These elastics aren't completely strange, but they're definitely unique and certainly chic. If there's one thing I love about Juicy Couture, it's the way they do accessories, from hair hands to handbags. The charms on these elastics are too cute for words – especially if you're all about love and peace!

This is by far the best strange but chic hair accessory I've ever come across. Sure, this is a little pricey for a headband, but if you're a ginormous Alice in Wonderland/Mad Hatter fan – like me! – then it seems more than fair. This is so cool, I think I'd give up buying books for a month just to have it. The way that teacup perches! And yeah, the Queen of Hearts is kind of kawaii (!!), but who cares?

I'm a huge fan of hats, although my tastes normally runs toward fedoras and the like. However, there's something so saucy and sassy about this hat that I want it right now! I love the silver stars accenting it, and that veiling is absolutely gorgeous. If you want to add a little mystery and old school glamor to your look, this is the way to do it.

If you've ever felt pretty as a peacock, then this is definitely the strange but chic hair accessory you need to show it! I adore peacock features, and this one is particularly gorgeous. All that blue is so pretty, and for a change, I love the way the gold accents it. With all the colors, sequins, and beads, you'll mimic the majestic peacock with no problem!

This summer, if you worry about your complexion, why not try a sunhat? Why not, in particular, try a big, bold sunhat like this one? It's so jaunty and colorful! Maybe not so strange but, again, it's definitely chic. That silhouette, especially, takes it a step above the ordinary.

I absolutely adore little hat/headbands like this. Since the hat is attached to a comfortable band, you can wear it at this kind of jaunty, severe angle without worrying about losing it. It's quirky, it's cool, it's strange, and it's chic. How could you ask for anything more than that?

If you're candy sweet and colorful, look no farther than these adorable hair clips. They look quite realistic – like you could pop in a miniature sized dime and get a bunch of gumballs. If you want to look bright and cheery, you don't need anything more than these pins – unless you're interested in the matching necklace, of course!

One of the biggest parts of the Kentucky Derby is the fashion – specifically the hats. If you want to channel that spirit in a smaller package, this hair clip is perfect for you! Different from the aforementioned headband, this clip can be placed anywhere. The hat uses a couple of alligator clips for extra support. Can you get over all those flowers, all that lace?

This mod hat is a gorgeous strange but chic hair accessory, and it's another one that I'd love to have right now. I love the mod look, and although the bright dots on this hat seem simple, they pack a huge wallop. I love the hat itself as well – the shape, the silhouette. It takes a brave girl to pull off a bucket hat, but if you try it, you'll never be disappointed!

Finally, if you love ponies, you've got to have this hair clip. How cute is it? More than that, it's beautifully molded. Look at the way it's sculpted and etched – it looks like a miniature pony! Granted, it's in magenta, but in the best tradition of My Little Ponies, there's nothing wrong with that!
