A strawberry on a hair clip has two jobs: it catches your eye and holds some hair in place. If the first job draws you to Jenny Lemons, the second is what will decide whether the clip leaves the dresser.
Jennie Lennick founded the San Francisco brand in 2015. Its brand introduction describes a range of food-inspired and nostalgic accessories, alongside jewelry and stationery, built around color and recognizable objects.
The appeal is easy to understand in an ordinary outfit. A sweater you’ve worn for years can give a small, odd shape plenty of room to show, you don’t have to replace the clothes around it to enjoy the joke.
What the clip has to hold
A few strands falling across your face and a whole head of hair gathered up ask different things of a clip. Start with the accessory that already handles your hair comfortably, then compare the new item’s dimensions and closure with it.
A product photograph can show the little strawberry clearly without showing whether the clip has the capacity you need. Check the individual listing, and ask about a missing measurement before choosing by the illustration alone.
For a gift, the person’s hairstyle is useful information too. Someone who usually wears her hair down may have room for a small accent; someone who gathers it all up may need a different shape.
Let the familiar object stay familiar
The motif can make the gift personal when it recalls a food or object the recipient likes. That connection doesn’t need a matching set of clothes or an explanation about being bold.
If you want to bring the color into an outfit, repeat one small detail elsewhere. A red lip or an olive jacket can give a clip a connection, and a busy print may already supply all the company it needs.
Use the Jenny Lemons collection to find a shape you’d enjoy seeing, then check whether it does the work your hair requires. A playful accessory earns its place when you keep putting it on.
