Finally I have the promised headscarf tutorial for you all! It's super-de-duper easy, so you have no excuses not to try it! All you need are a couple of bobby pins ( possibly a hair tie if you have long hair) and a square scarf! Also, if any of you are interested for a tutorial on the makeup- let me know and I will work on that ;)
1. Find yourself a square scarf ( at least 23"x23"). It can be anything from cotton, to silk to nylon. I would recommend nylon over any other because it clings the best. 2. Fold the scarf in a triangle shape 3. Place the tip of the triangle over your head and bring the other two corners around to the front. 4. Tie the two corners on top of the first corner so that it sticks out. You'll look a little silly for a minute here ;)
5. Tuck in the "rabbit ears" on each side. 6. Grab the first corner of the scarf and pull it up and over, tucking it into the knot from corner #1 & #2
7. If you find you have little corners sticking up you can roll them in- this is where the nylon scarves come in handy- they will hold that down for you.

I found this interesting. I have never worn a headscarf in this way and will now give it a go!

Looks lovely - my little tip is (if nylon) lightly spray with hairspray to help it cling to your hair even more :)
Too darling! I'm a sucker for a good headscarf - hides those bad hair days. Well done!

I love head scarves too! Your blouse is soooo cute! Would you mind sharing where you got it? I too love your longer hair! Very becoming! Merry from ,eachlittlebird.blogspot.com
Awww, how sweet of you to use my citrus colored dress as part of your back drop on this clear and understandable scarf tutorial! I found another sheet for two more "Alexandra dresses" and I was tickled pink! I'm passing this great tip on to my two daughters and other cute, young friends who can pull off this fun look! thanks for sharing.
Great to know!
I couldn't resist- it's one of my all time favorite dresses! And that's so great that you are able to find that sheet again- what a blessing!
Thank you Merry! I got it from this Etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/shop/QuietUnrest
So cute! I've tried this before to no avail, and I think it may be that I just need a bigger scarf. You make this look so stinkin' cute that I'm definitely hunting down a bigger scarf and trying again!

This is adorable! I love the red on you! I am going to try to replicate this for Valentine's Day, but no promises:)
Love the post and blog!
I've been trying to figure out how to make this work with my locs...they are too long and thick! So cute though :)

I'll have to post a tutorial for it soon- but there is a way to do it for long hair that works super well, and looks adorable! If I do, I will let you know!
I really want to try this head scarf tutorial, but have no scarves. Where did you get your nylon scarf from?
@bonnie I get all of my nylon scarves from Etsy- this shop is a great place to find bunches of vintage nylon scarves for super cheap! https://www.etsy.com/shop/TotallyScarves?ref=shop_sugg
