Twisted twisties

By on August 25, 2011

This hairstyle takes a lot of twisting.  I try to separate into equal sections and then pin similarly.  There were 5 sections here.  One in the middle front, two at the upper sides and then 2 lower remaining pieces.  At the end of this day I took the hair down and went dancing.  It’s nice […]

Buying ahead

By on August 12, 2011

This outfit is a bit Fallish, but it was coolish out.  That’s my excuse.  I don’t really want the cold weather of Fall, but I do want to dress in layers and wear my boots. I got these boots a few weeks ago, and they were on sale.  Yay!  Sales!  This is actually the second […]

Note: New haircut!!  Yes…I know most people would not notice.  I got my signature straight-across-the-bottom-clean-up-the-ends cut.  Truly exciting.  Getting someone to straighten out my hair for me is the real treat of getting my hair cut.

Barely worn

By on August 4, 2011

This shirt is one that I have worn maybe once before.  It’s a cute little knit top, but it is one of those tops that will show every bulge in your mid-section.  I finally wore it today, as I am feeling more confident about my mid-section. For the past 10 weeks I have been working […]
