8. The Embellished Half-Up
Sometimes, simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. If you want to wear your hair down but feel like it needs a little “something extra” to be wedding-appropriate, focus on the accessory. The right clip can turn a regular day-to-day hairstyle into a bridal showstopper in seconds.
How to Style
Gather the top section of your hair—the hair that frames your face and the crown—and pull it back, securing it with a small, discreet elastic. Once secure, cover that elastic with a standout accessory: a pearl-encrusted clip, a crystal barrette, or even a vintage brooch. Use a curling iron to add soft, loose texture to the bottom half of your hair to ensure the entire look feels cohesive and polished.
Things Needed
- Embellished hair clip or barrette
- Small clear elastic
- Curling iron for texture
- Finishing spray
