BLUSH SHIRLEY WIDE RIBBON HEADBAND
The Blush Shirley Wide Ribbon Headband is a romantic, vintage-inspired velvet statement finished with a soft hand-tied bowtie at the crown. In a dusty rose tone, it adds an effortlessly feminine, Old Hollywood moment to everything from a slip dress to an oversized knit. Designed with Lele Sadoughi's custom comfort-fit band, it's made to be worn all day and to be the focal point of every look.
10 Ways to Wear It
- Layer this wide velvet headband with our Mini Crystal Stud Earrings and a long silk scarf knotted at the neck, letting the blush bowtie sit high on the crown over a soft low bun for a polished work-to-wine-bar look.
- Pair it with our Large Crystal Hoop Earrings and our Pave Tennis Bracelet over a crisp white button-down and high-waisted trousers; the blush bow softens the tailoring for a modern, feminine office look.
- Style it with our Statement Crystal Drop Earrings and a slim pave belt, worn with a fitted black blazer and slip skirt for dinner; the wide band balances the drop of the earrings without competing.
- Combine it with our Delicate Layered Necklace Set and switch to our Mini Stud Earrings, letting the wide blush band be the hero over a chunky cream cable knit and high-waisted denim for an elevated weekend moment.
- Pair with our Crystal-Embellished Barrette Stack on the side of a half-up style and a Long Pendant Necklace for a romantic, layered look that nods to current coquette and balletcore trends.
- Wear it with our Pave Cross Drop Earrings and a tonal blush cashmere scarf draped over the shoulders, hair in loose waves; old-Hollywood hair with modern shine.
- Layer our Slim Velvet Headband in a complementary tone underneath for stacked proportion, finish with our Mini Crystal Studs and a Long Chain Necklace for a fashion-editor street style moment.
- Pair it with our Statement Crystal Clip-On Earrings and our Pave Cuff Bracelet over a sleek tuxedo jacket for an androgynous-meets-feminine evening look that lets the blush velvet soften the silhouette.
- Style with our Crystal Rosette Bobby Pin set anchoring a low chignon and our Delicate Chain Necklace for a romantic dinner date; rosette and bow proportions stay in the soft-feminine family.
- Pair it with our Pave Huggie Hoops and our Layered Charm Necklace over an ivory slip dress, finishing with a velvet hair ribbon tied at the base of a low ponytail for full Shirley Temple romance.

How to Style It With Your Hair
Hair DownPlace the band 1 inch behind the hairline with the bowtie centered, letting loose waves fall over the shoulders so the velvet ribbon frames the face without flattening volume.
PonytailWear the headband with a sleek low ponytail tucked under, allowing the bowtie to sit cleanly at the crown; the smooth base makes the wide velvet band read as the focal point.
Half-UpStyle a soft half-up, half-down with the face-framing pieces left out, then place the headband just behind the hairline so the bowtie becomes the visual anchor of the look.
BunPair with a low messy chignon or a sleek ballerina bun, positioning the headband 1 inch back from the hairline and slightly off-center for a more modern, less pageant finish.

Styling Tips
- Position the bowtie slightly off-center for an editorial, less pageant-style finish; straight center reads more vintage, off-center reads more modern.
- Keep earrings dainty or sculptural; the wide velvet band already commands the top of the face, so avoid competing volume in the same zone.
- Store flat in the custom cloth pouch to protect the velvet pile and prevent the bowtie from creasing between wears.
- Spot clean only; never submerge the velvet ribbon, and avoid hairspray contact which can discolor the blush dye over time.
