Suede Jacket - thrifted, backpack - romwe, shoes and hat from h&m

It already looks like winter and I surprisingly like it. Rainy day, lovely coats and cups of coffee. I cant wait for winter clothes. I bought myself a coat from H&M today. Therefore I've got my fingers crossed for cold days.

Friday's Film: Angel Halo

This is a fun hairstyle that is really quite simple but takes a couple times doing it to get used to the flow of it.  The original post on this is here: Angel Halo.

We've also used this concept for Halloween Hairdos: The Great Pumpkin

And for The Rose Bowl.

The more you practice this hairstyle the easier it is to get it looking perfect!

I'm starving and I just realized that the reason why my stomach has been making noises is because I had no lunch today. I forgot to eat. How can that possibly happen?.Therefore I feel really excited to cook dinner tonight. I just don't know what's for the menu. What did you eat today?

"Fan"cy

We were running a bit late for church this last week so we had to come up with a hairstyle that was fast!  We call this one "FAN"cy because it looks like a fan on top.  :)

Start by dividing the hair from one ear to the other and securing the top half into an elastic. 

 Now take a small section from that ponytail and bend it up in a horseshoe shape above the elastic.  Bobby pin it into place over the elastic. 

 Continue doing this with section of hair from the ponytail until all of your ponytail has been "horseshoed" and bobby pinned. 

 

You will end up with the ends from your ponytail hanging down over the remaining hair and a fan effect above the elastic. 

 Grab a hair clip to place over the bobby pins and hide them.  We've used some decorative hair pins here.  (Quite a few of them because my princess wanted them ALL in - you don't need this many to get the job done.)  :) 

 

This only took about 5 minutes to complete and we were ready to head out the door.  

Welcome to my wardrobe

On my visit to Kew Gardens I bought a Roots Sack, because when I first set my eyes on it. I thought I could turn it into a bag. So when I got home I cut a bit of the sack and made the straps. Once I applied my mother crocheted the edges.Hopefully I'll be getting a sewing machine, perhaps an overlock too. Then I could do so many more things and finally get the clothes I want.

Things are way too complicated

Puffy Pull-Throughs

Here's a 5 minute style that is simple and fun. 

 

I call these "Puffy Pull-Throughs" but my daughter refers to them as "Hamster Ears". Section out the hair from ear to ear and then divide it into two sides.  We've created an off-centered part on ours so our sides are not even but you can do it however you like. 

 Pull each side up into an elastic.  Now grab your Topsy Tail and create a Pull-Through.  At this point you can either use a rat-tailed comb or your fingers but I find that the comb makes it a bit easier. 

 Hold onto the elastic in the Pull-Through and simply grab bits of hair to pull toward the forehead - loosening them from the elastic.  You can make your puffs as large or as small as you like and you can pull out as much or as little hair as you like. 

 These were so easy and fun that I will be using them on hairstyles in the future!

  We just let the rest of the hair fall down in waves but you can finish off the back in any way.
