I have a feeling that a tutorial is going to be needed on this one! Hint: all it takes is one very large, light silk scarf, and a hair elastic!

Daily Scarf Creation!
This wrap didn’t budge from dawn until late at night… even though the sash is slippery silk!
To do this, I did a basic Regal Wrap -Turban with a lilac pashmina scarf, and added a silk sash in for contrast. Kept my head warm in today’s crazy rain/wind/snow!

That’s a Wrap!
After a lovely day, my hubby and I going out tonight to say goodbye to a close friend who is leaving town. Here is what I’m wearing on my head!
This is actually just one gauzy long scarf (just one?! Yes, I’m going casual) – wrapped in the way that I showed in my recent pashmina video. Finished it off with some silver hoop earrings and I’m ready to go! Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend!

Bring On the Colour!
Brrrrr! It’s cold outside where I’m living, so, armed with inspiration from today’s “Lady Wrap Star”, Elizabeth (see post here), I decided to don a bright square scarf, add another bright long scarf and finish it off with twists! My awesome husband also took these photos, which resulted in much nicer shots than the ones I take of myself 🙂
And here is an artsy shot of half my smiling face:
I hope that everyone had a lovely weekend and is looking forward to a productive week filled with beautiful moments, surprises, achievements, special connections and of course, gorgeous head wraps!

Tell us a bit about yourself! What do you like to do?
When I am not busy with my Husband and son I really enjoy spending time with my friends and helping others.
How long have you been covering?
I started covering with hats last spring but quickly switched to scarves exclusively.
Do you remember the first time you wore a head covering? What did it look like? How did it feel? What did others say?
When I first started wrapping I was surprised by the reaction of others. My husband said I looked glamorous like a movie star. Strangers in public suddenly treated me with an extra dose of respect that I didn’t get before. My parents are a bit baffled but have stopped asking and looking at me like I have seven heads.
When I cover my head I am reminded of something deeply personal to me. So that is a constant good feeling. I also find that I have a lot less mean self talk. I was really surprised to realize how much I used to say I hated my hair or hated that it would not do what I wanted. Now that my hair is a non issue I don’t put myself down so much.
I also put more care into how I look over all now. You just cant take the time to pick out a pretty scarf (or 2 or 3) and not take the time to match a pretty top and put on some lipstick!
What are you wearing on your head today?
A navy blue pashmina and an oat colored stretchy headband.
What is your favourite scarf and/or accessory?
My favorite is a yellow and green flowered tichel with the hot pink border – it is in the picture of me with my son.
What is your favourite colour?
Pink
What are you grateful for?
My family first, and the women friends, both here in my everyday life and in my virtual life. I have friends that I have never met in person but who I have loved and cared for for over a decade!
What is favorite scarf secret?
My bath scrubby volumizer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkbRTaABO08 [left of drawer, below] and the velvet headband!
