You could try Tigerlilly, www.tigerlillyjewelry.com

Seems a bit pricey, but you may find something!

The White Aisle stuff is all perfectly nice, but nothing really stood out to me. . .

Just Wondering - Thanks for the TigerLilly link; I hadn''t seen them before. . . of course I am no drooling over $70 hairpins

Anybody seen anything similar for a bride on more of a budget?

veilshop.com is where I got mine. I got swavorski crystals...you can get any color you want.

Oooh, thanks Sarah! I love these in silver!

Why don''t these sites come up in a google search for "bridal hair accessories?" I kept getting the same 3 sites - I''m a girl who wants options!

stars have a personal significance for me (i even have 9 of them tattooed across my lower back!), so i am working them into my attire as well...along with some bright blue shoes! i'm sooo excited! anywho, hope that helps you out some, and post back with what you decide to go with- i'm nosy!

 

[buttercup80]

Doodle - you are my new best friend! I''m going to go check all those links now. . .

I have a small star tattooed on my hip and I''m having blue shoes, too! What area are you in?

 

[buttercup80]

I love these from the first link and the price is right! The only thing is that I had originally thought of hair pins - do you think the hair screws will work with the hair styles I was thinking of?

Also, does anyone have any experience with the hairs screws? Will they stay secure? I don''t want them to dangle or loosen or anything?

i''m a georgia peach.

i have quite a few wedding twins on here, which is really funny because i have to go to the weddings of 11 friends in the year before my wedding, and all of theirs have been/are going to be totally different from mine, but on here, i''ve had several "me too!" moments. i think it''s because PSers are just better.

i''ve used hair screws before without any problems, but i think it really just depends on whether whomever put them in did so correctly. a really good hairstylist could make a bowling ball stay in your hair if they tried hard enough! if you like ''em, go for ''em!
