The Latest 90s-Inspired Accessory Trend Will Hide Your Unwashed Hair

If the recent resurgence of barrettes had you excited to pay homage to Margot Tenenbaum, then you’ll be glad to know the latest 90s-inspired hair accessory that’s come back on the scene is headbands. But unlike the elaborate Blair Waldorf-inspired ones we wore in ’08, today’s version is reminiscent of the goody-two-shoes variety we donned for school pictures back in the mid 90s.

Padded solid-colour headbands haloed looks at the Prada Spring 2019 show and have made their way into the wardrobes of the leading ladies who reap in our double-taps. Kate Middleton has worn a number of padded headbands with her signature loose curls and polished updos since Prince Louis’ christening last July, and Lauren Santo Domingo recently wore a black velvet one with undone tresses at the Chanel Couture Spring 2019 show. Both chose to team their headbands with a fuss-free double-breasted jacket and glitzy earrings.

Because of the uptown-girl feel the accessory notoriously offers, it’s best worn to polish off a look and lend a regal air—or to rescue hair that looks lacklustre (or like its recently been in contact with the old Conair steam straightener). And for the latter reason, we’re calling headbands the hair essential of winter 2019. When slipped on, it instantly tames and styles hat hair, snowflake-soaked strands or static-y manes, making it a total hair (and time) saviour.

As for what to wear with this prim and proper accessory, think not the graphic sweatshirts, floral Laura Ashley frocks or sweater sets and pearls of elementary school but this season’s staples—edgy 90s classics, tailored separates and high-glam jewellery.

Here are our favourite picks.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
