			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Matthew Williamson is the latest top designer to partner up with a high street brand for a good cause.</p>
<p>The designer is collaborating with <a title="Accessorize, Westfield" href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35844">Accessorize</a> to create an exclusive charm bracelet, which will be in stores this month,  to raise money for charities The Monsoon Accessorize Trust and Too Many Women.<a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/matthew-williamson-bracelet.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4623" title="matthew williamson bracelet" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/matthew-williamson-bracelet.jpg" alt="" width="410" height="250" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There was nothing subtle or retiring about <strong>Rihanna&#8217;s appearance</strong> on this week&#8217;s <strong>X Factor</strong>. She was adorned with <strong>oversized floral accessories</strong>, adding maximum impact to her outfit.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/rihanna_xfactor.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-2679  aligncenter" title="rihanna_xfactor" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/rihanna_xfactor.jpg" alt="" width="252" height="315" /></a></p>
<p>Rihanna wore a stunning <strong>William Tempest puffball dress</strong> and flashed a pair of frilly knickers underneath. But it was the fabulous <strong>floral arrangement</strong> that added a unique twist to her look. In typical Rihanna style, she didn&#8217;t just add one corsage, she wore a poppy and rose headband and grouped together a number of different corsages on her dress too.</p>
<p><strong>Corsages</strong> are a great way to <strong>customise a dress</strong>, particularly if you want to update an old favourite. Perfect for Christmas party season, you&#8217;ll find a wide range of <strong>floral accessories</strong> in stores now. Go for different sizes, textures and colours. Mix silks, velvets and even woollens with net, sequins or feathers. You&#8217;ll also find corsages with prints like checks, florals or this season&#8217;s favourite &#8211; leopard print.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/corsages2.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-2682  aligncenter" title="corsages2" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/corsages2.jpg" alt="" width="515" height="350" /></a></p>
<p>Left to right: Khaki floral corsage, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35534" target="_blank">Dorothy Perkins</a></strong> £6.50; Leopard print corsage, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35635" target="_blank">Oasis</a></strong> £6; Sequinned net flower corsage, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35534" target="_blank">Dorothy Perkins</a></strong> £8.50</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/corsages1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-2683  aligncenter" title="corsages1" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/corsages1.jpg" alt="" width="515" height="350" /></a></p>
<p>Left to right: Taipei printed ruffle flower clip, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?category=2049&amp;retailer=35844" target="_blank">Accessorize</a></strong> £10; Rose corsage, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35635" target="_blank">Oasis</a></strong> £6; Oversized origami flower, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?category=2049&amp;retailer=35844" target="_blank">Accessorize</a></strong> £10</p>
<p><strong>Headbands </strong>are spot on for a final touch. Have some fun with them. Feathers, net, sequins, bows &#8211; they&#8217;re all out there for you to try. You don&#8217;t have to go for a standout arrangement as large as Rihanna&#8217;s, but then again&#8230; why not?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-2684      aligncenter" title="headband" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/headband.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="250" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Feather net embellished headband, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35710&amp;category=2049" target="_blank">Topshop</a></strong> £30</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">It&#8217;s holiday time &#8211; sun, sea, blue skies. Keep that vibe going by adding a splash of summer colour to your wardrobe palette. Think blues and greens from cobalt to turquoise and every hue in between.</p>
<p><strong>Going on holiday?</strong></p>
<p>Bold blues and greens look great in the sunshine and will complement a golden tan. Pick out some bright, colourful pieces to mix with your basic neutrals. We spotted this bright blue <strong>River Island bikini on Coleen Rooney</strong> recently. If it&#8217;s good enough for her holiday wardrobe, it&#8217;s good enough for ours too.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/holiday1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-2042 aligncenter" title="holiday" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/holiday1.jpg" alt="" width="515" height="350" /></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Left to right: Amaryllis kaftan, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?category=2049&amp;retailer=35844" target="_blank">Accessorize</a></strong> £30; Blue bikini, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?category=2027&amp;retailer=35659" target="_blank">River Island</a></strong> top £12.99 and bottoms £9.99; <strong>Havaiana </strong>slim flip flops, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?category=2050&amp;retailer=35665" target="_blank">Schuh</a></strong> £19.99</p>
<p><strong>Staying home?</strong></p>
