Fashion Blog Dedicated To Olympic Scrunchies Emerges

Fashion Blog Dedicated To Olympic Scrunchies Emerges


With the London games still in full swing, it seems everyone has come down with a case of Olympic fever. And while most are glued to their TV sets hoping to catch a glimpse of the newest athlete to win that coveted gold, there are some more fashion-focused viewers who are interested in one thing only: the scrunchies.

The scrunchie, as you probably know, is an elastic hair tie covered in a ton of fabric. They were most popular in the '80s-'90s, but still pop up now and then on the likes of a wide array of Olympians, as well as on Hilary Clinton.

"Olympic Scrunchies" is a fabulous Tumblr dedicated to the most fantastic array of Olympians and their hair accessories of choice that was discovered by the folks at Racked.

A blog dedicated to the hair accessory, the site proudly declares: "There should be Olympic medals for the best scrunchies."

While the blog hasn't been updated in a few months, its relevance is clearer than ever amidst the excitement of the 2012 Olympic games. I mean, just look at it's most recent post:

"1 white angelic Nancy Kerrigan scrunchie, and 1 black hot mess Tonya Harding scrunchie."
