Mama/Baby Boho Style: A Lilla Rose Review

extra large fleur-de-lis flexi - don't you love the Marian symbolism?

Back in February, I wrote a review for Lilla Rose independent consultant Anjanette Barr.  I fell in LOVE with my Lilla Rose Flexi clips and months later, you can still find at least one in my hair or in my purse at all times.  Right now, I have my eye on an extra large Flexi (see above) so I can do french twists and buns with it.  

Warning: Flexi clips are addicting.  Kind of like cloth diapers.  You think you can resist, but you just can't!

Double warning: Flexi clips aren't the only amazing hair accessory Lilla Rose sells.  You'll probably also want to try the O-rings, hair bands, and You-pins.  And if you work a job where you have to wear a badge, the badge clips are boss.  Totally wish I had seen those at the beginning of the school year instead of rocking the awful green nylon one that comes gratis.

Anyway, Anjanette saw a facebook post I wrote a while back about how I was drooling over the hair bands.  Are you on Pinterest?  If you are, I'm sure you've seen all the really cute, kind of hippie-inspired, free spirited, messy hair styles with hair bands.  (Ok, so I'm not the best at describing hair styles.  Click here to see what I mean. So cute, right?)  Anyway, Anjanette noticed me pining over a hair band and sent me one to review.

And guess what?  It is the number one used hair accessory in our house.  Let me show you why:

 This is what I call my "gypsy mama going on a stroller walk" look.  Casual and cute.

The hair band also works for more formal occasions like a wedding.  

Since you can barely see the hair band, here's a close up:

  You wouldn't believe how long it took to get this picture in the car on the way to the wedding! My hair was exactly the same as one of the brides maids (accidentally, of course) other than she had a hair band with fake pearls.  So yep, definitely cleans up well.     So it works casual or formal, but that's not even the reason why it's worn almost every day.     Here's why:

The band is adjustable, so at the smallest setting, Lucia gets to have the flower power look!  So cute, right?  She loves it and feels very "bih-tee" in it.  I'm thinking I may have to get another one so I can be one of those annoying matchy-matchy mamas!    

Why I (we) love these hair bands:

• adjustable (obviously)
• comfortable - since they adjust they are never too tight.  I sometimes get headaches from certain types of head bands, but never this one.
• come in a bunch of colors/styles
• reasonably priced (between $17 and $20)
• sold by independent consultants.  I love the personal service independent consultants provide! 
• Lilla Rose exchanges items for free for 90 days and guarantees them against defects for a year.
