Anyone following fashionistas or the celebrity gossip sites will probably have noticed that headbands are quite popular at the moment. Rather than looking too girlish, the trend is to give a fresh, simple look by keeping hair just back from the face. At least, the overall look should be simple. The headband itself doesn’t have to be. Dominique Duval’s Rivers of Gold Headband, imported from Paris, is made of a string of handblown glass beads that are streaked with bright copper. It is a far cry from any of the brightly colored fabric bands you may have worn as a child. It ties with a velvety ribbon and, despite the intricacies of the beading, shouldn’t get caught in your hair. Price: $415.
