Happy Friday. We are off to another wedding this weekend...yay! I've been to so many weddings, you'd think by now I'd have a well thought out plan of what to wear, but last night I got a bit panicked and tried on pretty much my entire closet. I finally found something, and then couldn't figure out how I would do my hair. I'm thinking of wearing it up (gasp!). Nothing too crazy. A fishtail braid or a messy ponytail both seem like a good fit for me.
beachy hair please.
I've been all sorts of obsessed with wavy "look at me, I just got out of the ocean" hair lately. I wish I could say that my mane was easily manipulated into this gorgeous messy look, but the truth is, it takes some serious work. But I'm willing to do it. I love this intentionally undone look.
hair + clothes.

lashes + curls.
Sometimes I get in a little beauty rut. Meaning, I wear my hair much the same every single day and my makeup rarely changes. But I think I'm ready to shake things up. I'm dreaming of bolder eyes. Some longer lashes and a slight cat eye. And I'm seriously loving this girl's full.big.curly.messy hair. I'm usually not one for big hair, but this style is blowing my mind. Ummmm hello pretty!
fringe.
Off and on throughout my life, I've had bangs. First as a child and then two different times as an adult. Every so often I get tempted to take the plunge into fringe life again. I love them so, but I inevitably start wanting to grow them out after only a month. ha! I have a hair appointment coming up in the next few weeks, so I better make my decision quickly. To fringe or not?
going lighter.
This hair color? YES please. I've been loving my ombre hair, but now I'm thinking I may want to go even lighter. And when I spotted the below picture I thought that this might be just the look I am going for. Ha, we shall see, as I seem to change my mind about this every few days. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
beauty.
What is your beauty routine? My daytime look is straight hair worn down with a swipe of mascara and a touch of lip gloss. For the evening, I've been creating beachy waves and adding a bold lip. Isn't it sooo true that you always want what you can't have? When I was younger I didn't quite like my stick straight hair, always wanting something with a little more volume. But now I completely love my straight hair. It's so easy to do, and I can easily add in a little curl to achieve some body.
updo.
This fall I'm going to be a bridesmaid in a dear friend from college's wedding (yay!). I'm on the search for a cute updo. I rarely ever wear my hair up, so it's really hard for me to find something that I like and that I think will work for my hair. My hair is naturally stick straight, so getting any kind of body out of it is a bit of a task. I've started pinning a few styles that I like, but any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
