Got Ten Minutes for a New Updo??

 T.G.I.F. my darlings! How's your day going so far? I've been slacking a little with the blogging this week so I wanted to make it up to you!  You're in for a REAL treat with this amazing video I found on YouTube.

If you're anything like me, then you can relate when it comes to managing your hair. It's a love/hate relationship. I love the look of long hair, but it's such a pain to style (especially with this weather)! I am NOTORIOUS for washing my hair and putting it up so I sought out to find some easy and pretty hairstyles and updos that I can do with my hair wet! Yay!!!

I found this ONE video that shows you 

how to fix your wet hair FIVE different ways in TEN minutes or less! 

I have tried 3 of the styles and it really works!  This is such a HUGE lifesaver for me and the BEST part is most of these tutorials incorporate braids into them and you know how HOT that trend is right now.

Enjoy my lovelies and PLEASE let me know if you try any of these looks. 

This girl is seriously amazing.

Guest Post at {Eat, Love, & Style} and A Braided Hair Tutorial

My LOVELIES! Happy Friday!!!  Today's post is short and sweet.  I am guesting blogging over at Jackie's LOVELY blog Eat, Love & Style while she's on vacation.  What a lovely lady!  Head over there for the 'Oh, So Lovely' segment.

Since I have the day off, I've been browsing the web for the some great weekend updos and absolutely LOVE this one I found on Cupcakes and Cashmere. Last week, I was craving the top knot bun, but this weekend will be all about the braid.  Isn't this wonderful?  It looks a lot harder than it appears, but that's the beauty of it!  Two braids, a little loop, a few pins here and there, and voila!  A SUPER cute look.  I need to practice this hair tutorial and perfect my look for our 4th of July festivities! Have a FABULOUS day dolls!!!

Fashion Fridays: Top Knot Hair Tutorial

Hi dolls! TGIF!!!  So the weekend is here and I know you've already picked out your cutest outfits for Girls Night Out or an evening date with that special someone, but what about your hair?  On one hand, the weekend is the ONLY time I get to play dress up, but then again, it's also when I'm at my laziest.

SO, with that being said, you can probably see me sporting my "bun bun" look. Luckily, I have a WONDERFUL tutorial for the top knot bun I found on Vogue that is so POPULAR right now.  Wear this to work, out on the town, or to the park for a picnic.  Anything low maintenance gets EXTRA kudos in my book! Enjoy lovelies!

THE FINAL LOOK

1. Apply mousse and blowdry.

2. Tie in a high ponytail.

3. Tease, tease, and tease some more.

4. Divide in 2 sections.

5. Tie in a knot.

6. The bulk of the bun goes in the front and the loose ends goes in the back. Secure with bobby pins and hairspray.

Wedding Wednesdays: BHDLN Hair Adornments

Morning Afternoon dolls! I am happy to say that it is Hump Day and Houston is FINALLY getting some rain!  We have been experiencing a severe drought so this is MUCH needed. Actually, I wrote this post at 8am this morning in the hopes of posting it early, but after a few hours of struggling to upload photos, I have given up.  Blogger has been acting up a lot lately and it's starting to make me worry.  YAY! I was able to post a few more images.  Also, it has been raining for 4.5 hrs straight and I am over it now. Got totally drenched coming to work. NICE. I guess it could be worse...

How's YOUR day going?  This week has gone by SUPER fast for me (thank goodness!) and I can't tell you how happy I was to get yesterday off. Got a lot of things accomplished and it was nice to relax with the doggies.

Last week's vintage wedding got me dreaming about BHLDN's beautiful hair accessories so I had to share a couple of my favorite pieces with you. It's all in the details and wouldn't you LOVE to have one of these beauties to highlight your tresses on your wedding day?
