Usually they are in so-called "ethnic" fabrics, whether Guatemalan, Nepali, African, Javanese etc. Not really corporate or political-heavy work-worthy, but much prettier in a casual way than those ghastly Alice bands Hillary wore - fortunately she seems to have abandoned them of late, along with some of the garish colours she wore campaigning - I think she looks great now, overall (unlike poor Angela Merkel who is a good ten years younger; perhaps it is the responsibilities of high office, but Ms Merkel looks rather crumpled).lagatta à montréalhttp://www.lemab.canoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2872918251244874644.post-49908296733840949662010-06-23T10:25:39.668-04:002010-06-23T10:25:39.668-04:00I'm still wearing Scrunchies.

Yes, a few loose locks change the effect to much more relaxed.<br /><br />Frugal: To me, more a hat substitute or way to wear a scarf than a serious implement to hold hair up/back. I wonder- tight enough would not be comfortable, loose will slip. Not sure I could stand it all day. The models look pretty in these ethnic-influenced wraps.Duchessehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09986153653120526776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2872918251244874644.post-30463009283159905112010-06-23T09:41:55.278-04:002010-06-23T09:41:55.278-04:00I've been seeing a lot of post-50 women wearin...I've been seeing a lot of post-50 women wearing wrapped scarves--can't think of the term. Look at the Garnet Hill catalog to see what I mean. Anyway, what do you think of this look?<br /><br />These are the same women wearing capri leggings with tunics. And since I've started wearing capri leggings with tunics, I might try--if I can figure out how to do the scarves. But I wouldn't do it without checking with you first!<br /><br />P.S. I am so in love with Hillary.

It certainly helps avoid the look Ms. Clinton is sporting in that photo!Rubiatontanoreply@blogger.com
