Usamimi (or sometimes called usagi) headbands were a huge hit last year in Japan (and most parts of Asia). For some reason, the trend never really quite caught on here in the Philippines (and this is only based on my humble observations). However, recently, I've noticed that quite a few high street stores like New Look, H&M and Primark have started selling them. Even though the trend is a whole year late, at least it's in time for Spring/Summer 2012.  Usamimi headbands, also known as the Bunny Ears headband. It's a headband made from a long piece of fabric and a thin wire frame to keep the shape. They can be worn in many different ways and are super popular in Japan. Apparently they were first seen on models in a Marc Jacobs/Louis Vuitton fashion show. I personally think they are pretty cute and I have some myself but would you guys consider wearing one?  It is essentially a piece of cloth wrapped around a wire. Still, whoever thought of it is a genius because this allows the headband to be twisted and bended in all sorts of ways. The name loosely refers to "rabbit ears" because if you style it correctly, you're supposed to look like you have a pair of bunny ears. Mine's a bit too short so it was hard to create the rabbit ears. In any case, I don't think I can pull off the kawaii look.  Here's another relatively recent Japanese trend - the Usamimi Headbands! Literally meaning "Rabbit Ears", it's a fun and playful headband meant to mimic bunny ears. The thin wire inside keeps the shape dutifully and allows the wearer to bend and style it in different ways to create a cute, funky or even sophisticated feel! These delightful accessories are spreading throughout Asian (mostly Japanese) fashion magazines, and it's rapidly becoming a hit among girls of all ages.   These are all from Korea!
