LOOK POST - PEPPER STREET

Hey Everyone, 



I hope that you are having a fab day so far as summer slowly approaches the mother City. My outfit selection includes this fairly simple 'black-peppered' colored dress, neon pink 80's sandal like shoes ,a turban wrap on my head and a body wrap bag. 




All this against a otherwise beautiful isolated street in Cape Town. Lately, I am finding myself choosing my location so wisely, what do you think about my most recent decisions regarding location?

How to Turban Wrap

As I promised in my previous post : I will show you ladies how to wrap a beautiful turban- especially now that the holy month of Ramadaan is upon us- without it falling off from your head! Hopefully this post will assist you in tying up those loose ends? 


STEP 1-3:

* Tie your hair up in a neat pony tail or bun. 
* Use a flower clip to give your turban wrap a little more volume 
* Clip the flower clip on your pony tail or bun 



STEP 3-10 : 

* Use a plain scarf that you would like to use for under your main scarf 
* Double-Fold your scarf in front if you find that your scarf is a little long 
* Twist your scarf at the back and tie around your flower clip
* Tuck in all the loose ends of the scarf if your scarf is a fringe scarf like mine. 



STEP 10-18 :

*Get hold of your second scarf that you would like to show (a little bigger and longer than your first one) 
* Repeat steps 3-10 



Useful tips to remember while doing the turban wrap : 
1. Rectangle scarves are the best to use when turban wrapping 
2. The texture of your scarf should preferably be cotton to avoid  your scarf from slipping off (Irritating) 
3. The BIGGER and LONGER the scarf, the better. 
4. Make sure your make-up is flawless as this look pushes all your hair back and gives plenty of emphasis on your facial features. 
5. Personalize your turban look by adding accessories to your scarf like pretty pins. 


Hope you find these tips useful 

Love
