Wedding hair accessories - 1920s Gatsby theme

So after quite a long (okay, very long..) break from writing we are getting back into the swing of things with some more 1920s themed posts!

Today we are taking a look at accessories to go with those gorgeous dresses from our last post!



This headband looks absolutely decadent! It is under £10 so a bargain if you are looking for something that will really stand out on your big day!

This ebay seller has 13 different styles of hairband to choose from! I thought this one was beautiful but there will be one to go with any dress in this line-up! Another bargain at under £10.

If you want to go really OTT then something with a feather might be for you! Again at under £10 you really don't have to spend a lot of money to look like you've stepped right out of the Jazz Age.

Would you choose to have some 1920s glamour at your wedding?

DIY - flower girl paper flower and lace hairband

Here's another hairband DIY that could make a lovely hairpiece for any flower girls and the best bit is they can keep it after the wedding!

How gorgeous is our little model?!

This can be made simply with a simple hairband (which can be bought from any bargain store or chemist), a small length of lace or ribbon (you may have some lying around the house or it can easily be bought from any craft or bargain store) and some paper flowers (most craft stores stock these or they can easily be found online). 

We chose to add a button and gem onto our flower just to add some more detail but this is totally optional.

What do you think of this hairband option? Do you prefer this to the last one or do you think the hairband from Monday's post is more your style? You can see that post here!

DIY - flower girl floral crown

During our craft day we decided upon making a little floral crown which would be beautiful for the flower girl/s on your wedding day.  We started our project with these paper roses and a plain girls hairband.

These paper roses were purchased from a craft fair and reasonably priced and the hairband was purchased at a local chemist. 

So simple and very effective :)

And here is our gorgeous model showing you all how effective our little creation is :)

Simply stunning! What do you think? Would you like this on your flower girl? Or perhaps you would just like one for your darling little princess or youself ;) Let us know your thoughts by leaving us a wee comment!

Planning ahead :)

Vital question for your big day? What will be going upon your pretty head? Be it a traditional veil, or a vintage inspired piece there are sooooo many to chose from. I am pretty sure of what Irma will want but I thought I'd just browse a few different wee ideas :)

I found this simple, yet pretty one available to buy at BHS

 Or maybe something a bit more magnificent? Depending on the dress of course...There are some beautifully detailed ones available to buy from Etsy. Like this...

Or perhaps rather than a traditional type veil you might prefer something quite fabulously vintage such as this beauty

Also...nothing beats red lippy :)

Found a gorgeous Gatsby style head piece availabe on Etsy

And another gorgeous one on Etsy done in lace 

So very dreamy :) Whichever you are most attracted too there are many different options and different price ranges available out there. Hope you enjoyed a wee peak at some  :)
