Daily Threads: Black and White




top: thrifted, pants: gap, shoes & purse: steve madden, headband: c/o sproos

The sweet Melissa over at Sproos sent me a set of headbands to try out. Let me start out by saying I'm not typically the headband wearing kinda gal. In general, headbands are too tight on my head and within a couple seconds of wearing them I have to pull them off. They usually give me headaches and/or an uncomfortable, tight feeling I just can't deal with.

It was a welcomed surprise to put on this headband and not have to yank it off immediately! It was not too tight and I forgot it was there - I could not be happier! Let's be honest, headbands can be super chic and super adorable and I hated not being able to wear them when I want. This set offers the same headband in five different colors and I'm so excited to have them and wear them!

Check out her site for additional headbands, bow clips, and flower clips! Melissa if offereing you all 10% off her items! Just enter Linley10 at checkout and you're good to go! Thanks, Melissa!

Also, congratulations to Jessica for winning the JCP $50 giftcard giveaway!

I love headbands! But you're right.. they often hurt after a while and I end up taking them off.
Very cute outfit. I don't wear black all that much but I'd wear this!

I'm with you! I had to pull my headband off yesterday because it was giving me a headache, and it ruined my hair for the rest of the day. I'm definitely going to give these a try. 5 for $13 is such a good deal!
