A Simple Black Headband

Right now I very much want a simple black headband, a thick cotton one, that I can wear Brigitte Bardot-style.

It keeps hair from your face on breezy summer days, and more importantly, it's incredibly chic.

Brigitte is best known for the iconic black headband she wore in the French new wave film, Contempt, which played out in Rome and Capri and was directed by Jean-Luc Godard. Here's that famous look.

But the photo below is one of the most alluring I've ever seen of her. Reason #1 why I'd like a simple black headband, pronto.
