DIY Turban Headband

Ciao fellow fashionistas! It's Emily from Tinfoils Tiaras here to share a cheap and cheerful tip on how to turn your favourite scarf into this season's hottest trend- the turban headband



Step 1: Choose your scarf.  I buy most my scarves at second hand shops for under $5, hence my expansive and colourful collection.  




Step 2: Lay out your scarves and comb your hair before taking photos




Step 3: Fold the scarves into thick rectangles.  For square shaped scarves (like the leopard print), fold the corners into the centre.  



Step 4: Place the middle of the folded scarf behind your head and hold the ends.



Step 5: Cross the ends of the scarf high on your forehead.



Step 6: Cross the ends of the scarf again, bringing the ends back from where they started off and don't grimace and look like you're having fun!



Step 7: Tuck the ends into the back of the scarf or if they are long enough, tie or fasten with a clip.



Step 8: Pick an outfit that contemplates your new turban headband and voila! You're ready to hit the town with your stylish new accessory!

This is so cute. I love how a scarf is a great way to add a pop of color, or an awesome print.
