Fashionably Feminine

Hello friends,

     I love my new lace-trimmed top and wanted to fix my hair in a style to match.  My hair had braid waves from my hairstyle yesterday, so instead of combing out the waves I made a center mohawk braid and added a big wavy bun.  My center mohawk braid is actually an infinite braid, but I think I need to perfect this technique.  My wire bow accent was the perfect finishing touch to this hairstyle.

     Thank you so much for visiting my blog today, I wish you a very lovely week ahead.

Braids and Flowers

Hello my friends,

     Thank you for visiting my blog, I hope you have had an amazing weekend.  Today I fixed my hair in a waterfall braid/lace braid combination, and added a side braided bun.  I was wearing a favorite brightly colored dress, so I put flowers in my hair to match.  My Micronesian friends and I posed for a picture together later this morning, how sweet.

Bohemian-style Dutch braid updo

Hello everyone, Happy Friday!

     Today I fixed my hair in a Dutch braid but I put the length of my hair into a ponytail at the base of my neck.  Then I tugged on only one side of my braid, which gave it a very loose, boho look.  I braided my ponytail into a big loose 3-strand braid, and wound this braid up into a low bun.  I used a couple of fancy bobby pins to hold the loose hair on each side of my boho braid.  I love how this style turned out!  It's messy, in a tasteful way.  The afternoon light was perfect for taking hair pictures.  Thank you for coming to view my post!

Field of Flowers Updo

Hi friends,

     This hairstyle seems to go perfectly with a field of ginger and other flowers in the background, plus the flowers on my dress.  My updo is basically a series of twisted sections of hair with a big bun, all clipped in place with my favorite small hair clips.  No braiding needed to create this style :-)

Lace braids, butterfly clips and sunlit leaves

Hi friends,

     A few days ago I fixed my hair in this style made with lace braids and a side bun.  What is it about lace braids that make me love them so much... (And of course, I love my small hair clips almost equally as much!)

     I hope you have a lovely week.  Thank you for taking time to visit my blog and check out my new posts.  See you soon!

Lilith Moon-inspired lace braid hairstyle

Hi everyone,

     Yesterday I saw a picture from Lilith Moon, one of my favorite hairstyle bloggers.  She shared the side view of a hairstyle using two small lace braids and an extra accent braid.  This was such a pretty idea, I tried my own version today, with a side bun instead of a ponytail.  I'm trying out a new phone camera, so my pictures today are screenshots from a video I took showing every angle of this hairstyle.  Thank you for coming to see my new post, I hope you have a lovely week.
