With the last days of summer fast approaching, you better be soaking up all the bright sunny days you can stand.  And what a better send off for summer than embracing the year’s hot trend of flower crowns!

Celebrity Flower Crowns

Flower crowns have been very popular lately. From Pixie Lott showing off giant yellow flowers, to Kristen Dunst wearing a tiny crown of rosettes, and even Lady Gaga sporting rainbow roses has made the trend of flower crowns fun, flirty, causal or classy. Whatever you want it to be!

From big and bold, to tiny and delicate, women from so many different cultures have been wearing flowers in their hair for ages. Always popular at weddings and special outdoor events, flower crowns have recently become a fashion accessory for any day. And the end of summer is the best time to show your nature-loving, carefree side.

How To Wear Flowers in Your Hair

Go simple with a single statement flower, like a bright spray mum, clipped into your basic up-do or braid. Nestle a ring of eye-catching orchids with mixed greenery into your loose locks. Gypsophila, often called baby’s breath (or gyp in the flower shop) is always available and has a wonderful vintage chic quality when used all on its own, with just some ribbons or greenery for accents

Your local florist will have a ton of ideas. They can create a stunning flower crown or hairpiece that will be sturdy, long-lasting and perfect for any of your end of summer parties and gatherings.  What are you waiting for? Rain and snow will be here before you know it. Go live it up while the weather lasts!
