My parents’ nickname for me is Princess. Don’t be confused–it’s not a term of endearment. It says more of my pushy broad, inner Veruca Salt, more than anything else. So while I may act like a princess, I don’t want to look like one on my wedding day. And to me, nothing says princess more than a tiara. Suffice it to say, I will not be wearing one. What I do long for however, is a headband. The last few covers of InStyle magazine have had models sporting them. I would like to purchase one, however, that does not require me to leave my first born as collateral. Is that too much to ask?

That last part doesn’t make sense..does it. Oops!
its okay miss strawberry, i still got it.
my mom calls me princess too but mostly sarcastically in that cute almost endearing way that only she can [and that i've inherited. yes!]. its usually when i start asking for stuff. haha.
no worries - i understood what you meant! headbands are definitely in, so let us know if you find anything that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg.
Thanks to Miss Plum–ebay!
i saw one of the 3 row ones with crystals at Michael’s, of all places… it was in the bridal section for 20 bucks i believe!
too bad you’re not down here! the erica koesler outlet had so many cute headbands when i was there a few weeks back. they were *very* reasonable compared to the prices for her stuff in boutiques and salons.
sorry, no other helpful suggestions.

here are a couple plain metal ones, perhaps you can use it as a base for another DIY project?
I bought a headband with two rows from whiteaisle.com and I think it was under $30. Good luck!
I bought myself a very similiar one at Nordstrom, I think it ran me around 50 bucks but returned it cuz it didn’t give off the same effect as the photo mags.
In the moviei Gladiator, I think Caesar’s daughter Lucilla (played by Connie Nielsen) in Gladiator was wearing one — very pretty with the right dress/hair.
Here ya go, princess…

Ha! My mom and sister call me Princess but usually when it is they that are wanting something or being needy. (They tell my dad ” the princess would not like that hotel etc”)
My parents used to call me princess. When I was about 4 years old we were at a restaurant, and an older couple asked me what my name was. I told them it was Princess Laura. I am still made fun of for that to this day.
I just got a really similar one from Target for $17.99!
