Satin Bow Barrette With Long Ribbon Tails

Wide satin ribbon tied into a generous bow, with two long tails that fall softly down the back of the head. The finish has a gentle sheen rather than a hard shine, so it reads dressy without tipping into costume. A sturdy alligator clip sits behind the knot, holding a half-up section or a low ponytail through a long day. Eleven shades run from soft neutrals and blush tones through to deep charcoal and sage, so there is one for a wedding and one for a Tuesday. Clip it at the crown for drama or low at the nape for something quieter.
