Unicorns have been around in one form or another for centuries, and they still hold a special place in our hearts. Whether it’s the mythical creature of legend or the colorful and sparkly toy, unicorns have become a symbol of childhood innocence and joy. So why stop wearing them just because you’ve grown up? Here’s why you don’t have to put away your unicorn wardrobe just yet.
As a little girl, I often dreamt of being a unicorn. I wanted to trot along the billowing clouds with the twittering of birds at my ears. As an adult, I’ve come to find out that life isn’t always about fairy tales and unicorns, But, if you want to inject a little bit of whimsy, charm, and magic into your life; your first stop would be learning how to wear unicorns on a daily basis. With their flowing manes, sparkling horns, and rainbows abound; it can be a little bit challenging to include their beauty and allure into each and every outfit you wear.
So, how do you wear unicorns daily? There are many different types of unicorn accessories and clothing that you can pick and choose from, but, some of the most common are:
1. Necklaces:
Necklaces are a great understated way to wear the unicorn motif. They can be charming silver or gold pendants or a more cartoon inspired necklace on a chain. Unicorn necklaces are a great and understated way to keep the magic close to your heart at all times on a daily basis.
2. T-shirts:
While a t-shirt may be a little bit bolder, they are a great way to add unicorns into your wardrobe. A graphic t-shirt with either a unicorn printed on it or a statement about unicorns will never go out of fashion. There are unicorn tees for men and women.
3. Earrings:
When paired with a necklace or a bracelet, unicorn earrings are another great way to wear unicorns on a daily basis. They can be found in subtle gold or silver tones or you can find brightly colored unicorn plugs.
4. Hair Accessories:
Hair accessories are a more whimsical way to wear unicorns in your every day apparel. From headbands, bows, and clips, the sky is the limit. Just like necklaces they can be understated or loud depending on your preference. If you’re a bit more daring, you can become a unicorn with a horn and ears of your very own with a unicorn plush headband.
The headpiece and lashes give this style a daring flair. Skip them for a look that can be worn anywhere!
5. Hoodies:
Graphic hoodies or cool hoodies with ears and a horn are both options when you’re trying to sport this mythical beast. Of course, an eared hoodie isn’t going to be for everyone, but if you like living on the edge, why not give it a go?
6. Clutch bags, purses, hobo bags:
Clutch bags, purses, or hobo bags are another great way to sport rainbows and unicorns in tandem. They can be fun and flirty or they can be dark and gritty with a little bit of an edge.
Even work attire can have a unicorns when you add them as fun accessories!
7. Rings:
Another unicorn accessory for the more timid person, rings can be found in elaborate detail or a soft reminder of your love of unicorns.
8. Leggings:
You and I know that leggings come in many different colors and prints; it’s no wonder that unicorns have made that list. When paired with a short dress or skirt, printed leggings become the star of the show.
9. Bracelets:
Worn in tandem with earrings, necklaces, and rings, unicorn bracelets can help to boost the overall appeal of your theme throughout your entire outfit.
10. Dresses:
Dresses are available in almost every print you can think of, including bold unicorn prints, and some that may even take you back to the days of watching the Last Unicorn in your childhood.
This dress is perfect for the beach. Wear it as a cover up by day and add leggings to head out at night!
While all of these are great ways to wear unicorns on a daily basis, you should always remember that moderation is key with outfits. Adding a few unicorn elements in each outfit you choose for the day is a great way to show off your love of these magical animals without going overboard.
