Trends I Never Thought I'd See Again, part 1

Friday, May 23, 2008


Imagine my surprise to see this bowl of beribboned barrettes in a chic Soho store last week. (They were selling for an unbelievable $12. Per barrette!) I had a slew of these in every possible color combination as a six-year-old. Hmmmm… I wonder if they're still around my childhood bedroom? Because it actually might be kind of fun to wear them again, under occasional circumstances, just for old times sake. They do kind of match perfectly with spring's colorful, whimsical vibe.

Oh my god, that's so weird! I was recently thinking about ribbon barrettes...I had SO many pairs! I made them with my mom when I was little...

Great post!
