I am totally in love with my hair and fall deeper in love everyday. I am so glad that I was brave enough to do the big chop and I have no regrets at all. As Spring rolls in and my hair grows out, I plan to start accessorizing my twa with headbands. So I was excited to receive this one from Dauphines of New York. This headband is called Free Spirit which is very fitting as that’s exactly how I feel since my big chop,. Like a free spirit. I decided to do a mini photo shoot since my makeup for the day complimented the headband so well.
The Free Spirit headband is an adjustable hair headband featuring three strands—an oversize hologram centerpiece, a single strand of clear crystals on gold-tone base, and a single strand of weightless antique gold-tone chain. It’s easily adjustable to fit even the smallest heads (I have a peanut head and most headbands are too big for me.) It’s the perfect accent piece for any outfit and can be dressed up or down.

That’s a pretty penny for a headband but it’s gorgeous! May have to consider taking the plunge. Looks great on you & complements your hair very well. Glad you included the deets on your makeup, too. I have Riri2 & rock it with Explicit Lipglass & Vino lip liner. It’s my all time fave unconventional lippie. I may just pull it out right now 🙂
Ohhhh you still have Explicit?!!! That was one of my faves lol. I know this will be one of my go to lipsticks for Spring when I want a nude but unboring lip. Thanks hun 🙂
Beautiful look Erica. I’m pulling out my Vivaglam RiRi 2 as well.
Thank you and that’s right, pull it on out! 🙂
Beautiful! I love the headband.. Looks like you were listening to “Im feeling myself, im feeling myself, im feeling my…” (beyonce and nicki minaj)! You never Disappoint Erica!
Awww thank you so much, and I’ll admit that I was feeling myself a little sumthin’ sumthin’… I guess there’s nothing wrong with that lol 🙂
I know the photoshoot was about your hair but your skin looks great too.
