Retro Hairstyles for Today's Modern Woman

(Since we just featured hairstyles of young Hollywood’s up-and-coming It girls, it just seems fair to look back at hairstyles of classic style icons of the past.)

On January 11, 1935, Amelia Earhart became the first person (man or woman) to fly solo across the Pacific. In honor of her pioneering spirit, let’s look at some hairstyles from the past that are still chic and appropriate for today’s modern woman.

There is a reason why Audrey Hepburn is such a fashion icon – her timeless beauty and her classic sense of style are as pretty and relevant today as they were 50 years ago. Copy her classic high pony for an elegant, understated look. Accent it with the Bridget hair bow, a 1 ¾” grosgrain boutique style baby bow on a pinch clip. The Bridget is available in cream, lavender, white, pink, shocking pink, and red.

Amelia Earhart’s short, spunky, fuss-free hairdo is a boon for busy, working moms (and female aviators!) everywhere. Use the Retro Dots Clipettes Prints to keep short pieces of hair off your face. The Retro Dots Clipette is a brown ribbon with pink and green retro dots.

Brigitte Bardot’s long, messy bedhead is still as fashionable today as it was 50 years ago. Pin back stray tresses with the Devyn, a color block grosgrain bow. This 3 ½” sequin/silk organza bow on a pinch clip is available in bubblegum and light blue.   

Sophia Loren’s ‘do might seem a bit dated, but a little less teasing at the crown would make this a more modern 'do. Instead of an animal print fur coat, highlight your look with the Tatum bow. The Tatum is a 2” grosgrain animal print baby bow with tails. It is available in black zebra, light brown giraffe and dark brown leopard.

Give Hair Accessories as Baby Gifts this Holiday Season

Hair accessories aren’t traditionally given as baby gifts because hair clips usually just fall off babies’ wispy, downy hair. But with Hair Clippy, clips won’t slip or fall out of your baby’s hair! Our velvet-wrapped clips are guaranteed non-slip and won’t tug at your baby’s delicate hair.

This holiday season, what could be a better stocking stuffer than a set of Baby’s First Hair Clips? Our best-selling hair clips and baby bows have been packaged into sets of three and are perfect for that perfect little girl in your life! Our gift packs come with an organza bag and are ready for gift-giving.

Tried-and-true traditional baby gifts are still an excellent choice, though. Here are some fun examples:

Layette – This set of clothes for a newborn baby is a most welcome baby gift, as babies need a lot of clothes for all those changes throughout the day.  A set usually contains a combination of onesies, swaddling blankets, baby washcloths, socks and booties and other articles of clothing for baby.

Soft toys – Something for baby to cuddle (and chew on!), these traditional baby gifts usually come in cute and adorable animal shapes and are made of soft materials that are safe for your baby.

Bath sets – You may get a pre-packaged set or mix and match products to create a personalized set. Be sure to include gentle shampoo and cleansers plus moisturizers for baby’s delicate skin and hair.

Books – Reading to baby is a great way to develop a mother/father and baby bond. Baby will be soothed by hearing a parent’s voice. Look for books with colorful pictures and simple words for babies to understand as they begin to develop their minds and imagination.

Music CD – A great personalized baby gift. You can make a set of CDs with different themes: one CD might contain a set of soothing tunes for downtime and another might have stimulating music for playtime.

Baby Bows for Her Sunday Best

Last week your baby got all dressed up for Halloween, now we dial it back a bit with a prim yet stylish look fit for family Sundays.

Whether you take her to Church or visit grandma’s house, this pair of No Slippy Hair Clippy bows will keep her hair perfectly place, with a dash of elegance.

Favorite GranddaughterSundays are popular days for family get-togethers, and the perfect opportunity for your daughter to visit her grandparents.

Be sure to dress her up warmly, and consider the Sam baby bow (below in French Blue and Shocking Pink) to boost her cuteness levels to downright irresistible!

Adoration
Most Sunday congregations observe a dress code, and your baby is no exception. Instead of taking her straight from crib to church in her crinkled jammies, slip her in a pretty cotton dress in beautiful shades of white or tasteful pastels.

