9 Of The Best Headbands To Upgrade Your Wardrobe For Spring

It's one of Vogue's top spring/summer trends – and we're here for it.

After becoming low-key obsessed with Chrissy Teigen’s commitment to headbands last year, thanks in part to the world’s catchiest song from John Legend, we’re pleased to report headbands are going to be an even bigger deal in 2019.

Structured headbands are the ones to watch, according to Vogue’s round up of spring/summer fashion trends, and we’re already seeing some gorgeous ones hitting stores – including this Dolce & Gabbana number.
