3 Fast, Full Head-Coverage Ideas for Busy Mornings

The moment after slipping off my satin eye mask on a soon-to-be-busy morning, the fastest headwear choices become my favorites.

My hand gravitates to them every time, even over a splashier multi-scarf ensemble carefully picked out the night before.

The routine starts with some hair taming (stocking cap, jersey headband, or hat liner), and ends with a light swipe of mascara and balm stain.

Then I'm ready to scramble out the door and make my way in the world. Here's how you can quickly make your a full head covering look chic when you're in a rush.

1. Berets

For a look that's clean and classy, choose a beret. Subtle embellishments like fabric flowers and pearls add texture and interest. Create a fuller silhouette by wearing a lightweight square cotton scarf underneath.

For extra coverage and slip prevention, wear a wide headband peeking out under the front edge of the beret.

2. Turban Hats

I love turban-style hats that emulate the folds of a hand-tied headscarf. To make the silhouette really chic, wear your hair in a high bun, and put on a cotton layering cap underneath.

A head shaper creates the same effect, and no hair is needed. Wear the turban hat tilted off-center, and add a sparkly brooch behind the front edge.

2. A Pre-Tied Head Scarf

The last suggestion is to dive into your stash of pre-tied scarves, and pull out one that matches your outfit. This option involves little styling, and is so quick and easy.
