Mostly hair accessories and a set of earrings. :suki:

I love the brown bow barrette. It’s a smaller size than the popular American Apparel one but still a similar fabric and style. I like it because it’s sweet but not too overpowering so I think it’s good for mature looks. :P

The lace ribbon hairpins are a bit more girly :deco1: and I want to use them in a hair bun style.

And the lebkuchen clip!!!!! :) It’s silly and cutesy but I had to get it!!

Lastly fabric petal earring studs. I try not to buy cheap earrings these days because only my lower ear piercing can wear them, but these were really sweet and large enough that I wouldn’t want to wear them in my top piercing anyway :). :ok: My top piercings can wear cheap “forever 21 cheap” earrings now but I’m still reluctant. :dizzy: They sometimes get irritated by them. So I stick to slightly higher quality metals for now.

I haven’t been into Old Navy in a couple of months so I don’t know how long they’ve had these accessories in store. I was surprised. :!?: Old Navy always had some accessories but this was set up in the middle of the store rack after rack. :deco13: I think they had more than H&M and Forever 21 combined! lolol

But… I’m puzzled and I wanted to see if anyone might know the answers. I tried Google and their official site but no luck. First off, where are these from?! They look European imported. The back lists the Euro price first and the USD price uses a comma, not a period. :x It also lists the product as imported to the US from Germany. This would explain the cute choices I haven’t really seen in US stores. :deco2:

Also, Old Navy plasters its name on everything but this lacks ANY Old Navy branding. It just says “ACCESSORIES” on the front.

So I feel that this might be just a beta test to see if they should expand their accessories maybe????? Does anyone else have these in their stores too? :?:

I recently scanned in a lot of inspo from 古着ＭＩＸガールズ including a lot from the hair arrange insert. I thought I’d go ahead and post them up since they’re already saved for putting on my iPhone. There’s 20+ different arrangements. A lot of them focus on Twist or “ねじる” styles including plays on topsy tail styles. This is just twists and flips that are then pinned into place. :deco2: These are mostly quick and easy hair arrangements. :P
