When it comes to accessorizing, when in doubt, simply take off one thing before you walk out the door.

Beautiful earrings, stunning necklaces, and elaborate evening gowns all have one thing in common: They look better when a section of your hair is swept off your face. You know the saying: When it comes to accessorizing, when in doubt, simply take off one thing before you walk out the door. Well, sometimes that one thing is the hair surrounding your face and crowding your jewels. Hairstyles can be as tricky as finding the right shoes, but finding the perfect ’do really creates that polished look from head to toe.
Sure, there are trendy accessory stores at every mall where you can find clips, headbands, and elastics for your hair. But you wouldn’t pair a cheap shoe or handbag with your outfit, so why go lowbrow with your crowning glory? Why not start a collection of quality hair clips? Tortoise shell, crystal, silk-covered and embellished—clips and barrettes can be elegant as well as practical.
On your next trip to Paris, visit on 124 rue du Faubourg Saint-Honore, one block from the where you’ll probably be scheduled for your perfect pedicure anyway.
In Milan, step in Giorgio Janeke's boutique on via Santo Spirito 13, around the corner from the Four Seasons Hotel.
In New York, sample Bergdorf Goodman’s selections, where the hair accessories range from everyday to evening decadence.
