all tied up


Debuting my new T by Alexander Wang tank top, and I thought I'd step out of my comfort zone a bit and tie a scarf around my head.  I actually loved it, but does anyone have a trick to keep it from sliding back periodically throughout the day?  Or is my hair just slipperier than everyone else's?

a surprise photo after the jump...

Yup, I secretly had a bunch of chihuahuas on my head.  Brought me all kinds of hidden joy all day.  Felt like a girl with a secret.  And I think I looked like a girl with a secret.

    Oh, and the trick is carefully placed bobby pins. :)

    Ah, this is awesome! I am such a sucker for a scarf tied around the head too! I've got to admit though, I'm totally with you on the slipping off dilemma - have yet to find a solution! Love the dogs! Sooo cute!! xx

    I have the same problem! I always make sure that the first layer i wrap around my head is broader than the following layers. That tends to work. Or bobby pins around the base layer help, too (if the fabric is silk or slides easily). Putting the tie in front (top of head) works too and it's easier to adjust if needed.

    good luck!
