Festive Hair Accessories

Festive hair flair doesn't stop at Santa hats. Whether you're staying home with your family or going all out for a swanky soiree, tons of items can add seasonal mirth to your look. For an easy DIY option, create a low side ponytail or messy knot and secure with a thin elastic. Then loop a ribbon or bobby pin through the base of a colorful gift bow (make sure to remove the adhesive first!) and tie or pin near the elastic. For a bit more glitz and glamour, check out our top picks in this winter’s hair accessories.

A holiday party isn't complete without boughs of holly! Pair these sparkling berries with an updo or weave them into a braided style for a flirty yet subtle effect.
