Welcome Back, Headbands
By Jayme Chandler
Headbands are back in style, and we couldn’t be more excited. Headbands are the perfect way to bring elegance and flair to any outfit, in or out of the office. Both highly practical, and the perfect accessory to any outfit, there are endless styles of headbands to suit any occasion, season, or function. Channel your inner Blair Waldorf and rock the headband trend. My favorite headband brand is Lele Sadoughi— they have the latest styles, and single handedly brought headbands back into the fold. However, if you’re looking for more affordable brands, I listed a few budget-friendly dupes.
The Embellished Headband
The elegant, “Jackie Kennedy” of the bunch, the embellished headband is perfect for Summer events, and dressy days at the office. Liven up your boring workwear with a beautiful embellished headband.
The Beaded Headband
The middle-child of the family, the beaded headband has the elegance of the “embellished headband” but with a more understated and gentle look. The beaded headband is perfect for those days at the office where your outfit does most of the talking.
The Knot Headband
The “Rosie the Riveter” of the bunch, the knotted headband channels an unmistakable cool that the other headbands just can’t. There’s a certain “casual-ness” of this headband that screams confidence and pairs perfectly with casual apparel like blue jeans and a nice t-shirt or blouse. We love this style in a summery pattern with statement earrings.
The Black Headband
Channeling a more modest, and utilitarian energy to your outfit, the black headband has all the function of its more flashy sisters, but in a more subdued, and no-b.s. kind of way.
The Leather Headband
If you’re edgy enough to wear a leather headband, we’re probably not cool enough for you. If pearls and blouses aren’t your jam, this look pairs well with a leather jacket and a graphic tee.
The Velvet Headband
The classic take on the headband. I love velvet for a pop-of-color, it’s timeless, foolproof, and works well with any outfit.
The Athletic Headband
The sporty take on the headband. They’re functional, they’re comfortable, and they’re super versatile. I love an athletic headband to up my athleisure “game.”
