The Look For Less: Juicy Couture Flower Headband

FabSugar — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 07:50:22 -0700

In the midst of putting together my outfit for a friend's wedding next month, I hit a wall with my accessories. Yes, I have tons but I couldn't find a piece that could complement my abstract print dress. I then experienced an "a-ha" moment! Why not decorate my head instead of the per usual necklace or bangle? This Juicy Couture Flower Headband, ($48) would look super-cute with my 'fit but there's no way I'm paying that much for a hair accessory.

This Arden B. Flower Anywhere Pin, ($14) is just as snazzy. It'll give my ensemble a nice vintage vibe and I like how you can also use it as a brooch. You can't beat the price.

Eek! by Eugenia Kim Hits Urban Outfitters

FabSugar — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 09:00:11 -0700

I remember first falling for Eugenia Kim's headwear years ago while in NYC. I saw a fantastically dressed girl wearing the sleekest cloche hat. Of course, I had to ask here where she got it, and that's when she told me about Eugenia. I promptly looked her up, and all hopes of owning one of her creations went down the drain when I found out her hats ranged from $200 to $300. Ready for the twist? Eugenia decided to come out with a cheaper line, called Eek! (cute, huh?), for Urban Outfitters. The collection costs a fraction of her namesake line, $28 to $48, and includes a version of her famous cloche hat, headbands, hair clips, and cool caps. Thanks for hooking it up, Eugenia.

Cheap & Chic: Sleek, Simple Headbands

FabSugar — Fri, 31 Jul 2009 06:50:22 -0700

Gone are the days of sleek, simple headbands. Now all you see are studs, bows, feathers, and jewels. There's nothing wrong with embellishments, but sometimes you just want to be frill-free, you know? Jessica Stam feels me, she's helping bring back the old-school headband. It adds just enough kick to an already dashing outfit without throwing it overboard. Take a cue from the cat-like model, who further jazzed up her metallic LBD with a sleek black headband at a Rag & Bone party at Intermix.

FabSugar — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 14:00:22 -0700

Did you hear? Five of my close friends all have their birthdays at the end of July. A bunch of Leos - crazy. Because I'm buying them all presents, I can't afford to buy a new outfit for each party. I did, however, ask you to find one or two versatile pieces that I can wear in different ways.

I started you off with this TopShop Mesh Headband ($18) because it can be worn as a head piece or necklace. Let's see your work!

Look #1, created by nikkeeb, is exactly what I need. That dress can be worn in so many ways - on its own, belted, tucked in!

Sneak Peek! Jennifer Behr's Elegant Punk Fall '09

FabSugar — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 14:00:22 -0700

Jennifer Behr, best known for girlie confections on the head of Blair Waldorf, has turned to the dark side. Her next immense collection of headgear is inspired by Victorian jet jewelry. While you will find nil color, you will find texture and sparkle; duchess satin turbans, nickel hardware, grey pearls, patent leather, flat chains, and romantic belts meld together to create an elegant punk mood. Also notice the models' hair styling for tips on how to wear. I can certainly see this deadly studded headband on new queen bee Jenny Humphrey . . .

Jennifer Ouellette Buttons Headband: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 02:50:22 -0700

I tend to gravitate toward headpieces that are quirky but not too weird. Which is why this Jennifer Ouellette Buttons Headband ($85) made me stop in my clicks. I thought to myself, buttons on a headband are a neat idea! And since they're black, it's not so out there. What do you think of it? Would you wear buttons on your head?

My expecting friend hosted a girls-only slumber party a couple weeks ago. Once the baby arrives, she'll be swamped so she wanted to spend some good ol' girl time before her delivery. We had so much fun watching movies and gabbing the night away! I asked you to help me put together a cute cozy outfit I can hang out and sleep in.

I started you off with this Tilly's Splatter Headband Set ($5) because it kept my hair away from my face during the pillow fights. Let's see the top three looks!

Look #1, created by hil34, looks super comfy - thanks for remembering the slippers.

Really? There's such a thing as a top hat headband? No matter how inexpensive this Wet Seal Top Hat Headband ($6) is, I don't think anyone could get me to try it. I love top hats, and I love headbands, but the two should be kept as far apart as possible. Do you agree with me or is the concept cute?
