Southern Finds: Headbands

I've been a headband girl since way back when, so when I saw a gal who's blog name was Headbands and Handbangs, well, duh- I had to check her out! She is super cute! And did a fab giveaway I just missed- it was for a darling headband with a side bow. Right now, I'm all about the side decorations on the head.

I found a couple of cute ones on Etsy, too.

In love, in love! This red floral headband would look great with the fall browns and creams coming up next season. And this one would look great on both blondes and us hottie brunettes! ;)

And this one, I have to have. So, so chic and romantic! I want, I want!! I haven't quite decided if I want to pay almost $30 for a headband, but isn't it fabulous!?

I often wonder if I could pull off a feather headband. It's very chic, but a little bit too on the Carrie side and not the Charlotte side, which I tend to wear. What do you think?

If you're in the market for one, I'd make a stop at Plume and Bloom. Oh my goodness, the headbands in this Etsy shop are to die for! So elegant and beautiful, but I can totally see myself wearing one in a casual outfit with jeans, too.

Since it's terribly hot here in Texas, I like to let my hair dry curly. I get lazy and don't feel like blowing hot air on my head, so I just take the easy way out, put some Phytodefrisant Balm in my hair, scrunch, and go. Seriously, it's that easy. I've heard mixed reviews about Phyto. I've never had any problems with it. Sometimes my hair will get frizzy despite this balm, but it's normally when the humidity is super high.

When I go super relaxed like this, I like to dress it up a bit with a cute headband or clip. It makes me feel less frumpy, even if my hair is thrown up in a loose bun. And with this heat it normally is. Heck, I'm lucky if I can get some make up to stay on longer than an hour. The sweat just runs it all down my face. It's so sad. And such a waste! :(

And speaking of makeup, I'm thinking about doing a post on what I use. I had a girl ask me about it a long long time ago and just never got around to it. We'll see...

Don't forget to sign up for the Ame & Lulu giveaway- the belt is too precious to pass up!

Happy headband-wearin',
