Bra straps are for bras as headbands are to heads....

When it comes to the CW hit series, Gossip Girl one thing is true... the fashion cannot be denied. And when it comes to trend-setting headbands, Blair Waldorf played by Leighton Meester is the winner. Each episode Blair wears a more unique headband carefully picked to match each outfit or gown and she does it with class.

But when does a headband become more than a headband? I'll tell you...

When a bra strap becomes a headband...

Another woman's bra strap is not another woman's headband so lets just get that straight. Despite the fact it is a good recycling idea why on earth would I want to make the connection of a bra on my head? So ladies keep your bra straps on your bras. Thanks.

When it is larger than the head of a 3-year-old child...


 Le Tour de Force, the English brand known for their unique headpieces, (pieces not bands) have recently teamed up with Little Fashion Gallery, a company who carries top of the line brand name clothing for kids, to design, what they call "mini" versions of their headbands. But apparently they forgot that mini meant "small" because there is nothing petite about them. Let's be honest do you really want your toddler to be mistaken for a present? I mean I would just be worried about my child (if I had any) getting whiplash when they sneezed with one of those things on. Take a look and you be the judge...

What is funny is when you look at these toddlers not a single one of them look too incredibly thrilled to be wearing one of these headpieces.

So yea, when it comes to headbands, keep your bras on, and remember size really does matter. 

Keep it classy,
