Good things happen when Lauren Conrad is doing a press tour, and by good things we mean hair inspiration for days. The 30-year-old is currently out and about promoting her latest book, Celebrate, and her hairstylist Kristin Ess has been on hand to dream up seriously swoon-worthy looks for each event.
Kristin, who is the co-founder of site The Beauty Department, is a master of braids and beach waves, but right now she's having a moment with dainty hair accessories. Over the past week, the hair wizard has affixed a variety of pins and circlets in Lauren's long blonde locks.
The reality star turned lifestyle guru isn't the only one turning us onto delicate hair accessories of late. Chrissy Teigen, 30, and Lupita Nyong'o, 33, have also appeared with dazzling barrettes and garlands in their hair over the past few weeks.

On all of the girls, the accessories were used as a means of elevating simple, everyday hairstyles.
For example, at Lauren's New York book signing earlier this week, Kristin placed a gorgeous pearl bobby pin above a textured low bun.
For another event, the hairstylist fastened a $12 circle-shaped barrette to a half-up, half-down style, giving the classic, low-maintenance look instant polish.
Similarly, for Chrissy's baby shower last weekend, hairstylist Jen Atkin wove a Jennifer Behr Swarovski crystal-encrusted headband through the back of the model's hair, which was waved to perfection.
'I love small hair details on special occasions,' Jen wrote on an Instagram post of the look.

A shining star: For Lupita Nyong'o's opening night in the Broadway show, Eclipsed, hairstylist Lacy Redway elevated a slicked back look with a gold Lelet hair piece
Earlier this month, Lupita wore a custom gold clip from New York-based hair accessory brand Lelet to celebrate the beginning of her Broadway run in the play, Eclipsed.
With only 30 minutes to get the actress ready for the red carpet post-show (make-up artist Nick Barose documented the glam squad's time crunch on Instagram), hairstylist Lacy Redway used the piece to glam up a slicked back look.
Though these pretty pieces are no doubt perfect for formal events like weddings and proms, a hair accessory is also a fantastic way to save you time in the morning. Pop on a sophisticated bobby pin or headband, and suddenly a plain ponytail or thrown-together top knot become head-turning styles.
