Be inspired- flower power




Flowers in the hair not only make a exceptional accessory, especially for some particular events in life, such as wedding (don't mind us wearing them a bit more often) but also have a strong cultural aspect. For example, in some areas of the world, such as Polynesia, it  may hold an information about your love life (a flower behind the right ear - looking for a lover). In any way, it makes you look ethereal and somewhat fairy-like.
Some people's visual identity is partially or solely based on using these mother nature's gifts, as we can see in the cases Frida Kahlo or Carmen Miranda. It can not be a coincidence that these two great women were also great artists, unique, different from the rest in their expression. 
Today, so it seems, flower power is mostly seen in fashion editorials and runway, and not as a part of every day style, perhaps because it is always easier to be a part of the crowd than to stand out, thus more uniformed trends now prevail. But, guess what, hippy way of looking at life still survives this world full of conformists.
Notion: because of the longevity, many choose to go with no-natural hairpieces, but if you decide to go for the real one, be informed about the symbolism of it. for example, Dahlia flower can symbolize a warning or wildness, while Camellia is a sign of deep longing for your beloved.
