Hair me out! Flirty hair accessories are a big post-pandemic fashion trend

After more than a year spent indoors wearing raggedy old t-shirts and pyjamas, the joy of dressing up is slowly but surely making its way back into our lives.

From the popularity of period dramas like Bridgerton and Pursuit of Love to just some nostalgia for the ‘good ol’ days’, designers are betting big on ornate hair accessories.

With flirty barrette clips, shiny headpieces, and statement headbands – there are several ways to take on this trend. Here are some fun ways to try it!

Pretty Pearls: Take inspiration from designer Simone Rocha’s pear-encrusted parade of decorated hair. Lean crowns, hair clips, headbands or weaves – pearls look good in everything!

Bejewelled: Hark back to the ‘90s with bejewelled hair clips. Barrettes that feature tiny one-word messages are a big mood but elegant gold clips also do the trick.

Fairly Floral: If you want something more au naturale, then Rodarte’s flower crowns, headbands or just flowers tucked behind the ear are also a fun look to try.
