urban turband !

Accessories, accessories accessories!! I can't stress how much they can take your outfit to the next level of fashion awesomeness. This little bit of twisted fabric has my heart rate speeding up. Although I do love my hats, sometimes I like to shake things up a bit and throw on something completely unexpected, like a turband ! I personally love to style this hair accessory with some oversize shades and leather to keep my rock n roll aesthetic alive. It can also be glammed up for a night out with a bold lip color and cat eyeliner, or if your getting into the holiday spirit I recommend a sequin or metallic twisted number. They also double as ear warmers, if you live in a chilly winter city like NY ! So twist it, tie it, knot it and see below for my chic turband picks.

head games..

I have to admit, I am kind of depressed knowing that it will be well over a year until Halloween, and I am constantly searching for new ways to incorporate that costume feel into my everyday outfits. Thus I give you, the Headpiece or Head crown. I'm currently craving these delicate chains to adorn my head, when I'm not wearing hats of course. Cleopatra got it right when way, way back in the day she rocked those gold beaded head pieces like she was Queen of the world, let alone Egypt ! With the holidays swiftly approaching and my 31st (21st) birthday a mere month away, I find this head candy to be the perfect accessory to dress up or add that unique edge to any outfit. A headpiece adds just the right amount of sparkle to get the holidays under way.