<p>If you&#8217;re holiday&#8217;s behind you or you&#8217;ve decided to stay put this year, create your own holiday vibe with splashes of colour. These pieces will lift your wardrobe and see you through to next season. Enjoy them now and to spice up your more neutral Autumn/Winter palette of camel and grey.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/splash2.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-2044  aligncenter" title="splash2" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/splash2.jpg" alt="" width="515" height="350" /></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>From left to right: Asymettric ruffle front dress, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?category=2027&amp;retailer=35635" target="_blank">Oasis</a></strong> was £50 now £30; Two tone sunglasses, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?category=2027&amp;retailer=35710" target="_blank">Topshop</a></strong> £15; Teal mid-heel brogue, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?category=2050&amp;retailer=35637" target="_blank">Office</a></strong> £65; Blue Prism watch, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35567&amp;category=2000" target="_blank">Guess Accessories</a></strong> £130; <strong>NailsInc </strong>nail polish in Haymarket, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?category=2000&amp;retailer=35528" target="_blank">Debenhams</a></strong> £10.50</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">It&#8217;s that time of year again. Festival season is upon us. With Glastonbury this weekend and Reading/Leeds, Big Chill, Bestival, Latitude and so many more yet to come, it&#8217;s time to sort out your festival wardrobe. And now is such a good time to shop with the <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/offers-events/sale2010/" target="_blank">summer sales</a></strong> in full swing. You could pick up some brilliant bargains!</p>
<p>Right now, the sun is shining and people are smiling. Festival dressing is so much easier when it&#8217;s warm and dry. But looking good is made trickier by the camping and festival shower situation. Our advice is to aim for cool, comfy and relaxed styling.</p>
<p>Go for <strong>slouchy vest tops</strong> teamed with <strong>cute shorts</strong> or <strong>leggings. </strong>Add fringed or buckled <strong>ankle boots</strong> or Gladiator style flat <strong>sandals</strong>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/festival1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1632 alignleft" title="Festival fashion" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/festival1.jpg" alt="Festival fashion" width="515" height="350" /></a></p>
<p>Left to right: Denim boyfriend shorts, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35716" target="_blank">Uniqlo</a></strong> £14.99; Felicity Gladiator sandal, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35665" target="_blank">Schuh</a></strong> was £29.99 now £20; Festival print vest, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=40563" target="_blank">Republic</a></strong> £16.99; Mint ticking stripe short, Miss Selfridge at <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35577" target="_blank">House of Fraser</a></strong> £25; Mai fringe bootee, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35637" target="_blank">Office </a></strong>£60 now £30; Black Logan cutout T-shirt, <strong>H! by Henry Holland at <a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35528" target="_blank">Debenhams</a></strong> £14.</p>
<p>Work the prairie look with <strong>ditsy print dresses </strong>and<strong> playsuits</strong> in florals or checks. Dresses can be long or short but remember that <strong><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/maxi-dresses/" target="_blank">maxis</a></strong> may trail in the mud. Layer it up with a <strong>cropped denim jacket</strong>, <strong>crochet cardigan</strong> or relaxed <strong>denim shirt</strong>. Layers are the secret for festival dressing, you never know when those clouds and chilly breezes are going to come along.<br />
<a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/festival2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1633" title="Festival fashion" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/festival2.jpg" alt="" width="515" height="350" /></a></p>
<p>Left to right: Cropped denim jacket, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35534" target="_blank">Dorothy Perkins</a></strong> £42; Floral playsuit, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35627" target="_blank">Next</a></strong> £20; Paisley print maxi dress, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35626" target="_blank">New Look</a></strong> £35 now £28; Denim shirt, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35635" target="_blank">Oasis</a></strong> £38 now £20; Cream crochet cropped cardigan, Miss Selfridge at <a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35577" target="_blank"><strong>House of Fraser</strong></a><strong> </strong>£32.</p>
<p><strong>Embellish and accessorise</strong>! Add some sparkle to a simple vest and tee combo with an embellished waistcoat and some tribal jewellery. Load up on chunky bracelets. Top it off with your must-have hat and don&#8217;t forget your sunnies and sunscreen.</p>
<p>And if the weather does turn rubbish &#8211; it is Britain after all - don&#8217;t forget your <strong>parka</strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/spend-or-save-wellies/" target="_blank">wellies</a></strong>.<br />
<a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/festival3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1635" title="Festival fashion" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/festival3.jpg" alt="Festival fashion" width="515" height="350" /></a></p>
