Jumbo Headbands

Headbands have come a long way since the last time they popped, circa Gossip Girl. Now, they're big, they're embellished, and they come in tons of textures, colors, and prints. We're still seeing them all over Instagram, so we expect these oversize crowns to stick around for a while.
