Spring has finally sprung!

Well, I think it’s safe to say that Spring is finally here! Flowers are in bloom, greenery is sprouting and temperatures are rising. Aaah! There’s nothing like a long winter to help you appreciate the warmer months.

Spring is a great time to freshen things up and try new things. If you’re yet to set aside some time for “me” spring-cleaning - be encouraged to treat yourself to some TLC by reading our Spring ‘new and renewed’ articles Part 1 (refreshing your body, inside and out) and Part 2 (revamping and pampering your look).

An unintimidating way to experiment and have a little fun with your look this Spring (without making any drastic or permanent changes) is with hair accessories.

Scarves, bands and clips of various shapes and sizes are a cute, quick and easy way to take you hairdo from just fine to just plain fabulous! If you’re keen on bedazzling your tresses - here are a few flourishes to try this Spring:

Headscarves and headbands
From printed headscarves and turbans, to bejewelled or bowed headbands - wrapping your crown in bands of beauty is a great style solution for every occasion. Not only do they look great, they’re also a practical way of controlling unruly wisps of hair. Wear a thick, colourful headscarf to add a playful edge to your daytime style, or a classic bowed hairband for an Audrey Hepburn inspired evening look.

Pimp your ponytail
The humble ponytail is a classic, versatile style that can be appropriately tailored for any occasion. To add the x-factor, simply pin or wrap a decorative feature piece to your low or high pony. Bold and colourful clips, dainty ribbons or statement jewels (like the pretty pearl in the picture above) - jazz up your look with simple and subtle hair tinsel.

Blossoms
Real or replica, adorn your hair with beautiful flora this Spring. Ooze romantic femininity with a posy of pretty flowers pinned to the side of chignon, or crown your tresses with a garland of blossoms. With the wedding season fast approaching, floral embellishments are a worthy consideration.