<p>Left to right: Embellished waistcoat, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35659" target="_blank">River Island</a></strong> £24.99; Straw trilby, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35627" target="_blank">Next</a></strong> £5.50; Floral printed bangles, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?retailer=35844" target="_blank">Accessorize</a></strong> £10; Black oversized sunglasses, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?category=2000&amp;retailer=35605" target="_self">Marks and Spencer</a></strong> £5; Batwing parka, <strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/london/find/detail/store?category=2027&amp;retailer=35723" target="_blank">Warehouse</a></strong> £55.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Our diaries are full of amazing outdoor events over the next few months. But as ever, the British summer is looking totally unpredictable. Sun or rain &#8211; who knows? So we&#8217;ve decided to be as prepared as the most organised of boy scouts.</p>
<p>Sunglasses and umbrella &#8211; check<br />
Flirty mini and floaty maxi &#8211; check<br />
Cute shorts and utility combats &#8211; check<br />
Flip flops and wellies &#8211; check.</p>
<p>But when it comes to wellies, which kind do you go for?</p>
<p>We&#8217;re coveting Jimmy Choo&#8217;s fabulous new range for Hunter, but we&#8217;re questioning whether we could really expose such exquisite croc-print boots to the extremely harsh realities of festival portaloos.</p>
<p>The original Hunter welly is available in a variety of colours and there&#8217;s a new biker-style festival version with buckle detail to look out for (£145 at Office). It&#8217;s a classic style, mixing practicality with fashion.</p>
<p>More of a glamper than a back to nature style camper? There are plenty of choices around for you. For girls who like their boots cute and pretty, check out the floral and patterned versions at Accessorize and Barratts.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re looking for something in between, we like the Office mid-length rubber boot with quilted texture and available in cream, berry and even pink. </p>
<p>Bring on the festival season. We&#8217;re ready for you, whatever the weather.<br />
<a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/wellies.jpg"><img src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/wellies.jpg" alt="Wellington boots" title="Wellington boots" width="515" height="350" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1454" /></a><br />
Left to right: Red Hunter welly, Schuh £59.99; Blue Julu Jellies lace up boot, Barratts £25; Jimmy Choo for Hunter croc-print boot, £255; Leopard-print welly, Accessorize £25; Bonny quilted rubber boot, Office £25.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Blue is the definitely the colour right now &#8211; maybe add a smattering of gold to be politically correct. </p>
<p>After weeks, if not months, of grey, it&#8217;s time to break out the vibrant colours. It&#8217;s time for change. We&#8217;re not talking nautical navy or neutral ice blue, we mean the vivid, strong, royal blue. Add some energy to your wardrobe with a burst of blue.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s an easy colour to wear too. Whether you&#8217;re fair or dark, blonde or brunette &#8211; you can work the blue look. Be bold with a bright blue dress or trenchcoat. If that feels a bit too much, start with smaller touches &#8211; a belt, shoes, jewellery or bag. Blue looks great with this season&#8217;s utlitiy shades - khaki, cream, black or white.</p>
<p>The blue craze even extends to your make-up. We&#8217;re big  fans of blue nails. Blue also works well on your eyes &#8211; just be careful not to end up looking like Pat Butcher!</p>
<p>Here are a few of our favourite blue items to brighten up your summer wardrobe.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/blue.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1433" title="True blue fashion" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/blue.jpg" alt="True blue fashion" width="515" height="350" /></a></p>
<p>L-R Feather drop earrings, £7 Accessorize; Belted A-line skirt, £35 Topshop; Ruffle front shift dress, £60 Oasis; Rimmel 60 seconds nail polish in Blue my mind, £3.49; Suede ruffle platform heel, £40 Miss Selfridge. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The sun is out, the spring flowers are blooming and we&#8217;re in the mood to overhaul our wardrobe. But where to start? With so many new trends and fabulous new clothes out there, it can be hard to know what to buy, so we&#8217;re going to make that process easier for you with our top five spring must-haves!</p>
<p><strong>1. A Military Cover-Up</strong><br />
Combat coats are back again on the fashion radar. There are so many different styles out there but as long as it&#8217;s khaki, it&#8217;s bang on trend for this season. Make sure you team your military cover-up with something super feminine though &#8211; such as a floral dress. Top-to-toe military should be left to the Territorial Army!</p>
<div id="attachment_1222" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 525px"><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/military.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1222" title="military" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/military.jpg" alt="" width="515" height="350" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">L-R: Parka, £49.99, River Island; Should detail coat, £85, M&amp;S; Drawstring parka, £65, Topshop</p></div>
<p><strong>2. A Satchel</strong><br />
It&#8217;s time to go back to school for this season&#8217;s must-have bag! Satchels are so cool that Mulberry have named one after the queen of cool, Alexa Chung, however, if you can&#8217;t afford the A-list price tag, the high street have lots of great alternatives.</p>
<div id="attachment_1224" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 525px"><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/satchels.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1224" title="satchels" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/satchels.jpg" alt="" width="515" height="350" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">L-R: Grey leather satchel, £45, New Look; Two-tone leather satchel, £50, Topshop; Brown satchel, £22, Accessorize</p></div>
