Hair bow to a wedding?

I have a beautiful dark navy dress. I want a hair accessory But not a fascintor. Would it look really naff if I wore my hair half up half down as the photo with the bow attached to just above the half way line?

I really like big bows but I think you’d need a nice bright colour/pattern, navy with navy would be too matchy matchy.

I'm with you re the matchy matchy - the navy one I bought is a light navy colour which goes with, but doesn't match, my White Stuff dress (from last summer's collection) which has mainly muted (bolder than pastel but not very bright) cerise, mint and dark blue so the fascinator keys in nicely. It was only £17, which has given me a wedding outfit that's a lot cheaper than having to start from scratch.

They are totally back in!
I think navy is good against blonde or red hair, but if you're darker I'd go for a contrasting colour and use that also on my nails or shoes or bag.

Nows are back in? Dear God! Clearly don't listen to me then 😂

I'm going back on what I said, I really like the bow!!! 😱😂

The navy bow is fantastic, definitely wear it. I’m not a fan of the beige spaceship hatinator thing.

The bow is gorgeous

Overitx · 19/05/2023 19:06

Thank you. I decided on the bow

God who cares if they're in fashion anyway.
I'm always wearing bows in my hair and wouldn't hesitate to wear one at a wedding either

purpleme12 · 20/05/2023 11:48

I was yay - late 30s.
But I know bows suit me

NatashaDancing · 20/05/2023 12:12

Yay. 63.

Fergie is my first thought. Jojo Siwa is my second.

bunnybunnybunnybunny · 20/05/2023 12:21

So glad you've decided on the bow - it's the more original choice.

Wfhandbored · 20/05/2023 12:58

YES!! The bows are massively back so ignore everyone. Also even if they weren't fuck it

CindersAgain · 20/05/2023 13:01

Yay, and I’m late 40s but I know they’re back in fashion.

Tartanpaws · 20/05/2023 13:02

Would you consider a handmade beaded headband, like the attached? There are lots of options on Etsy
