Recently I have been putting more effort into my home wardrobe styling.
Working from home it is easy to disregard wardrobe style in a forever attempt to get more done.
But I have realized when I approach my creative projects and life with that mindset...
I not only get less done...
the enjoyment process is lessened as well.
So I have been working on some easy home style shortcuts...
where I still feel stylishly put together...
but my time is still efficiently used.
As much as I love fashion and style...
I am not one to invest much time ....
or at least I want to invest the very least amount of time possible ....
for the biggest results...
so...
My hair is down about once a month...after I get my greys covered and my stylist blows it out.
Other than that it is usually styled up...
or even more often just pulled up on the top of my head...
not really a very stylish solve to be sure...
it is haphazard at best.
So...
I have added knit turbans to my home style bascis....
I have found them to be a perfect at home solve.
(Having not been able to find any that I loved...
I made mine out of coton jersey).
With the ease of a stretch headband....
it slips on...
I am still able to pile my hair on top... or tuck it into the generous back
Either way the outcome is stylish and oh so quick...
making turbans the
perfect at home style solve.
When I go out all I have to do is
exchange the turban for a hat and sunglasses...
and I am out the door
in a flash
with down to earth glamour.
as always dear friends
I wish you love and joy
as you style your life
I would love to hear any quick at home style tricks
you want to share!
thanks so for stopping by!
Tamera. You look beautiful. I must admit that I look like a hippie most of the time. My one way to look a little bit put together when I go out is to add a scarf or a shawl. Still bohemian but not so sloppy.
ReplyDeleteConnie great idea for a finishing touch! I hope to see more of your bohemian style on your blog.... I loved your overalls! they reminded me to pull out my white summer version from Anthropologie. Thanks for visiting and sharing your style tip!
DeleteHair up, down, in a turban, or hat...you look chic in anything Tamera! I always feel better when I attempt to fix up even if hanging out at home or running errands. It really does make a difference in your mindset. Have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteThank you Pam for your very kind words! I do so agree, a little investment of time in fixing oneself up...makes such a difference!
DeleteLoved seeing what people were wearing at the stylish wedding you attended!
You are always chic and lovely Tamera. When I work from home, it's often hair up, makeup off and knit shorts on. Your turbans are a grand idea. Thanks for linking up! xoxo
ReplyDeleteRight back at you Patti! Thank you for forever championing ... still being visible!
DeleteGreat pics and very elegant. I have my hair razor cut. All I do is wash it, apply some styling products and let it air dry. It falls into place without any fuss. That is my shortcut.
ReplyDeleteWow Marla that sounds fabulous and so chic! What a great tip, thank you for sharing!
DeleteYou are easily the most stylish blogger on the planet, Tamera. I don't have a solitary tip to pass on except to say be happy, it's the best way to have people think you look good! (Not that you need to be told this since you are great at smiling!)
ReplyDeleteThank you my dear for your very kind words I absolutely agree about being happy .... no accessory can compete with a happy hearted smile!
DeleteI do believe your very avant gaurde haircut adds supreme style to all you wear!
Amazing amazing jewellery, I'm in awe! You look delightful in each and every portrait dear Tamera.
ReplyDeleteThank you dear Emalina. you are so kind.
Deletethe pictures of you in your granny's wedding dress are nothing less than enchanting.
Some women just 'got it!' and you've definitely 'got it' my dear Tamera. You are style and beauty and creativity all rolled into one. Your beauty comes from within and shines in these gorgeous images. Your jewelry and turbans-more touches of fabulous.
ReplyDeleteLovely post and happy week!
xx, Heather @Stylemindchic
PS-my hair almost always ends up in a high pony tail at the end of the day too.
Heather thank you for such very kind words my dear!
DeleteI so enjoyed your Wonderful guest room tips you!
I just love all your turbans and hats!
ReplyDeleteThank you my dear! I love how you champion hats are your blog!
DeleteTamera, you always look so chic and stylish whether in a hat or turban, whether the hair is up or down. I don't have any great tips for you; I think you've got it covered! When I'm at home, the hair is usually up and the makeup is off. I'm wondering when I'll be brave enough to venture out with that look. Maybe never??
ReplyDeleteHeather from Friendship, Life and Style
Thank you dear Heather for the kind words! My dear you are a true beauty who can easily forego the makeup and hair when heading out!
DeleteAlways elegant and attractive, at home or abroad.
ReplyDeleteThank you ever so much!!
DeletePerfection as always, beautiful Tamera. I keep my hair short, it seems to be a bit more sassy (like me) and is perfect for these hot humid Florida days. I don a hat to keep from getting more "wisdom lines" and fight the bed head if I need to fly out early in the morning. Short hair works for me.However, I would often love to have some hair to pull up and style differently. Ahh, the grass is always greener.Have a fab week.... looking forward to hearing how to purchase those wonderful beaded creations of yours! xo B
ReplyDeleteMy dear your hair choice sounds perfect for your sassy self... that plus your red lipstick and converse... a style complete! I have always longed to be one who could carry off a short cut... and have instant style!
DeleteYour enthusiasm about my creations has been balm for my soul... thank you! I have listed my first one. The link to my shop is at the top of my blog.
Stunning stunning stunning. That is all.
ReplyDeleteThank you Bella dear! Your film noir cover shots are so creatively inspiring!!
DeleteTamera, you could look beautiful bald, but I love the turban wrap and your hats are always an inspiration. I'mi in the dreaded stage of growing out my bangs and hair a bit so headbands and hats and fun clips have been my lifesavor ( maybe best to say style savor)
ReplyDeleteOh Trina, I love "style savor"... that is a great term... I may be using that one in the future! Wishing you a wonderful week!
DeleteTamera, you look FANTASTIC in the turban! You remind me of my Aunt Carol. She was so elegant in her turban. xoxoxox
ReplyDeleteMy dear I have been trying to leave comments on your blog, but to no avail! I think of you often and know you must be so happy to have your girl back! X0X
DeleteI read and always enjoy your beautiful and krative blog and your honest words. You are always an inspiration :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so very much Anne-Marie that means a lot to me. Your post about your father was so precious!
DeleteGorgeous creature! I just look dowdy in a turban ... I think it takes a very delicate featured face and a youthful demeanor to wear one. Both of which you have, and you look adorable hair up, down, half-up, hatted, any-which-way!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week, no matter what you wear.
Thank you Jan for your kind, kind comments! Your cork insole solve was brilliant!
DeleteI haven't had much luck with turbans but you inspire me to try again! Waaay back in the day I wore a lot of headwraps but now it's mostly hats. However, I've just ordered some human hair bangs, which will enable me to pull my hair back and up but still have some softness around my face. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they work the way I hope. They'll be a summer lifesaver if they do.
ReplyDeleteYou look wonderfully chic in your turban. :-)
Jean the bangs sound like a wonderful idea... I look forward to hearing more about them! With your beauty Jean, I have no doubt turbans .... or anything would look fabulous on you my dear!
DeleteLOVE the turquoise and bling bracelet...where do we find your shop?!?!? And AMEN to felling better and more productive when dressed!! I agree 110%
