Deciding what to wear during the holiday season can be very tricky, especially if you're on a tight budget, so why not add a little cheer with holiday themed hair accessories? There are so many things to fork out for in the festive season and even the most well-oiled budgeting can sometimes go awry.
Little things seem to add up such as gifts you forgot to buy, new formal shoes you remembered you needed, and buffet food you promised your mom you'd chip in with. There can also be those little holiday mishaps which arise such as spilling a glass of red on your aunt's favorite top, losing your mascara on a night out, or chocolates you need to replace after you raided the family stash. These may or may not apply to me personally.
Therefore you may need to find alternative, thriftier ways to bring some stylish holiday spirit to your outfits and IMO, there's no better way than wearing gorgeous festive inspired hair accessories. Celebrities appear to be spreading the joy of the holidays too with their holiday themed hair accessories. Sofia Vergara wore a sparkling hair accessory to her winter wedding, Elizabeth Banks wore a decadent hair net to The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 premiere, and Crystal Renn wore a glam star hair accessory to a Chanel dinner back in October 2014.
So sprinkle a little holiday cheer into your wardrobe with holiday themed hair accessories this season.
