Does the winter chill mean that your head is feeling a little colder than usual? Then look no further than this seasons uber retro answer to keeping warm.
For those brave enough, the turban bags tonnes of style points, and on the scale of warmth, is the next best thing to a full blown fur cossack hat. They've already hit numerous runways, and inevitably Kate Moss has been pictured in a rather glossy number, yet they've still got the fresh, cool kudos.
If 'turban' is still sounding a bit too 'fortune teller', then a knitted version may hit the nail on the head. This orangey-red one from ASOS gives off that cool vibe, while still looking cosy and oh so wintry.
If, however, you are after the retro 'washer woman turned super model at the beach' look, then a head scarf may well be the answer. Tied further back from the face with a clear front knot, and appropriate 'up-do' for the hair, all that is needed are a pair of round frame glasses, a vintage bag, et voila, no time machine is needed. This look from Peter Som certainly pulls the look off, and to fantastic effect.
And finally, if old hollywood glamour is what you're after, then look no further than influence from the 1920s. Black is the colour to wear, and fear not extra glitz, sequins, and even feathers. For when you want to impress, vintage is the answer, but finding one is the problem. For those of us who don't have the time, Carin Wester has a few glam ones in her latest collection, and Rokit Vintage has a more traditional, and accessoris-able version.
There are so many ways to jump on the turban-trend band wagon, even head bands for the less adventurous, but I know that mine will definately be worn with some horn rimmed glasses, lots of jewellery and gems, and a big (faux) fur, so that I can really be taken back to the talkies.
