Building A Capsule Wardrobe - In Search Of: The Perfect Leather Headband

Share your headband recommendations in the comments! :) 

Red Leather Headband by Wardani
For those days when you want the hair out of your face, but still want to look polished without dealing with bobby pins..... the right headband is your friend. For years I had a cheap plastic headband that was gifted to me which fit me well (no headaches, yay!) and it had some little embellishments that made it look a little fancy. Well the embellishments fell off and eventually I removed it from my accessories. Lately I'm realizing how much I miss that headband. 

What I tried...

Stretch Knot Headbands
I ordered a stretch knot headband from etsy as they seem to be universally loved plus I love to support an independent maker. Turns out, 1. I think the knot looks dumb on me and 2. The waffle weave one I chose has less stretch and doesn't stay on my weird head the way I want it to. Oh and 3. I realized a lot of people wear these headbands over the ear, but often I want my ears free lol. So these aren't my best bet.
Wire Wrap Headbands
I also tried some cool wire-wrap headbands. These have wire built in to the tips so you can tie them in knots, bows, other wraps/twists and they stay in place! Very cool items and I like them a lot, but they do take some fiddling so it's not as useful for a quick grab-and-go style.

What I decided:

I decided I didn't want anything trendy, stretchy, or too patterned. I want the simple, clean lines of a classic headband, without it being too tight. When thinking of material I decided I don't want anything plastic. I also decided to look into leather headbands so that this will be timeless and of a quality to really last.

Possible Options: Leather Headbands

Picture
Handmade Leather headband Black and Tan - $42 here
Italian Lambskin Leather Handmade in Brooklyn - $50 here
Italian Lambskin Leather Handmade in Brooklyn - $50 here
Italian Lambskin Leather Handmade in Brooklyn - $50 here

Picture
Leather wrapped metal headband - 18.29 here

What I'm Wondering:

I'm wondering if the light stitching on the $42 headband is going to be a regret if I bought that one. Sometimes you just need solids. Possibility: Ask the maker if matching stitching is available.
I'm wondering if the leather wrapped metal headband is going to be too tight and exacerbate headaches?
​
So far the Made in Brooklyn Leather Headbands are my favorite choice. I think they look sleek and classic. Not too wide. They look like they would be comfortable against the head, but you never know till you try. $

$50 for 1 headband seems like a lot at first, but when I bought a stretch knot headband and wire wrap headbands I spent over $50 collectively and still don't have the gap filled so.... it's all in how you look at it.

Here's What I've Tried So Far:

Wardani Italian Lambskin Leather Headband Made in New York

I'm planning to order this headband in black for starters.
​Once I order, receive, and test it, I'll link my review here.

If I love it I could totally see myself adding the lipstick red color for sure! 

Where can you buy it?

You can order the Wardani Leather Headbands easily on Amazon or Etsy. Price is the same so I prefer to use Etsy as the selling fees are generally a touch lower than Amazon.
