Inspiration: Josephine Baker

It's still cold outside and looking through the web for ideas to protect my hair I came across these photos of the iconic Josephine Baker wearing these beautiful scarves on the rear of her head. Even though one looks like it might be a hat, I still like the idea of wearing one in this manner. The best scarves to use are silk scarves because they won't dry out your hair. 

How to wear them: A beautifully printed one works best combined with a neutral colored ensemble. Comb hair back into a bun or braid, wrap and attach the scarf  to your head and be sure to secure with bobby pins. voilà! A simple, yet elegant look.
