I don't know what it is but I have been longing for a turban. It just reminds of spring and like everyone else, I am ready for the warmer weather and the lazy days of summer. Unfortunately, there aren't many stores that sell turbans. Luckily, I was on F21's website and they actually had a turban (photo above). I really like the orange-y, reddish color....but that's the only color they have. Hey, maybe I'll do a DIY turban (floral, pastel colors, shiny fabric...)
What do you guys think?

Oh I wrote an article a while back on Paul Poiret who introduced the turban to the western world (along with a lot of other eastern inspired items)in the late 1800's early 1900's.
I want one too but I am not sure how I'm going to wear one - I want one for winter ...
He paired them with some very exotic (for the times) looks.
