The One With the Scrunchie

Updated: May 13, 2020

Every few months, new accessories become, for a lack of better words, modish. This season it's scrunchies and they are back after decades of being "uncool."








Contrary to what Carrie Bradshaw might think, scrunchies are making a comeback. Every Sex and the City lover knows that episode where Carrie and her then boyfriend get into a huge fight over the fact that he made his main character in his novel wear a scrunchie.


She says, and I quote: “You have your leading lady running all over town wearing a scrunchie. A SCRUNCHIE!" 

Unlike Ms. Bradshaw many women today love a good scrunchie. For someone who has always hated wearing her hair in any type of up-do, the scrunchie is the perfect solution to my never ending problem.


But the scrunchie of the modern age is nothing like what you see in the 80’s workout videos. These trendy scrunchies come in sophisticated florals, elegant silks and trendy patterns-- nothing like their 80’s parallel. 



I have rounded up my favorite scrunchies that would make even Carrie Bradshaw proud. 


The Fashionista 





For any girl who loves accessories, this one’s for you. This paisley print is a perfect additive to any outfit--especially in the summer.


The Charlotte York




Nothing says class like pearls. If you want to add a little elegance to your plain old jeans and sweater look--a scrunchie and pearl combo is an easy additive.


The Athlete




If I have to go somewhere after the gym, I always wear a scrunchie. It keeps my hair from getting creased and can also be a versatile look if I want to quickly throw on a different outfit. 


The Town & Country



For any country girl who loves all things plaid, this checkered scrunchie will be a perfect addition to your wardrobe. 



The Blaire Waldorf



Nothing says Blaire Waldorf like hair accessories. Adding a cute polka dot scrunchie to your blazer/skirt combo is sure to do everyone's favorite gossip girl justice.



Here is an array of my go-to's for all things scrunchie related:
