To Headpiece or Not to Headpiece

April 19th, 2006 @ 12:25 pm by Mrs. Caterpillar

Back when I was in the midst of wedding gown purchase madness, I bought a veil on impulse. It was $625. I can’t remember what it looks like. I also can’t really remember what my dress looks like. Clearly I make good decisions on impulse. In any case, I’m now looking at headpieces. I love these from Bonbon Oiseau.

They’re simple and sweet, and handmade in Brooklyn of vintage ribbons and trims by Deborah Stein. Who is quite as lovely as her pieces. She also offers custom designs.

I apologize for my ignorance, but what are headpieces?

I think of headpiece as a sort of catch-all term for the various things one might wear on her head during her wedding, e.g. tiaras, flowers, hairpin crowns, or any combination thereof. Although, looking at the pictures, I could have gone with “hair ornaments.” That might have made more sense.
