From pearl hair barrettes to bobby pins, and snap clips to slides, this hair accessory trend is about to get a bridal twist. Effortlessly pretty and unapologetically feminine, bridal hair slides give your wedding-day look a finishing touch, whatever hairstyle you've got planned. Wear them tucked behind an ear, incorporated into a braid, or placed front and centre. Acting as jewellery for your tresses, they'll elevate any wedding hair look.
Bridal hair styles can be sweet, nostalgic, incredibly cool, or, on rare occassions, all three! The super stylish Laura Jackson wore them for her wedding in 2017, and we've been smitten ever since! So today, we're showing you our favourite examples of this bold new bridal accessory trend and sharing where to find wedding-worthy hair slides.
1. Loose, beachy waves are the perfect partners for pearl bridal hair slides like these chic Jennifer Behr pieces.
2. We love the fashion-forward look that wearing multiple slides creates, but there's something so cool and contemporary about a single, statement piece. Case in point, this pocket-friendly, faux pearl barrette from Oliver Bonas.
3. Simple rhinestone bobby pins can add the perfect amount of sass to your bridal look. We're loving these minimal hair pins to adorn your locks from the Kitsch X Justine Marjan collaboration.
4. These are not your granny's pearls! This Lelet NY pearl pin is perfect for holding back tousled locks or to set a sleek ponytail in place.
5. Bridal hair slides don't have to be elaborate or oversized to make a statement, as proven by this Jennifer Behr beauty.
6. Oversized pearl barrettes are the perfect partner to Hollywood glam waves. Go extra romantic and double up your slides as in this darling look by Linton and Mac.
7. The perfect bridal hair clip for modern brides, this Alexandre de Paris creation mixes gold and pearl with just a hint of sparkle.
8. Romantics and bohemian brides alike will love this laurel leaf and crystal hair clip by Agnes Walker via Not on the High Street.
9. This hand-drawn crystal stars set from Lelet NY will add a little celestial sparkle to any wedding hair look.
10. Worn in a cluster, this set of preserved-flower pins from BHLDN is perfect for a sleek bridal updo.
11. Take styling cues from Instagram stars like Holly T and wear multiple slides at a time! You can find similar ones at Oliver Bonas.
12. Show us anything personalised and we're sold! This uber cool personalised clip by Tilly Thomas Lux is not only perfect for rocking your new name on the big day but would be a chic choice for your hen do, your honeymoon or maybe just to do the groceries!
