CRYSTAL MIST

This piece is a delicate spray of crystals, typically mounted on a comb or clip.


Best Hairstyle and Hair Type:
Wear this piece as an accessory to an updo in thick hair This is a larger piece and should complement the hairstyle rather than compete with it.
Gown Style:
Pair with a strapless gown that has similar detail, such as small flowers or other white crystal accents. Be sure your other jewelry is similar as well.

PEARL PERFECTION

Reminiscent of Cinderella, this is a simple and elegant three-strand pearl headband.

Thick headbands like this work well as simple accents to straightforward hairstyles like this clean, high bun.
Gown Style:
Pair with a long, wide-strapped or halter gown that has classic, clean lines.
Tip:
This look would be fantastic with gloves!

DOUBLED UP

This gorgeous double-strand beaded headband is likely anchored with bobby pins behind each ear.


Best Hairstyle and Hair Type:
This piece may be solid, like regular headbands, or loose, like the flow of a necklace. Either way, this style should be anchored behind the ears and worn in a large but free-flowing hairstyle like this one with lots of texture.
Gown Style:
Pair with a strapless gown that has similar details and clean lines.

DAINTY SUSANS

Delicate black-eyed Susan flowers on a solid, three-strand headband are held in place at the ends inside the hairstyle.

This piece would look great paired with a gown made with light, airy fabric or has similar flower accents.

BOLD BOW

This big bow is the center of attention on this multi-textured updo!

CRYSTAL CROWN

This tall crown fashioned from clear crystals really gives off a regal vibe.


Best Hairstyle and Hair Type:
A crown this detailed is best set off by thick hair styled into a disheveled updo. The contrast of the dark hair color is a great backdrop for showing off the crown’s intricate details.
Gown Style:
Match this headpiece with a dress that has equally intricate details. Because it’s pretty big, it would look best with a one-shouldered or strapless dress so the overall look isn’t too heavy.

STAND-ALONE SPINS

These spin pin flowers can be placed on their own or in a cluster within your hairstyle!


Best Hairstyle and Hair Type:
These single spin pins are great for all hair types! They don’t overpower fine hair and are easy to add to any hairstyle. Simply place them where you want them, and turn the metal twist into your style.
Gown Style:
Because of how many different shapes and styles of these pins there are, you can use them with virtually any gown. Remember to coordinate the style of the hair pins so they match your jewelry and the accents on your dress!

NATURE’S CALLING

These flowers represent a sort of sepia finish, giving your look a rustic elegance.


Best Hairstyle and Hair Type:
Hairstyles that incorporate soft waves or curls are a great match for this hair accessory. This piece is a bit on the heavy side, so if you have fine hair, wear it in a low updo before adding this to the back of the hairstyle. 
Gown Style:
Pair these flowers with a dress of simple lines and flowy fabrics. It will fit in perfectly with “rustic charm” wedding themes!

OLD WORLD STYLE

This cluster of flowers large and small keeps things interesting by incorporating various sizes.


Best Hairstyle and Hair Type:
Thick hair supports these larger accessories best, though fine hair that is properly teased underneath would be great as well. Choose a hairstyle that has large flowing sections.
Gown Style:
Gowns with lace detail work beautifully with these peach roses. Alternately, a strapless or one-sided gown would balance the flowers nicely as well.

SILKY SWAG

A large, silk bow adds flash and flair to your wedding day look!


Best Hairstyle and Hair Type:
This smooth and simple accessory works best with simple hairstyles such as this high bun. Choose a hairstyle with lots of height so that the hair supports the accessory and the bow doesn’t overpower your face.
Gown Style:
Choose a gown in a fabric that has texture. It will contrast the smooth finish of the bow very nicely.

FOREFLOWERS

This flower and pearl headband can be worn as normal, or over the forehead as shown in the photo!

A low chignon or twisted hairstyle would complement this headpiece perfectly and it can be incorporated into both fine and thick hairstyles.

This accessory is balanced perfectly with a strapless gown and veil that’s worn in the middle of the back of the head.
Tip:
When requesting a low updo, be sure the hairstyle is full enough in the back that you can see some of it from the front. If you can’t see enough from the front, you risk looking like you just have your hair pulled into a ponytail.

A simple clip with two rows of pearls is the classic complement to an ornate dress.

PRETTY PASTELS

Add a pop of color to your big day look with lovely orchids!

BOOM BOOM POW!

Pack a punch of style with this bold hair accessory!

Strapless princess dresses that have gathered organza from the waist down will look fabulous with this hairpiece!
