While packing up everything in my bathroom to move recently, I uncovered a drawer full of headbands-striped ones, solid ones, plaid ones, printed ones...I guess I became obsessed with them when watching Gossip Girl a few years ago and my collection got a little OOC. I'll admit, some of them with big flowers and bows are more fitting for younger girls, so I gave away most of those to my nieces. But, I kept the rest, so I'm determined to bring headbands back! Sure, one could argue that they never really went away, but for me they did, so I'm making it a personal mission to start wearing them again (and I hope you will decide to do the same).
In the outfit below, I'm channeling my inner Cher Horowitz, in a subtle way. I matched my headband to my sweater with a preppy collared shirt underneath. I've had this headband for awhile and can't remember where I got it. Any of these printed headbands would be cute for work or weekend. The gold one is more ethereal and Greek goddess.

Cher certainly rocked her headbands in Clueless but the Queen of Headbands will always be Blair Waldorf, who wore her's as if they were crowns. Most of her memorable ones were designed by Jennifer Behr.

I'm seeing a lot of headband options in stores now to fit any personality. With all the different styles and colors, I think headbands are a great way to show some personality and have a little fun with fashion.
