How To: Create a Hair Bow
For most of my life I have been wearing my hair up in a ponytail, braid or some sort of messy updo. A while ago I showed my hair in a hair bow, and I received numerous requests to see just how it\’s done. It\’s easier to do a hair bow if you have shorter hair (you\’ll get a prettier bow). If you have long hair like mine just be armed with lots of bobby pins to complete the look.

Five Things
{Apple picking with Mum at Miller\’s Big Red}
Last Friday I headed home to Michigan on one mission…. to go apple picking with my mum. A tradition that we have done every year since I was basically a baby. While we were able to go to Miller\’s Big Red apple orchard and pick some amazing apples we were both sick and feeling very under the weather – which meant that shopping really didn\’t take place… at all.
{Finally found the Missoni ballet flats only to return them due to toe cleavage}
{Mum\’s homemade cream puffs}
{mini pumpkins at the orchard and cider mill}
{current nail polish: China Glaze Street Chic and China Glaze Peachy Keen for the accent finger}
Ballet Flats… Love Them or Hate Them?
Flats can always make any outfit look classy and put together. I am only 4\’11 so I usually avoid flats and wear heels. However with flats in every single store I have myself wanting a pair. I began to try pairs on, and the problem I found is toe cleavage…. it\’s not a sexy look. Does anyone else have that problem? What is your favorite brand/pair of flats?
Whimsical Runway Ponytails
While going through pictures from NYFW SS12 I noticed a trend…ponytails are a must and there are so many creative ways to do them. From bumps, to bubbles and added in braids I am loving the looks and definitely will be recreating them. What do you think of these ponytails?
PS my boys…. the Detroit Tigers are AL Central Division Champs ❤
