Hermes Ribbon, It's not Rocket Science


















My "look" tends to lean more towards the 1940's-1960's, with a blend of undated street style. I know it sounds weird, but it seems to work for me both stylistically and physically, plus I like it.

On one specifically vintage feeling day last week, I wanted to wear something in my hair. The problem was;
1. I hate hair accessories
2. Don't really know how to wear them
3. I don't really own any

And then I remembered the Hermes ribbon my rather affluent friend used to tie up the Christmas lights he gave me a while back. I had saved the ribbon figuring it would be useful to me at some point.

Now, I know tying a ribbon around your head is not rocket science, but using a designer ribbon was way more "fashionable" than I ever thought it would be. The compliments I received far exceeded my expectations and I enjoyed the little bit of "designer" in my life, plus the Hermes symbol of horse and carriage added to my vintage look. Now I need an orange Hermes ribbon too.

Based on the great feedback I got I figured I should pass the info along to you, in case you wanted to have a little designer in your life. Have a great weekend!

Until next time......
