holy turbans, batman!

Look at me, look at me.


Clockwise from left, 1, 2, 3, 4

I recently fell in love with the turban headband trend (and wanted to buy a handmade one)
CHECK!
So now- I am having trouble styling it for everyday life.
I never turn down a headband.  So check out how I styled it and let me know what you think.

The turban itself is cranberry red. I love love love the color, the possibilities are endless.
It is so well made and comfortable.
 Let's get down to it.

1) Turbo-Turban: the most normal way to wear it.  Over hair that is completely down. May look better with hair in waves.
2) Fake Bangin': aka I pinned my hair back to appear as if I had bangs.  I'm anti-bangs for myself, but everyone wearing turbans HAVE bangs.  SO I gave it a go, P.S. totally fooled my family.
3) Party Pony: My hair is parted like normal, with a normal ponytail and some volume.
4) Vintage Vibe: Front of hair pinned back.  Turban worn like regular headband.

So what do y'all think is the BEST look for me?
Which one would YOU wear?

I bought this turban from one of my favorite blogger's online stores.  
Kim from Yellow Songbird sold them bid-like on twitter.
She's the cutest.



^ This is how Kim wore it ^

Whoa, that grid of pictures is like Bekah overload.
Sorry...
you're welcome.

I got dressed today... AND I looked super cute.

  2. You look SO CUTE with bangs! I can't believe they're DIY bangs! Totally had me fooled too! I love look #3 with your hair in a pony! I think it would look really cute with the turban know pulled slightly to the side. I've been eying this look for a while, and now you totally have me wanting to try it!

  7. Oooo I love them all! I think that was so clever how you faked bangs! I'm going to try that. I think that the vintage style looks amazeballs. They all do!

  13. I like the party pony. I almost always have a pony (I'm lazy). But you could def rock some bangs.

  14. I totally chose party pony. Because I didn't wash my hair. I totally recommend turbans for slept-too-late days!