<p><strong>3.  Something Nude<br />
</strong>If it isn&#8217;t flesh toned, then it just isn&#8217;t worth wearing this spring! The easiest way to wear this trend is with a dress &#8211; add black opaques until the weather warms up. If you&#8217;re not brave enough to go all nude, try an accessory such as a leg-lengthening shoe or nude bag.</p>
<div id="attachment_1225" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 525px"><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/nude.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1225" title="nude" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/nude.jpg" alt="" width="515" height="350" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">L-R: Ruffle vest, £18, Dorothy Perkins; Lace-up shoe, £120, Kurt Geiger; J by Jasper Conran Clutch, £35, Debenhams; Feather dress, £150, Oasis</p></div>
<p><strong>4.  Shorts</strong><br />
Skirts are still very much on the radar but &#8217;tis the season to go short in shorts. From military inspired to pretty silk numbers, shorts are the perfect go-everywhere number. Team them with a blazer for the office or with a cami style top for a night out.</p>
<div id="attachment_1227" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 525px"><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/shorts.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1227" title="shorts" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/shorts.jpg" alt="" width="515" height="350" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">L-R: Navy shorts, £35, Warehouse; Pink shorts, £29.50, M&amp;S; Military style shorts, £55, French Connection</p></div>
<p><strong>5. A Mid Heel</strong><br />
We never thought we&#8217;d see the return of the &#8217;90s kitten heel, but it&#8217;s back. Ditch your 5 inchers for something a little more manageable this season. Don&#8217;t stick to boring courts though &#8211; go for interesting heels, wooden soles, bright colours and quirky styles.</p>
<div id="attachment_1229" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 525px"><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/mid-heels.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1229" title="mid-heels" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/mid-heels.jpg" alt="" width="515" height="350" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">L-R: Wooden sandal, £40, Aldo; Stud sandal, £85, French Connection; Woven sandal, £65, Office</p></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sometimes a trend comes out of nowhere and hits you like a wild pack of shoppers going mad for the latest H&amp;M collaboration. After wandering around the shops the other day, we were hit with a vision of spots! From dresses to shoes, bags to skirts, it seems the high street has gone dotty for spots – and now, so have we.</p>
<p>For starters, the spot print conjures up all things fun and spring-like – things that are both much needed in our lives and wardrobes at the moment. They also have a fabulous retro feel to them – Topshop’s spotty shorts (below) definitely have that pin-up appeal – which is a nice counteraction to all that ‘80s garb on the rails at the moment.</p>
<div id="attachment_777" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 525px"><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/go_dotty_for_spots.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-777" title="go_dotty_for_spots" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/go_dotty_for_spots.jpg" alt="" width="515" height="350" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">L-R: Blazer, £50, Miss Selfridge; Skirt, £12, New Look; Dress, £32, Dorothy Perkins; Shorts, £35, Topshop; Purse, £4.50, Accessorize</p></div>
<p>Spots will also continue to be big throughout the spring and summer, when we’ll be throwing our spotty blazer over a striped nautical style dress for that real taste of true British summer style.</p>
<p>Get stocking up on your spotty prints now – this is one spot we certainly don’t mind having!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Since the models at the <a href="http://uk.westfield.com/thevillagelondon/find/detail/store?retailer=37264" target="_blank">Louis Vuitton</a> Autumn/Winter 2009 catwalk show appeared wearing bunny ears, hair accessories have become oversized. It wasn’t a huge surprise. The last few years have seen a rise in all things oversize – from sunglasses to bags – but these were much easier looks to carry off.</p>
<p>Hair accessories have been popular for a while now with the Blair Waldorf <a href="http://www.itv.com/gossipgirl/" target="_blank">Gossip Girl</a> look being seen sported on many a high street. Now, apart from being able to buy these somewhat tame alice bands, the high street has gone crazy for uber-hair accessories – from bunny ears to huge bows.</p>
<div id="attachment_705" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 525px"><a href="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/uber_hair_accessories.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-705" title="uber_hair_accessories" src="http://www.westfieldstylenotes.com/stylenotes/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/uber_hair_accessories.jpg" alt="" width="515" height="350" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">L-R: Red Velvet Bow Headband, £6, Miss Selfridge; Nude Bunny Ears, £18, Topshop; Crazy Flora Catwalk Alice Band, £12, Accessorize</p></div>
<p>This is definitely not a look for the shy and retiring type, however, we think they can definitely add a touch of uniqueness to a boring outfit. Imagine the Topshop bunny ears, above, worn with a simple black playsuit? Or the red bow teamed with a casual blazer and skinny jeans combo? This is one trend we love!</p>
<p>But it’s over to you? What do you think of this latest craze &#8211; is it hot? Or most certainly not?  Leave your comments now.</p>
