I am still loving hair accessories line New York Nat!  I discovered Natalie Ann Griffith’s glamorous and unique headbands about a month ago when she was hosting a fabulous Sweepstakes for a reader to win six New York Nat headbands.
New York Nat just released a beautiful holiday collection of Egyptian-inspired pieces.  The six headbands in the collection use vivid colors of turquoise, fuschia, and gold with enormous brighly colored gemstones and Swarovski crystals.  The styles are eye-catching and unique, which makes them the perfect accessory to spice up your favorite black cocktail dress for an upcoming holiday party.

I have more gorgeous headbands to share with you!  If you love hair accessories, then this is definitely the year for you because creative designers are popping up everywhere with fabulous new headband lines.
New York Nat is an accessories line started by dancer and former Miss America contestant Natalie Ann Griffith.  Her handband designs are girly and bold with pink velvet bows, intricately beaded appliques, and lime tulle.  I really love each piece because it is unique and incorporates the ideas of drama and elegance from the designer’s dancing background.

I have a short bob. So, since I can’t put my hair up, I’m always looking for ways to embellish it. I love headbands, feathers, and bows, but I think flowers are also a sweet choice, and I really dig the muted color palette of these particular flower hair clips. Check them out:

They’re made of a delicate linen, and instead of coming off as just totally covered with crap, they have a single, sweet, simple Swarovski crystal in the center. The pale pink and green colors will work with a lot of the season’s nudes and neutrals. Plus, at ten …read more

Jennifer Behr is one of the genius hair accessories designers who is responsible for the gorgeous pieces that Blair Waldorf wears on Gossip Girl.  She has really re-invented the headband by creating unique pieces that look sophisticated and stylish.
I would love to post about Jennifer Behr’s absolutely beautiful handmade headbands everyday, but at around $200 per piece I realize that unless you have the wealth of a character on Gossip Girl, you probably won’t be stocking up on these.  These hair accessories are definitely designed to be paired with elegant outfits for special occasions.
