Turban Time May 9
Colour & Trends, Hats
Could this be the summer of the turban? Over the past few years, turbans have popped up in high profile places like Prada’s 2007 runway and on Sarah Jessica Parker in 2010’s Sex and the City 2. Now this micro trend is coming to the forefront of style. With a strong influence on global cultures and fashion reminiscent of decades past, it is easy to see how the turban trend is gaining momentum this season. It can be a skilfully wrapped large scarf, a cap type headpiece, or a less obtrusive headband style. Coral and blue hues have been favourite colours on street and runway, so don’t be surprised to see the more of these adventurous colours in boldly patterned headpieces. READ MORE +

Bowlerama March 10
Colour & Trends, Hats
Classic fedoras and trilbies continue to be hot sellers here in the States year after year, but those of us in the industry are more than a little bored with them. So we were thrilled to see a new felted hat silhouette picking up steam lately: the bowler. Since its creation in 1849, various bowler styles have made up signature looks for the likes of Butch Cassidy, Charlie Chaplin, Rene Magritte’s The Son of Man and ‘80s pop princess Debbie Gibson. Now the small-brimmed, round-crown topper finds new life on the heads of fashionistas around the globe—mostly in the flatter brimmed ‘80s version. Time will tell if bowlers can cure the world of fedora fever. For now, they’re offering an instant dose of fresh, forward, quirky style. READ MORE +

Tight Knits November 4
Gloves, Hats, Scarves, Street Fashion
Cold weather is officially here, which means it’s time to bring sweaters and gloves out of storage. But if you are feeling less than enthused about your old knits, there are plenty of fun options to help jazz up winter ensembles. There are tons of stylish hats available–especially eye-catching are ones that are slouchy, adorned with cute pompoms, or turban-style. For iPhone addicts who need to keep their digits free, fingerless gloves are the answer. Girls with a funky fashion sense will love scarves that feature plenty of tassels and fringe, but if scarves aren’t your thing, look for knit cowls–a chic alternative. You can even find shaggy knit handbags and shoes with knit details–for a look that is 100 percent winter. READ MORE +
