Bridal Trend to Try: Jeweled Headbands

Apr 23, 2012 @ 3:45 pm

You don’t have to be the Duchess of Cambridge to wear a bejeweled hair accessory for your big day. At Bridal Fashion Week, Carolina Herrera, Reem Acra, and Oscar de la Renta all featured jeweled headbands on their runways—the perfect finishing touch for an updo that adds a touch of sparkle. Even if you choose to wear your strands down, the embellished band creates a dressed-up appearance, allowing you to spend less time worrying about your hair, and more time nailing your walk down the aisle.
