Bambako Headbands

Rule No. 10: Make it beautiful.

Designer Abigail Ricarte took to heart the words of wisdom from her idol Martha Stewart and, after getting iced by the icing queen herself, created a line of headbands named Bambako.

The daedal designs include colorful plumes of all species, ribbons in soft plaids and vibrant stripes, and bows big and small. Each headband has a playful name to accompany its vibe.

If you’re feisty, the lime green Firecracker should suit. Posh princesses can channel Notting Hill with its prim and proper satin bow. And if you’re just an all around cool cat, Motown will prove it.

Ricarte will even create custom pieces for brides-to-be.

Giving the design diva a run for her money.
