I guess they kept our ears warm. Kids didn't wear hats much then. Now I wonder why not. Didn't help much when it snowed.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/head-scarf-a-la-grace-kelly#post-2325427 Tue, 06 Jun 2023 02:38:46 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2325427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Sounds like quite a few of us remember this look on our moms and relatives! <br /></div><div>Saira, I like the hijab look, too--so elegant.

She always called them her babushka. She was German so not sure why she used a Russian name.&nbsp;</p> <p>Oh, just checked online dictionary and apparently it is also a word for headscarf tied under the chin. So there we go!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/head-scarf-a-la-grace-kelly#post-2325356 Mon, 05 Jun 2023 13:20:46 +0000 Anonymous 2325356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&nbsp;Y mother also wore scarves like this and I wore them to school. &nbsp;Thank you for the inspiration. &nbsp;OST of my scarves are long and narrow rectangles. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/head-scarf-a-la-grace-kelly#post-2325350 Mon, 05 Jun 2023 12:58:40 +0000 Helena 2325350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Memories - my Grandma used to wear a scarf like this ...

Sometimes in the summer when it was hot day she would tie it in the back, but would not take it off even then. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/head-scarf-a-la-grace-kelly#post-2325125 Sat, 03 Jun 2023 05:52:35 +0000 slim cat 2325125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wore it in fall seasons ( 1985-1986 I think ) when we were helping in fields collecting potatoes, carrots and such. So - not for me &nbsp;;-) &nbsp;.<br />Yes - my grandmothers on both sides used to wear scarfs like that <br />( long time ago back in Soviet Union &nbsp;). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/head-scarf-a-la-grace-kelly#post-2325124 Sat, 03 Jun 2023 02:51:07 +0000 JP 2325124@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Irina, you made me laugh I'm sure you are a very smart Babushka!<br />I like the #1 but not the other ways worn, maybe because I associate it with where I grew up in my teens and forced to wear a head cover.&nbsp; And, it was hard to make it look nice with big curly hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/head-scarf-a-la-grace-kelly#post-2325119 Sat, 03 Jun 2023 01:41:43 +0000 Irina 2325119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My grandma wore a headscarf almost daily in the same style like the Queen. I love headscarves and wish I had a bigger head to wear it. Probably would’ve been smarter with a bigger head, too. A bonus! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/head-scarf-a-la-grace-kelly#post-2325111 Sat, 03 Jun 2023 00:45:07 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2325111@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p> <div>Jules, yes, it is! I bet you look chic, too.</div><div>Irina, sweet! I suspected Russian but didn't know what it meant. <br /></div><div>Carla, yes she was. My mother wore scarves this way, too. <br /></div><div>Thanks, Angie! She was so elegant in this look.

It’s quite practical. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/head-scarf-a-la-grace-kelly#post-2325063 Fri, 02 Jun 2023 20:24:08 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2325063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today's post made me think of this style. Maybe it's not exactly a summer scarf idea. But if you are going out in your convertible with the top down, or out on your boat, you could keep your hair (mostly) in place this way. </p> <p>I guess it's called babushka style... and A$AP Rocky has worn it, too.</p>
