Trend Alert: Rock the Turban

Everytime I look around I see people wearing turbans in beautiuful patterns and colors and in various shapes and styles. Turbans originated in places like the Middle East and Africa as customary headware and now they are being worn as chic fashion head gear. Celebs like Kourtnay Kardashian, Solange Knowles, and June Ambrose are just a few to be seen working the turban into everyday street style, vacay wear, and even special events.
Kourtney Kardashian and boyfriend Scott Disick are seen leaving their hotel in Miami followed by their reality TV crew. Kourtney was wearing a cobalt blue turban in which she tweeted a photo from the car stating "Turban Style. Just chic enough to embarrass @scottdisick".
Kourtney Kardashian
Kourtney Kardashian keeps it simple by wraping a bright blue turban, that matches her outfit perfectly, around her head. A turban in a solid color that does a full wrap around the head is probably the most simple version of a turban that still makes a statement. Not only does her turban work as a fashion statement, but since she's out near the Miami waters it helps to protect her hair from frizz and an overall bad hair day. 
Solange Knowles
Solange adds a little more length to her turban so that it wraps up with her hair as well as add a little twist for flair. The black and white pattern of her turban adds to her outfit by giving more of a visual and pop to the look. Don't forget if your wearing a turban you can do more with your beauty look since all your hair is pulled back like Solange's soft smokey eyes. 
June Ambrose
Now if your a daring fashionista like June Ambrose you can go the extra mile with your turban look. June kept it basic black, but creates a "turban bun" which takes the place of big earrings and a statement necklace. Youtube has hundreds of turban tying tutorials if you want to style yours like June's or any other style.

Will you be rocking the turban this fall?

Fashion 101: The Peplum

Beyonce
Kourtney Kardashian

Emma Stone
Peplum style skirts and dresses are so unique and help form and define curves. I love the peplum style, it reminds me of a bit of a tutu mixed with lots of chic! A peplum is basically just a sort of frill added in the waist section of a skirt of dress. I recommend that for anyone wanting to show off their waist or create a smaller waist to try out a peplum style. Beyonce's peplum begins exactly at the waist and is continued by a pencil bottom.Beyonce's peplum helps to show off her flat abs as well as her small waist because the rest of the dress is tight. Kourtney Kardashian wears her peplum in the style of a mini dress accented by a cute zipper. Just like Beyonce's peplum, Kourtney's begins right at the waist giving her a nice curve and small waist. The color of the dress is lovely and the snake skin clutch is perfect! Emma Stone's peplum is a bit weird since the fabric is bubbled up and sticking outward from her body. However, the color scheme is great! Be sure when purchasing a peplum style that the fabric is not to thick and that it is goin around your body equally. A peplum should be flattering!

Are you trying out the peplum style?
