One hair accessory is now dominating store shelves, after years of being “too good,” “too boring,” or “too schoolgirl.” And this time it comes in many forms, from elegant And elegant from ordinary to crazy and eye-catching.
You’ve seen it at pre-fall fashion shows and during fashion weeks, and especially multitudes of women walking the streets with it. Fashion designers are also eagerly snapping at her on social media. The wreath or headband is back in full and comes with a fresh new look.
Childish, very girly: This is what you might think about the wreath. But this year the accessory is moving from the schoolgirl’s wardrobe to that of the mature, fashion-conscious woman.
