**NEW DESIGN** Where are you going with that flower in your hair, girl? Salsa dancing? Wedding on the beach? Outdoor concert? Wherever you go, eyes will follow.
A comment on this site suggested that we make a patterned flower. Why not? This one is black chiffon with white and metallic gold dots, with a beaded center detail–light and sheer for summertime, with just a speck of glitz for evening. As always, it comes with a hair clip and a brooch pin. When you wear it, you’ll appreciate our trick of making these flowers with the bottom layer curved to hug your head…or shoulder, or wherever you might pin a thing of such beauty.

Time was, a young man would place a blue cornflower in his lapel to indicate that he was unmarried. Hence, the name bachelor’s button. Who’s to say a girl can’t send a subtle message of her own? Nowadays, the cornflower stands for hope in love.
The pale green headband gives this fascinator the feel of summertime, and sets off the royal blue flower and feathers. A little touch of crystal to takes things up a notch. You may buy it to go with your prom or bridesmaid dress, but we guarantee you’ll be pairing it with sundresses and cutoffs all summer long.
Let us know if you’d prefer a headband of a different color.

We admit it, we’ve become obsessed with these handmade flowers. This one is a spectacular deep blue organdy that looks black from certain angles. Don’t rule it out for a bride: midnight is the new “something blue” and we’re getting requests for navy blue birdcage veils, too. (Yes, we do them!)
These flowers come with a clip for the hair and a brooch pin. They make great bridemaids’ gifts. How about letting your ‘maids decide for themselves which way to wear them–in their hair, on their shoulder, at the waist, or…? Email orders@overthetopfascinators.com for a special price when you order 3 or more.
Not just for weddings, these flower are fabulous with salsa and ballroom dance attire, prom dresses, and …?

Ah, those languid days by the water…she thinks there might be somewhere she’s supposed to be, or something she should be doing, but really, how important could it be? All that matters is the sun, the lake, and how incredibly hot she looks. Her fascinator is made of grassy green feathers and paper flowers with a sweet vintage feel. Tucked into the most casual of ‘dos, it turns the simplest sundress into an ensemble that could go straight to dinner and dancing. Or just sit right here. Mmmmmm…………

A mini version of Onion Top. It’s kind of punky with the frayed onion-bag netting; a version with millinery netting could be more refined, if you prefer. This one comes on a small barrette, perfect to pop into your ‘do wherever it looks best. Works great with jeans… shown here with a bridesmaid’s dress. What would you pair it with? What wouldn’t you?

How pretty is she? Ruffles is a dramatic fascinator with curly feathers, a rhinestone brooch and scattered Swarovski crystals. This comb is one of the most versatile, and would look lovely over a low bun, tucked into a French twist, holding back a cascade of curls or supporting a mantilla. The small size makes it a good balance for short hair, too. Mother of the groom, perhaps?

Fresh as a morning in May, but with plenty of drama for evening, here’s a fascinator that can liven up a sundress or polish the look of a prom dress. It’s got lots of feathers, both in volume and variety, so it can hold its own nestled amongst a lot of hair. Go ahead — dance till dawn and wear it to breakfast, too.

She knocks, she waits, she pretends not to care if he answers. Nothing pushy here, just a sweet finishing touch. A true-blue silk flower with a few whisps of irridescent peacock feather and maribou, plus a tiny pouf of tulle, this mini-fascinator is equally at home at the prom, on bridesmaids, at the Dodger game… or visiting a “friend”.
