Jennifer Love Hewitt is loving the revival of butterfly hair clips

The 45-year-old actress admits she is thrilled the hair accessory is making a comeback and joked that it was “probably illegal" for her to wear them to movie premieres back in the day.

Asked what popular '90s items would make a good present this Christmas, she told E! News: "I mean, first of all, anything from the 90s, period. It's so funny how my kids talk about the 90s now. They're like, 'Oh, the 90s.' I'm like, 'That was my time. The 90s were great.'"

She added: "One thing that I'm really obsessed with that has made a comeback is butterfly hair clips. They’re a great throwback! I have so many pictures of myself wearing those clips. I think I even wore them to premieres, which might be illegal, but it worked!"

The ' I Know What You Did Last Summer' star - who has Autumn, 10, Atticus, eight, and two-year-old Aidan with husband Brian Hallisay - suggested: "They’re perfect for putting in dolls' hair if you're gifting little girls or in their hair for middle school girls."

Elsewhere, Jennifer revealed that her ideal pampering session would include a bath with a sugar scrub and candles.

Sharing her festive beauty gift suggestions, she said: "One of the things on the list is the Coffee Shop Brown Sugar Scrub.

"Anything for the bath feels decadent and special. A candle paired with a scrub would be perfect too. I just love feeling pampered!"