Accessorize with the Payton baby bow (below in Bubblegum, Red and Shocking Pink) for a touch playfulness.

Each Payton baby bow is attached to an alligator mini pinch clip that stays on no matter how many admirers cuddle her or stroke her lovely hair. This double-dotted hair accessory also comes in two darker colors – Black and Navy.

So don’t drop the ball on Sundays. As one of the few days when your newborn is expected to be turned out, you should dress her to impress.

Browse the No Slippy Hair Clippy store for more baby hair accessories for Sundays and weekend get-togethers.

Timeless Baby Photos

Baby photographs are memories that should be cherished forever. Time moves so quickly that it’s important to capture those treasured moments; your baby’s early days deserve to be preserved.

Here are a few tips on how to ensure you capture the best images possible:

A simple outfit: Consider a classic, simple outfit so she doesn’t look too overdressed in those photos. There’s a tendency to go with a matching ensemble, but this isn’t necessary. Also avoid busy patterns that distract from your baby’s natural.

Capture her smile: Consider her mood — do your best to make sure she’s in a good mood, and try to make her as comfortable as possible during the shoot. Bring some toys and perhaps a music box to keep her interested.

The perfect accessory: Picking the right hair accessory is also important, choose an accessory that perfectly complements your baby’s personality, and helps accentuate her natural beauty. Remember that all No Slippy Hair Clippy baby accessories are designed for snug, yet comfortable fit.

For brightly lit photos, consider simple, bold accessories like the Haley – Mini Grosgrain Baby Bow®:

For a more classic look with softer lighting, the Audrey – Organza baby Bow® With Tails is the perfect choice. Go for simple, elegant colors like white, cream or light blue:

The simple design of the Grace – Organza Flower with Pearls is perfect for capturing a classy and neat image of your baby. You can choose from the three different colors — pink, white and cream — to match the outfit of your baby:

To capture those timeless baby pictures, complete your baby’s outfit with an adorable baby hair bow to help make them memories you’ll treasure forever!

“Durable hair clips fully lined in grosgrain, featuring a special non-slip grip for gentle and secure hold,” says the number 1 children’s fashion magazine when talking about our No Slippy Hair Clippy assorted clipettes™.

We’re thrilled to be highlighted by such a prestigious magazine. You can spot our clips on page 62 of the new July 2011 issue, with Nia Vardalos and her newly adopted daughter on the cover. Or visit the Baby Couture blog to get a glimpse of our Valerie zebra print bow and Birthday fun clip.

You can also buy a copy on magazine newsstands. It has great stories of real and celebrity parents describing the joys of parenthood, plus stylish fashion tips for your newborn or toddler.

Time to Go Red, White and Blue!

Uncle Sam style top hats may get a giggle, but they just won’t do if you want your daughter to look lovely for the parades.

So get inspired by the national colors of red, white and blue. You can get hair accessories in patriotic hues at the No Slippy Hair Clippy® store.

Vivid Red

The color red has a bold personality, so wearing a bow in this stand-out shade lends an aura of inner strength. The Dottie bow in smooth grosgrain material carries a pattern of cute mini-dots that pop out from the deep royal red. For styling, you can pin this bow over pigtails or go for the trendier braided bow if she has longer hair.

Wholesome White

White evokes purity and grace, and your daughter can imbibe these qualities when she wears the sweet Emily bow. The grosgrain ribbing gives this design a subtle flair, and can be paired easily with the more festive holiday costumes. Whether she’s marching down Main Street as part of the parade or sitting at your side watching the floats pass by, she’ll always look fresh wearing this two-tailed bow.

All-around Blue

Blue is proud and versatile, as can be seen in the deep navy of the Abby bow. Beautiful stitching and deep color make this a great accessory no matter her outfit.

Brand New Byrnn

And introducing our brand new Brynn bow, available in a variety of colors including Red, Shocking Pink, Dark Brown-Pink, and beautiful Navy pictured above. Whatever your choice, remember to have fun, take lots of pictures, and treasure these moments.

Happy Fourth of July, from No Slipply Hair Clippy!
