Head Scarves



        Head Scarves, a trend I have constantly been referring to as the "Forties Head Bands". Recently that idea that they were indeed derived from the Roaring Forties, was challenged by me describing it to someone as such, so from now on in order to remain politically correct, I will simply refer to them as head scarves. So, Head scarves, a trend that has exploded on to the fashion scene, yet some how absent in my town is particularly interesting. The classic yet simple head scarf manages to embody so many elements. Its pretty, eye catching, subtle, cute, and sophisticated all wrapped up upon your head. It can come in different patterns and colors; silks verses satins, as opposed to mattes, it has the ability to completely alter the direction or motif of your outfit. In the picture above, with its bright colors and bold pattern it creates the illusion of confidence and intrigue yet still managing to look effortless. The blue scarf in the picture below gives her a doll like accent, while the bandannas add some edge. It serves the same purpose as a headband from the drugstore, yet gives you a hint of effortless effort (if that makes sense to anyone besides me). Just like it pulls up your hair, it can also withstand the weight of your outfit, pulling all the colors together, if you haven't gotten the picture yet, here are some actual pictures.
