Big Hair Accessories Can Make or Break Your Look
Wearing big hair accessories is a big risk to take. If you choose one that’s slightly too big, you might end up looking like a circus act. But, I’ve definitely seen some girls pulling off the over-sized flowers and headbands flawlessly. It all depends on the size of your head. If you know you have a relatively small face, you can still wear big accessories, but you should go for a skinny headband. A fat headband and a HUGE flower is going to make your head seem awkwardly small. On the other hand, if you know your head is normal or a little bigger, you can probably pull off most large hair accessories with little worry.
Here’s Taylor Swift and her thin headband, but large flower. If you’re wearing this out to a party or casual get together, the flower could stand to be a little smaller. Taylor’s on a photo shoot in this picture, where the rules applied are a little different, but the overall idea is the same because she’s got a petite frame and the thin strap makes the flower work.
Here’s a DON’T: When we’re talking about big hair bands and accessories, how can anyone forget Whitney’s giant, thermal off white headband that she wore in an episode of the Hills earlier this year. This was not flattering at all and the entire scene that she wore it, I couldn’t not stare at the giant-ness of her flower. The flower itself is not cute and the material and color combination made it look kind of dirty. 
This is a perfect example a big hair accessory that does not fit the frame of her face. I understand that the headband is probably Whitney’s attempt at staying warm yet fashionable–but it kind of looks like an in-between of a beanie and a headband and that’s just weird.
I couldn’t really find any celebrities that are able to pull off wearing a flower in their hair but here’s an image of a style I stumbled upon that looks elegant and beautiful. You can’t go wrong with curls and a flower.
Finally, here’s Sarah Jessica Parker walking in at the premiere of Sex and the City the movie. No words are necessary.
