If you've fallen off the Parks and Recreation fandom bandwagon since the iconic show had its series finale back in 2015, let me catch you up. Amy Poehler has continued to be a comedic force as an executive producer on multiple titles; Chris Pratt outed himself as the worst Hollywood Chris to ever exist; Adam Scott landed a role in Big Little Lies, which is quickly becoming the internet's most-watched show following the end of Game of Thrones. And then there's Aubrey Plaza.
Plaza, who played everyone's favorite deadpan character, April Ludgate, on the show, has racked up some pretty impressive acting credits including ones from Legion, Monster's University, and Ingrid Goes West, to name a few.
She's also starring in the upcoming reboot of Child's Play, which just had its red carpet debut — you do not want to miss her look for the event.
This week, Aubrey Plaza attended the premiere of her latest movie, Child's Play.
The movie is a modern reboot of the Chucky franchise, which spans a whopping seven films and more than two decades. Long story short, for those that haven't seen any of them, it's about a serial killer who uses voodoo to transfer his soul into a kid's toy, which wreaks havoc on families' lives.
And when she stepped out on the red carpet, the only thing anyone could pay attention to was HER HAIR.
Yes, you're seeing this correctly. The hair on the left side of her part is being held in place by a barrette that's shaped like a giant knife. Can you think of literally any accessory more perfect to sport on the red carpet of a cult-classic horror movie? UM, NO.
I cannot emphasize to you how obsessed I am with this thing.
Upon seeing it, I immediately scrambled to Google to find out if this was something I could purchase, or if this was another one of those heartbreaking scenarios in which a celebrity wears something custom or so expensive that us peasants are not allowed to have it. But it turns out that Plaza's cutthroat accessory is, indeed, available for purchase!
The barrette is made by a brand called Vinca, and it'll only take $32 from your pockets.
And let's be real: That's a heck of a lot cheaper than most of the accessories that rich and famous people wear to red carpet events. The brand describes this hair clip as four-inch and made from acrylic, which means it's probably a lot lighter than you'd think.
Even better, this brand has an entire knife-shaped jewelry collection!
Because giant barrettes are cool and all, but they aren't exactly a day-to-day kind of thing to wear. These small, dangly earrings are the perfect compromise for killer queens who just want a little low-maintenance flair.
Knife pendant necklace, anyone?
All of the accessories in Vinca's knife collection sit in the $20-$40 range, and they're the perfect gift for anyone in your life who takes pride in their inability to play nice with others. Or, you know, a gift to yourself. Why not?
Something tells me April Ludgate would be salivating over this hair piece as much as I am.
Come on, just LOOK AT IT! I'm honestly mad that April wasn't wearing this when she and Andy Dwyer held that surprise wedding ceremony in their house. It's like this was MADE for her. But I guess if April couldn't have worn it, Aubrey is without a doubt the best person to pull it off IRL.
