I Heart Fascinators!!!


While the world waits with baited breath to see bride-to-be Kate Middleton's wedding gown, the royal wedding guests are certainly turning heads with a collection of stunning fascinators.


FASCINATORS defined:
Hair accessories, usually clips or pins with feathers, flowers, or lace, are everywhere these days, gracing the heads of celebrities, brides, and girls who love a little vintage flair on Saturday nights. Although they're cool and trendy now, they've actually been around since at least the 18th century, when large feathered and beaded hair accessories were the height of fashion. Funnily enough, a "fascinator" initially meant a lacy, fancy head covering for ladies to wear with their evening clothes. However, the meaning has evolved over the centuries to encompass the fun, flirty confections we wear in our hair now.

With the long awaited Royal Wedding happening I can't imagine the trend of these head pieces being the next big thing in wedding accessories.

Here are a few modern styled Fascinators perfect for that special day or everyday!
