Line Lust: Kitsch

I am obsessed with pretty, soft hair ties and delicate jewelry. Kitsch does both of these things to perfection! Their hair ties come in fun patterns, colors, and textures. My favorites are the tie-dyed and ombre hair ties that can be doubled as fun bracelets. They also have a jewelry line and I am specifically drawn to the delicate necklace and earring sets sold on fun Polaroid cards. This little evil eye is the perfect everyday piece. I wish all of my necklaces were this length. As a fairly small person, I often find that even "short" necklaces are a bit too long for me, hitting awkwardly at my shirt neckline (instead of delicately below my collar bone).

Hair ties c/o Kitsch / All Eyes On You necklace c/o Kitsch / First knuckle ring, Catbird / Druzy bracelet and Ombre bead bracelet by me!

You can get your own hair ties and jewelry from Kitsch on their website or at Anthropologie, Nordstrom, Urban Outfitters, Free People or find your local retail locations here.

Trend Spotting: Soft Elastic Hair Ties (+bracelets!)

Tired of traditional ponytail holders that break and dent your hair? These hair ties, made from a hand knotted soft and stretchy material, are just the solution! They double as bracelets, and with the endless colour and pattern possibilities, you can be sure to find one (or two!) to coordinate with your outfit.

I've been seeing these soft hair ties popping up everywhere. I can't seem to find who made them first (Emi-Jay maybe? Let me know if you know!), as I like to give credit where credit is due...but it's likely there are so many brands and versions because they look relatively easy to make. If you know how to tie a knot, you can go into business. Not looking to DIY? Here are some of my favorite hair ties below!
