It’s no secret that killer accessories are the key to taking an outfit from a look to a lewk. While we still love a classic ring set or layered necklace, we couldn’t be more excited to see the resurgence of hair clips, barrettes, scrunchies, hair bows, headbands, and hair pins. You’ve totally already seen the trend being rocked on style blogs, all over social media, on the streets, and even on runways! And it’s for good reason: ’90s/early aughts fashion is slowly creeping back into the present day, and we are so on board. Not only is this of-the-moment accessory super cute, but it’s also practical too! Whether you’re sporting 3-day unwashed hair (totes not judging!) or finally taking on the task of growing out your bangs, a cute hairclip will take your look to the next level in a snap.
Not sure how to rock this look? It’s easy, we promise! Check out some inspo below to totally nail the hair clip trend.

If your style is… simply chic: Vintage-inspired pearl hair pins will complement your look perfectly! Mixing a ’90s-inspired trend with ’20s throwback glam may seem like a style risk, but we promise it’s easier than you think. Pair a pearly clip with other luxe pieces (like fuzzy sweaters or satin camis) for an elevated OOTD, or snap one in your hair to finish off your LBD for a night-out look everyone will be envious of.
