Halp! I need to find a great hair fascinator!

Our engagement shoot is scheduled for October 24th with the mighty Lulu and her loyal assistant, Liang. I will be wearing my Blaire dress:

I think I will leave my hair down but make it into big curls, 1940s style! Now all I need is a perfect hair fascinator. Here are the ones I’ve narrowed it down to:

From the Etsy shop of JMG Jewel Design for $36.50. I really like it, but I don’t like the pearls in the middle.

From the Etsy shop of Little White Dresser, $42. I’m not so hot on wearing an actual headband (although I do love Blaire’s).

Also from the Etsy shop of Little White Dresser, $18. I like the vintage lace and buttons, but I’m not sure if it would look good in my hair…

You may remember Emerson Made from this post. I didn’t see this particular flower on her website, nor do I see fascinators, but I am going to email her and ask if she would custom make it. I love her flowers!

From the Etsy shop of Accessoire, $21.50. Maybe in white and gray!

Which one do you guys like the best? Did you wear a hair piece for your engagement shoot?

I like them all, but I think I like the first one best. If you like it except for the pearls, maybe you can contact the seller and have her whip one up (quickly! I know time is of the essence!) without? Just an idea!

I just used fabulous earrings for our e-shoot. I love the idea putting something in your hair. Are you having a wardrobe change during your shoot? We did and I love that we did…we did a casual outfit (jeans) and then a dressed up look and it’s amazing how clothes can change the feel of the pictures. I’m excited to see how yours turn out!

P.S. Love your dress! So cute!

They are all pretty. The third one is my fav and I think it would be very cute with the dress.

I also love Blaire!

@Miss_Carmel: Wardrobe change! I had not thought of that!! Now I must do it! ok I will do the Blaire dress, and maybe a very dressy long one for shots we will do at our fave diner (a nice juxataposition?) and maybe one with a casual outfit…must think of location for casual outfit! Thanks for the idea!!

I love the felt one! It adds texture. I totally hear you about the headbands- love them on other people, wearing one… ehhh.

I made a fascinator for our engagement shot- kinda as a trial run for doing one for our wedding. Photos in the DIY section.

I absolutely love the 2nd one! But I’m not sure about it with your dress … so for that one I would probably choose the 1st or 4th one!

I like the “little white dresser” one! And I just started season 2 of Gossip Girl, so now I know what dress you’re talking about!! (I can’t help it, I freaking love Blaire.)

I like #2… I wouldn’t want anything to distract from your awesome dress unless you were looking right up on it on your head. Your dress, btw, is awesome.
