Baby’s breath are pretty versatile flowers. They have been used for a long time for decoration purposes in wreaths and runners and have also been part of wedding bouquets. They have now also made their way into bridal headdresses and floral jewelry as the modern favorites. Lightweight and hence comfortable to carry, these flowers are a popular contemporary choice, be it for formal events, cocktail parties, brunches or weddings. These flowers can gracefully do any aesthetic, from minimalistic and understated to dramatic and pompous.
Baby’s breath can make for gorgeous and trendy flower jewelry for adorning your hands and wrists in the form of corsets and wristlets that can be flaunted on prom or formal. They can even be worn by bridesmaids to accentuate their look. One of the most alluring options for traditional Indian wedding attires, however, is the mesmerizing haath phool made of baby’s breath and other colorful blossoms.
When it comes to accessorizing the hair for some special occasion, be it a party or a wedding, there is nothing quite like baby’s breath. These flowers look amazing entwined with your tresses in fabulous hairdos and are, at the same time, subtle enough so as to not eclipse the rest of the attire or look over the top. These dainty, angelic blossoms can be arranged in little clusters that can then be tucked in ponytails or haphazardly pinned to flowing curls in a natural-looking hairstyle with braids, twists or half-tied hair for a Greek Goddess appearance.
For traditional Indian weddings, buns are the most popular way to go. Comfortable and manage, they secure your hair fashionably. Give them a contemporary twist and break the routine of using the regular jasmine or mogra gajra by swapping them for baby’s breath. Beautiful flower veni comprising baby’s breath alone or paired with other florals can be pinned to outline your bun or trail along your crown in a twist or braid. A more flamboyant option that is sure to attract all attention is covering up the entire bun in a floral mesh, such as one made of baby’s breath and luscious pink roses in a soft, pastel palette with a princessy appearance.
Loose braids have become a booming trend to accompany traditional wear. They look super stylish and are ideal for long hair if you want to avoid the headache of a heavy bun on your head. Accessorize them lightly with natural or artificial baby’s breath tufts, pull out a few strands to hang astray, and you’re good to go!
Here are some gorgeous ideas for eye-catching hair accessories made out of baby’s breath, the commonly seen bridal flowers in white weddings. A designer bonnet is probably the most unique and bold way to dress up on your wedding and will ensure all eyes trained on you as you walk down the aisle. Tiaras or crowns consisting of vines of fresh baby’s breath or subtler additions of artificial flowers are also a popular choice among brides and bridesmaids alike.
