Everyone from Katy Perry to Taylor Swift seems to be wearing headbands lately.  From whimsical to practical, headbands can do a lot for your hair style and make a great accessory for dressing up an otherwise “blah” outfit, or giving yourself that out of the ordinary flair for special occasions.  A basic headband is fairly easy to construct, but construction is not what we’re talking about here.  Mostly, we’re interesting in livening things up with the addition of embellishments like silk flowers, jewels, or simple braiding techniques.  Here is a great video from Seventeen Magazine, showing all the many ways you can dress up your hair using small, easy to make decorations and headbands.  In one example, Taylor Swift’s big flower in the hair look is easily simulated by using a piece of thin, elastic cord and a silk flower pin.   Selena Gomez also loves her hair accessories, as you can see by taking advantage of great directv deals and tuning into the entertainment networks.  Her “hippy chick” style of braided bands is featured in the video as well.  Enjoy.
