Digging that beehive!

In addition to the runway fabulosity pictured above, there is endless accessory inspiration right here in our little fashion blogosphere!

Fellow Fashionista Mary designs her own headbands and sells them, donating the proceeds to charity! Visit http://www.heartonyourhead.com/
What to buy:

As demonstrated by the lovely Milly look at right (available at Neiman Marcus), your headgear should be informed by your total outfit aesthetic.

Whether you're feeling preppy, hippie, or glam goddess, your band or wrap should be in keeping with your overall wardrobe vibe.
