yay!! turbans are fashionable!
i've been a massive fan of the headwrap for ages (friends of mine will know the nigerian fabric headscarf has been an ella-staple for a while now...excellent festival hair solution), and now that the turban is back in style i thought i'd share how easy they are to make with you!
i've made TWO VARIETIES - a simpler, head-wrap style turban, and a more complex gathered turban (the kind which are very popular in-store at the moment) - but both look equally great!
first, my preferred version - the simple head-wrap turban!
(perfect for when you're in a rush or on the move, all it requires is one piece of fabric and an optional pin!)

(don't be put off by the title - it's really easy to make and once done never requires tieing again!)

this is me in my nigerian head-wrap turban!
(looking a bit pretentious probably, i know - it's just such a great thing to wear when you're feeling a bit lazy and just want to throw on some sunnies and leggings and get some greasy food...ahh, perfect!)
