Last week I went to a party and decided that I might as well try throwing my hair up.
Confession: I hate doing my own hair. I purposely have long hair so I can pull it into a ponytail everyday if I need to. I love doing Siri and Felicity’s hair (when they let me which isn’t very often).
This took five minutes and while it’s maybe not the most sleek updo, it worked for me. Just start halfway down your hair with a loose french braid. As you get a few braids down just start twisting it and tucking it underneath (super scientific, I know). I used 5 or 6 large bobby pins and I was done.
I hope everyone enjoyed ths Bloghop this last weekend! It was fun to see all the other designer’s goodies and all the fun stuff they made! I was adoring all the fun hybrid projects (I’m a sucker for those) by the CT team!
Now, I’m looking forward to 4th of July. I think we will be heading to Huntsville, UT again for our smalltown firework show. We took up the tradition after moving to Utah and missing our Stillwater, MN Fourth of July.
Do you have any great plans for this weekend or the 4th?
Hugs! Carina
Oh, I just had to say that I miss the Fourth of July celebration in Stillwater too! My grandparents owned a home on the bluff overlooking the St. Croix river and downtown so we always had a perfect view of the fireworks. Those were some very special days!
BTW, your hair is gorgeous and love your blog. Meghan
Your hair looks AWESOME like that! I’m definitely going to try it.
P.S. You should consider coming to Oakley on Monday. There’s a parade which someone fabulous will be in (who promises to throw you lots o’ candy!), kids’ activities, and fireworks that night. And you might run into Katherine Heigl or Tom Hanks. Let me know if you want more details, like a schedule. 🙂
Hi Carina!
Your hair looks fabulous! So flattering! When is your baby due? Can’t wait to hear!
