Summer or winter, the turban is a hat trend that is always in style. It works with short or long hair, and is the most comfortable headwear around. It makes a statement with any outfit, and unlike larger hats, you’re not expected to remove it inside so no fear of hat hair.

Turbans are a great look whether you’re at the beach or hanging with friends at a Sunday afternoon barbeque. Here are some ways to rock it:

Here’s one way to wear a turban:

Start with a large, square scarf. I like my vintage silk scarves because they’re soft and not bulky.


Fold one corner to the other to form a triangle.



Fold the corner down to about the middle, and then fold over again (but not all the way to the edge, because you want it to be a little thicker).


Put the scarf around your head with the ends in the front, making sure the wrong side of the scarf (the part where you can see the folds) is against your head.



Tie it in a loose knot at the front. I like to keep the whole scarf a little on the loose side (it will stay in place).



Tuck the ends behind/underneath the scarf.


Done!
