmaker because it had a 50’s look to match my dress, and was super easy to wear with my hair down as I didn’t need a comb or pins. Headbands rock.
Oh my, those shabby chic flowers almost exactly match the ones on my dress (I also found a handbag in the sales covered in them, reduced from £150 to £20, bargain!). I think I may have just found the answer to my “What the hell do I wear on my head?” dilemma! <3 you so much for this Superman!
Cute suggestions! I have my heart set on a crystal bow headband. I have a sleek chin length bob and just want to look like a sweetheart rather than a “princess”. I love that headbands don’t require a fancy hairstyle to look special.
Hell Yeah… bring back the ’60’s!
oh my goodness, I fell in love with that first one! Though I’m considering a floral headband, I want a “backup” just in case my wildflower DIY experiences fall flat. Gorgeous!
I’d love to wear the cat-ears but I think the in-laws already reckon I’m a bit of a crazy-cat-lady already 🙂 The 1920’s looking beaded headpiece looks great though. Maybe I should Gatsby it up a bit!
