Turkish fashion varies. <br />You have conservative Islamic ladies who wear hijabs, or head scarves, and they can go anywhere from very plain and sombre to bright and colourful. You also have the ladies in miniskirts and the latest fashion trends. Generally speaking, the thing I notice most about Turkish women is their hair— oh goodness how my limp, stringy hair longs to have the body and shine of a Turkish woman's locks!<br /><br />Winter is not the best time to see Turkish street fashion in full force, but I can get some photos together for a fashion post. I think it would be rather interesting, as people who have never been to Istanbul generally have no idea what to expect here. Mind you, Istanbul is not representative of the entire nation, much like New York City or LA are nothing like a tiny town in West Virginia— but like NYC, you do get a wonderful mix of people here.<br /><br />Turkish male fashion is pretty interesting too, and the men can get quite manicured— one of my Turkish friends even confided that many men here shave their armpits!szazahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07456170555733148455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5247858193952376831.post-30574397871833711092012-01-12T00:30:26.504+00:002012-01-12T00:30:26.504+00:00Thanks for the description of the magnificent blue...Thanks for the description of the magnificent blue.

It is a Turkish design made in Nepal, and a wonderful travel companion! <br /><br />Happy New Year, Lila! Thank you :)<br /><br />And a very happy New Year to you too, Petra!
