My Fall Mood Board is taken by Fairy Tale Hair

We’re feeling romantic this fall with cherub lips, ballet-inspired styling and ballet-inspired lipsticks. Celebs and TikTokers are embracing the latest hairstyle: «Fairy Tale Hair.»

Last winter, hair bows that were fit for royalty made several appearances on the red carpet. Ribbons were no longer the only thing on half-up hairstyles or party-ready buns, but they had arrived at the bottom of braided and braided pigtails by the end of summer.

The appeal is easy to see: Bows add a sweet and unexpected touch to an already charming hairstyle. You can channel your Little Miss Muffet spirit this fall. Bella Hadid recently paired a corset with braids and pink bows with a beautiful corset. This style is not going anywhere soon.

The accessory trend, which has expanded to include braids with ribbons, looped braids and just about anything that involves a bow, is a clear extension the romance moment taking place in fashion and beauty (see Balletcore and pearlcore and, of course, Cottagecore).

You probably already have the right materials to create this look, unlike most trends. It’s easy to add charm to any outfit, even if you don’t want to spend a lot (in which case I recommend Sandy Liang and Jennifer Beher’s bow collection). I know that I will be using ribbons and bows as my winter wardrobe turns to big sweaters and jeans.
