Something for the weekend: headbands

Extravagant dressing needn't cost a bomb: for as little as a tenner, a headband can easily ratchet up the impact of your look. A fancy headband demands far less commitment than a hat, and is the more modern approach come wedding season. But the best thing about wearing one is that it instantly improves your posture. Try slouching in one of these – it just isn't possible. Clockwise from top: Sequin feather £10, by New Look . Blue/grey sculpted £89.95, by Cherry Chau, from Selfridges .
