These days bows are making big head-to-toe fashion statements, adding both a youthful and all-grown-up glam touch to any garment or accessory. We're big on The Bow again this fall, and it looks like this trend is here to stay at least through next summer.

	on Nov 18, 2010 Jenny Jen said: I absolutely, hands down am head-over-heels in love with these bow pick's! Especially the bow head band (#7) in the last section. Definitely Minnie Mouse-esque, but I totally dig that 'look at me'/'quirky' look. Forever21 here I come.
