Fringe

Generally I'm pretty pleased living life bangs-less but every now & then Brigitte Bardot creeps into my subconscious & I find myself craving serious fringe. Something devil-may-care & moody to hind behind starts to feel just right once winter rolls around. Do you guys have bangs? Want 'em? Hate 'em? Damn you Bardot, you temptress!

Who knew?: Hair Rings

What a cool idea, right? Pretty little rings - in gold & silver -  to wind in your hair however you like. Clip them in to tousled waves, fishtail braids, a messy bun, go nuts! Seems like such a delicate, romantic way to dress up an otherwise ordinary doo. That spine-y earring is another story all together...

Braid-y Bunch

When it's this hot out (103° yuck!) it's pretty tough to your hair resembling anything presentable. I've worn mine up in a top-knot almost daily since we started hitting the hundreds hard. It's been 70+ days of over 100° heat! I guess that's par for the course in Texas. Lately I've been playing around with braids. I'd love to try some of these above (French braid bun!)

Tip Top

I love a loose top knot. Something so chic devil-may-care about it.
