Pearl Barrettes

I’m talking about another trend today – pearl barrettes. When I first saw the hair accessory making it’s rounds around social media my initial thought was “that’s so cute!” which was followed by “But would it make me look like a small child?”

But the more I saw all different people wearing the barrettes, I wanted to try it for myself. Since I didn’t want to spend a lot on a hair accessory trend that I may or may not like on myself, I found an assorted pack on Amazon for $11.

I tried out the look over the weekend. First, I curled my hair to give it some loose curls/waves and then chose one of the large pearl embellished clips to clip back one side.

It’s hard to get a photo of the side of your head! Anyway, the clips are pretty good quality and I don’t feel like the pearls are going to fall off. For only $11, I think they’re great! I really liked the look of the clip in my hair. I think if my hair was thicker it would hold even better, but it worked fine for me. So the verdict is that I’m liking the look and I can’t wait to try out the other pieces in the set!

What are your thoughts on the barrette trend?
