I’m in love with the movie Brave and Disney’s Princess Merida, so I thought it was the perfect DIY costume to tackle next in my Disney character dress up series. My first in the series was Cinderella, and Cinderella was fun, but other than figuring out how to get the perfectly large and rolling bun, …
It’s true I’ve been dressing up as Disney characters since I was an infant due to my mom’s deep admiration of the “Mouse”, but before they were labeled “princesses” I wanted to be every one of Disney’s leading ladies, and of them all, Cinderella was my favorite. I guess I just have a soft spot …

I learned to embrace big hair in my teenage years, and decided after years of trying to tame it, that my hair looked better if I just worked with it instead of against it. And so I also learned to love big hair. Even when sleek hair styles are trending, I have big hair, and …
A few weeks ago my trusty 1″ Hot Tools curling iron finally called it quits. I think I bought it in or around 2003, so almost ten years of soft waving and amazing curls makes for a good buy, in my opinion. It remains my favorite, I must admit. But while searching for a replacement …
A few weeks ago I styled my hair in this high French twist {featured in this outfit post} and had requests for an instructional hair tutorial. So here it is 😉 It’s a fun look because it sort of mimics a faux-hawk or a short haircut if you slick the sides back. If you leave …
I know I’ve seen hair tutorials for the little half ponytail hair bow and for the Lady Gaga top-o-the-head style hair bow, but I had never seen one quite like this and I had to try it out. I thought the steps were easy enough to follow without a video so I tried something new …
I actually created and planned this hair tutorial last week then randomly watched the Elie Saab Spring Couture show and realized my creation was a very similar style to the hair worn in the show. And though it is gorgeous, it wasn’t my original inspiration but I felt a bit obligated to refer to it. …
This low side bun is one of the easiest and quickest hair styles to create and works perfectly for various occasions. It can go from a messy, bohemian look to a sleek and pretty updo simply depending on the way you secure it & style it. For this particular tutorial, the goal is a quick …
I randomly created this fun snake french braid {or zig zag french braid} the other day and though I haven’t seen it before, it doesn’t mean it doesn’t already exist somewhere with an entirely different name. But obviously, I had to share it with you. It’s easy but difficult, if that makes sense. The one …
If you follow me on Instagram you already know about this because I shared it there see photos below but the other night I slept on twisted buns to get these BIG CURLS just to switch it up a little which the husband LOVES. In fact he said “You know, you could do that MORE …
I’m not the originator of this hair style but I’ve gotten so many requests for it, I thought I’d give it a go for you. I don’t know what it’s called either so I haven’t researched it and/or found any other tutorials for it …thus, this is my version of it, and I’ve dubbed it …
Even though there are tons of fishtail hair tutorials on youtube …I keep getting requests for one. So, I give you . . . a how-to fishtail braid video {sorry it’s a little dark} but enjoy. Once you know how to fishtail, doing them for any hairstyle is quite simple. The one I did in …
These little rope braids are a fun way to add a little style with your own hair, creating a sort-of headband of sorts. Your hair doesn’t need to be extremely long, but you do need some length to cover the top of your head with. If you have layers, you could instead create a tiny …
I wore a more relaxed version of this hair style in an outfit post in June of 2009 but for reasons unbeknownst to me, I never did a tutorial for it. Recently though, a few of my lovely readers have asked for it …so here it is. Enjoy! If you can’t see the video go …
