Ever since I cut my hair short I have fallen in love with clip in bows as “headpieces” I do still like KCs, Berets and Rectangle headdresses but I found that when I cut my hair to my chin they were eating my head and making the coord feel unbalanced. I had used flower crowns as headpieces in the past but it felt like it didn’t fit the vibes of some of my coords.
I also find it a cute way to hide flyaways as mentioned in a previous blog post!! Also, clip in bows can be used for more than just hair! I also really like using them like blouse bow ties to help balance colors in coord or dress something up
Also, clip in bows can be so cheap!! I get most of mine from the dollar store and have an amazing cost per wear for them. Accessories are honestly the best thing you can save on for Lolita Fashion, since the quality between a 1$ bow and a 10$ bow is pretty slim, the difference between a 20$ dress and a 100$ is vast.
I haven’t tried it yet and it might look weird but it just occurred to me I might also be able to use clip in bows as shoe clips as well for an OTT coord perhaps. I’ll be sure to share if I do!
Do you have any accessories you think are underrated?
