The Great Bun Debate

I put the question to my friends on Instagram {and if we aren't friends on there, hop to it! @breezy_days}, on whether the girls usually lean towards a messy bun or a top knot for those days when your hair is just plotting to ruin your entire day. I was surprised that it was basically a 50/50 response! A few voted for the top knot because it was more professional looking, others said messy bun all day 'err day, and some just said that you don't actually get to decide...your hair does.

If my hair isn't doing anything for me that day, it's no doubt in a bun. So now it's decision time...When I'm throwing up my messy bun it's because I'm feeling sassy & bohemian that day. My make-up is did, the loosey goosey outfit is picked out, and I just don't have time to worry about my hair 'do. The top knot is for those days when I'm feelin' extra blogger, collegiate, or classy. Thus, I'm usually a little more streamlined when wearing my top knot. Sooo yes, you can tell what kind of mood I'm in based on the pile of hair pinned to the top of my head. 

So now it's your turn to chirp in....what's your bun of choice?

Movie Star

As soon as I tried on this dress at Ross {found for under $18, check out my dress shopping strategy here}, I just knew I would have to go all out and play vintage movie star for a day when wearing it. I jazzed up this lace frock with MAC Rebel lipstick, Steve Madden nude heels, and a vintage crystal necklace passed down from my Grandma. Sometimes I think that I was born in the wrong decade...I definitely could have been a 40's jazz singer alongside Ella Fitzgerald or a 50's housewife in another life. I swoon over the crooning of Billie Holiday and exaggerated fit & flare dresses. Good thing I was born in this time so I could be and wear all those things and confuse the heck out of people. ;)
