Blair Waldorf Wedding Style Complete with Headband
Thanks to Blair Waldorf I’ve been able to resurrect my headband collection. Ms. Waldorf has taken the girly look to a whole new mainstream level; from little girl to grown up. It is has suddenly become acceptable to wear these fashions to the office or out at night without looking too “little girly”. My most favorite and cherished headband of all time is my wide Burberry plaid that I picked up at the outlet center years ago for $30. Today, they are priced at upwards to $100 and they are not nearly as wide as mine from a couple of years ago.
The great benefit about headbands is that they can really jazz up any plain-ole outfit. For example, take a plain black dress, add a headband, some cute accessories, and it evolves into a whole new look.
Jennifer Ouellette is definitely the leading designer when it comes to headbands. You can often find her looks featured on Gossip Girl. It seems as if other retailers are taking a queue from this GG look as well. Even hoewear clubwear retailer, BeBe, is getting in on the mix.
The most recent trend in headbands is the feather look. Remember the horrific dead bird feather Carrie Bradshaw sported on her wedding day? Well like so many of her other looks, designers have been able to adapt Patricia Field’s wacky ideas into mainstream fashion. Jennifer Ouellette’s bow feather headband is my favorite, although very difficult to find. There were only two at Barney’s Boston, and I’m afraid I’ve missed my chance.
