My favorite way to elevate any hairdo for the holiday season? A cute hair accessory, duh! But I'm not talking about any old plastic claw clip or elastic hair tie. I'm talking about chic, hand-crafted luxuries from some of the most iconic fashion houses like Prada, Gucci, and Dior. Yep, this season your favorite designers are doing big things in the hair accessory game. Think: Leather headbands that feel just as special to wear as leather bags, sparkly hair pins that double as tiny art pieces, and logo scrunchies that are just as chic as a logo scarf or sunnies.

This Glitzy Headband
Lelet NY Giselle Sheer Embellished Headband
A funky headband is a hair must-have, and this rhinestone one from Lelet is a major upgrade from the drugstore cotton headbands I've been sporting since I was a tween. The oversized design comes in both blush and black colorways, so either option is sure to match anyone's aesthetic. The blush is very much giving Wicked, and I'm very much into it.
