I love Imogene too! Beautiful green color, I have a yellow one from Forever21 Withlove that I can't wait to wear again once it is warm enough to stop wearing hats!
#4 Janna on 2009-02-23 09:32
Since I am loving purple right now, the constance one is my favorite! But I also love the imogene!!
#5 Jessica on 2009-02-23 09:36

#8 Crystal (Homepage) on 2009-02-23 09:52
I'm loving the Lady Montague...I'll never get over the incredible peacock colours. Fingers crossed!
#9 Jaklyn on 2009-02-23 09:58

#12 Susan on 2009-02-23 10:07
I love Imogen! They're all so cute.
#13 Megan on 2009-02-23 10:25
"I have not slept one wink" thinking about the Cymbeline headband! The gorgeous blue and the spots are divine. I think it will look great with my soon to be new short hair! Thank you for this opportunity!
#14 Liz on 2009-02-23 10:27

#15 Amelia (Homepage) on 2009-02-23 10:30

#16 Sabrina on 2009-02-23 10:41
Imogen is my favorite as well - it's both elegant and hip!
#17 Meredith on 2009-02-23 10:45
They're all beautiful (and the name choices are fantastic--I love subtle literary influence)! My favorite is the Cordelia. The shock of green is awesome, and the polka dots are too cute.
#18 Alexandra (Homepage) on 2009-02-23 10:52
wow..they are all so cute..hard to pick just one..but since i have to...i really like the Hippolyta one
#19 milly on 2009-02-23 11:10
I love the Imogen--it's in such a lovely vibrant color!
#20 Trang on 2009-02-23 11:31
Hippolyta! Love that it looks like polka dots.
#21 Angela on 2009-02-23 11:47
Wow, they are all so gorgeous... it took me 15 minutes of looking through them to choose a favorite! But I have to go with Viola. I love the purple and soft grey together.
#22 Phoebe on 2009-02-23 11:53
Imogen is by far my favorite. I can't get enough of the vibrant green!
#23 Amanda W on 2009-02-23 11:56
Love the Imogen piece! Crossing my fingers...
#24 Amber (Homepage) on 2009-02-23 11:57
I'd have to go with the Julia. It's great because with brown and black in there, it would literally go with anything!
#25 allison on 2009-02-23 12:18
Cymbeline and Constance are my faves!!! I love these!!!
#26 Danielle (Homepage) on 2009-02-23 12:21
CONSTANCE plum, black and white is my favorite. Plum is such a beautiful color and it pairs well with the black and white feathers.
#27 Stacy on 2009-02-23 12:35

#34 Jo Anne on 2009-02-23 14:02
They're all so beautiful! I'm diggin' the Viola!
#35 J on 2009-02-23 14:05
beatrice and miranda are both perfect! did you know that Shakespeare supposedly invented the name miranda? and its also a moon orbiting uranus i think. :-)
#36 Caroline on 2009-02-23 14:49
Beatrice...the name and the headband are both lovely!
#37 Gloria on 2009-02-23 15:30

#41 Gaby on 2009-02-23 16:08
I definitely love the Viola. I've got dark hair and I think it would be a great contrast!
#42 Ida on 2009-02-23 16:23
Imogen was my favorite but i feel there's a lot of competition for that one so Katherina is also fabulous!
#43 haj on 2009-02-23 17:10
my favorite is imogen....that emerlad color is beautiful! but I am also a fan of the Emilia.
#44 joleyn on 2009-02-23 17:17
My favorite is imogen, followed by viola. They'd be a conversation piece for a night out for sure!
#45 Jessica on 2009-02-23 17:39
I am in LOVE with Katherina and Maria.

is it possible to request the headpiece on a metal headband rather than an elastic? I find it messy to use the elastic bands... does anyone else have that problem btw?
#46 Julia on 2009-02-23 18:54
I love the Ophelia! Perfect contrast and swirly pattern. :-)
#47 Kitty on 2009-02-23 19:07
constance for the purple, or lady montague for out at night.
#48 tw on 2009-02-23 19:37
Imogen is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! I love it!
#49 Cecilia on 2009-02-23 22:27
1. I totally love Etsy and this prompted me to spend way too much time on there...

2. I was drawn to the Imogen one (http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=20237837) not really sure why, I think I'm trying to get more color into my wardrobe and I just happen to really like that shade of greenish.

3. I did also like the ones with peacock in them (Lady Montague and Lady Capulet).
#50 Justine on 2009-02-24 01:29
DESDEMONA is gorgeous and oh so vintage! love it!!! :-)
#51 Erika on 2009-02-24 02:44
Viola is my favorite! loveee purple
#52 Jessica on 2009-02-24 10:17
I would want to win the "IMOGEN emerald green and black feather headband" becasue I am so into green and it would look sharp against my blonde hair. --> I actually just bought the "EMILIA brown, white and black feather headband" in New York because I loved it so much. :-)
#53 Leslie Pigue on 2009-02-24 10:46
Oberon is definately my favorite. Although I'd love to have them all!
#54 Holly (Homepage) on 2009-02-24 13:32
I LOVE the HERMIONE!!!! It's gorgeous!
#55 crystalcorrin on 2009-02-24 19:22
The featured "Miranda" is my favourite--I love the rust-coloured feathers!
#56 IMP (Homepage) on 2009-02-24 20:38
Thanks for offering this contest. Good luck everyone. And me!

Depending on my focus of dress on any given day, many of them are very acceptable with my wardrobe. I really like Aemilia, Cymbeline, Viola, Silvia, Desdemona, Imogen, Olivia, Lady Montague and Rosalind.

Of the red focuses, I wish there could be more of a blue tone red. Perhaps the computer monitors are not doing justice, though?

Happy Fat Tuesday!
#57 Mary on 2009-02-24 23:07
The Regan green and gold is absolutely gorgeous.
