What do Rihanna and Kristen Bell Have in Common?

So what do you think pop singer Rihanna and actress Kristen Bell have in common? Aren’t you curious?  The two are obviously as different as night and day, but here’s the thing, both ladies were spotted sporting head scarves on the exact  same day early this month (January 5)!

Ri-Ri was spotted arriving at a tattoo parlor in West Hollywood with a blue bandana bow on her head while Kristen was seen leaving the David Letterman studio in New York with a tube scarf wrapped around her head like a turban:

Don’t these two look cute with their head scarves?

This just goes to show how far a scarf can go to up a certain look. If you want to copy Ri-Ri’s style here, simply grab one of these extra affordable bandanas from Amazon:

To grab Kristen’s half turban look, you will need a tube scarf (much like an infinity scarf, only smaller). Simply loop it twice around your head to achieve the half turban style:

If you can’t find a tube scarf, then go for an infinity scarf that is made of thinner material like this piece from Cheap Monday. Simply loop it around your head several times to achieve the look:

Looks like Rihanna got tired of her red hair because last week, she went back to fashioning her classic black locks, except of course, they were much shorter like a bob.

Ri-Ri was spotted arriving in London  a few days ago with her new do in a cozy looking outfit that consisted of a sweater dress, tights, and boots topped with a camo hat and a really thick knitted scarf that had leather pockets on it.

Even without the help of the “WWW”, we can already tell you what and who she’s wearing because we featured the very same item here at ScarvesWraps two months ago. Rihanna’s scarf is the Heather Wool Scarf with Leather Pockets from Alexander Wang. It used to retail for US$375 at Shopbop but they no longer have it in stock. The only other store where you can find it is Barneys.

If you like it, I suggest you visit Barneys and grab the scarf as fast as you possible can. Celebrity spotted items such as this one sell out immediately. If you like the pocket concept but don’t mind not having the leather, then you can also try these:
