Feathers, chains, and flowers: a headband roundup #Fashion#boho weddings#feathers#flower crown#headpiece#superficial snack#wedding veil alternatives Updated Mar 15 2021 (Posted Jan 3 2013) Catherine Clark bijouxandbits Photo from FunnyPeopleCo 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. Adorn yourself in a big ol' gorgeous flower with the Tranquil Skies headband. Here's a short style rockin' the Crystalline Fountains headband. Shabby fabric flowers are a favorite and can totally be worn every day after the wedding. This beaded headband has a retro '20s feel. Ooh, layered and beady! Related Post 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 This one brings the outdoors to your noggin in a super lovely way. Plus, I'm pretty sure you can wear the veil on the front or the back. This modular cat ear headband reminds me of this cat-eared wedding. Loads of feathers = loads of fun. Don't be afraid! This is a vintage find, straight out of the '60s. And OMG the color.

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. Reply I would be so down for an eyewear roundup! Awesome idea. Reply 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? Reply 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! Reply 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. Reply 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 ÂŁ150 to ÂŁ20, 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! Reply 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. Reply Hell Yeah… bring back the '60's! Reply 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! Reply 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! Reply Join the conversation Cancel ReplyYour email address will not be published.
