Etsy Finds: Getting Imogen Heap's Look

This week's Get the Look fashion inspiration is none other than spritely musician Imogen Heap of Frou Frou fame. Imogen's larger than life look is truly inspirational. Get her look with Gilbea!

Indie singer (and song-writer and musician) Imogen Heap not only has a unique musical style—she also has a totally defining indie look. The vintage-looking clothes, feathers and flowers in her hair make her look even more alternative, and definitely handmade! What would she buy on Etsy?

This headband is one of the coolest creations at whichgoose. I'm sure Imogen would love it and wear it to a concert. $35.
