Etsy finds; head gear

It is quite clear that i’m hardly an accessory person, i did my time when i was younger and fell out of it soon after. But i enjoy them on people, it sure as hell takes a certain kind of effort to rake them in, mix & match and take them off. You gotta admit that one, taking them off is quite a hassle. Well despite me not being big on add-ons, i’ve been scouring etsy for head gears lately. The recent launch of ban.do is all over the internet and i suspect that ignited this crave for some feathers in my hair! Plus a downer of having short hair is not being able to do much with it y’know, my options are 1) blowdry 2) don’t blowdry.

I’m not sure how the idea of feathers came about – the first i saw was the piece from Bona Drag, made known by way of Dreamecho. Kennedyholmes also does a different take with hers. I found a couple of etsy sellers with similar versions and some others a little less flamboyant.

1. From GaiaTroveChicago 2. From maryjanefrances 3. From VieModerne 4. From thecandythief, she makes her head bands out of felt which definitely makes it look more abstract 5. From creativeyarn 6. From sewsephine

Another popular seller is charmschooldesign (not pictured) and her shop is by far my favourite to browse through. I’m not sure how i can incorporate these into my dressing but it’s something i’d like to try.
