Just Me, or Do People Wear Dorky Beauty Trends at Your Office?

I think I looked like a complete tool today at work. See, I wore my headband like this -- inspired by Mischa Barton and, (ohh, why lie?), a funky bartender who looked like the third and long-lost Olsen Twin.

A long-standing vet of many cutesy hippie hairstyles, I thought I could pull it off. I shoulda been clued in when the receptionist told me, "The roaring '20s are holding on line one."

But I wasn't. Only when the CEO (a dude) conducted a staff meeting while wearing a headband (stolen from our beauty closet), certain he was "missing out on some kind of 'theme' day," did I slink back to my desk and dothis quick style instead.

What did I do so wrong? Is this one of those looks only celebrities can pull off?

If you're not into hippie hair, maybe this braided style is more your thing

Encouraged by the utter adorableness of both Leighton Meester's character on Gossip Girl and Kenley from this season's Project Runway, I am increasingly tempted to try wearing a headband. But because I'm not sure how this will work out, and because a good headband that does not look like something from a mall kiosk costs many dollars (the Gossip Girl versions go for around $200), I know this is one of the purchases for which I must turn to eBay. And behold! Just what I wanted...
