Colette Malouf's hair accessories have had cameos on Gossip Girl, been sported on the runway for Michael Kors and Derek Lam, and if you're anything like us, probably also made appearances on your own head.

After more than 20 years in business, this native New Yorker has steadily conquered the fashion world, one bejeweled hair clip at a time. This season, she's taken cues from the designers themselves by creating sketches starring her own elaborate hairpieces, pins, and headbands.

And because everyone knows that behind every hairstyle is a secret weapon, we've picked our favorite awesome products below, so you can get final result even easier.

So whip out your brushes and take note- summer beauty school is now in session.
