Toddler Sides Up

Simple easy toddler style.

First make a square part on the left side of her head and secure with an elastic.

Next take a small amount of hair across the front top of her head. I secured it with an elastic on the right side of the part as shown below.

Then I pulled both ponytails and the rest of her sides up into a final ponytail.

Last step is I used a flat iron and made ringlets in her hair.

Crimped Hair

My oldest daughter has been on a I want crimped hair phase.

The first time she wanted it crimped I took her hair right out of the bath so it was wet and made 4 french braids. I figured this would be the easiest way to get crimps without all the work. **NOTE** when she wakes up in the morning make sure the braids are dry. Hers were not so I took the blow dryer to them for a few minutes.

The picture below is the next morning hair. They turned out really cute.

Only a day later she wanted crimps again. I decided since the braids worked so well the first time we did them again. This time I did 5 braids because her center braid the day before was much bigger than the rest. She decided to be helpful and pull the braids out before she talked to me. Needless to say they were not dry. The whole center and back of her hair was straight.

So mom to the rescue we had a crimping iron and the work began.

Luckily we did not have to crimp the entire thing we just touched up the straight areas.

Below are the results.

So for my personal opinion if anyone would like it. The french braids were much easier and much faster. However the crimping iron gave us a more even crimp.

Toddler Simple Pony

This is truly a simple ponytail. her hair is finally long enough for a ponytail. We used the flat iron to give the ponytail really cute curls. I posted a couple of pictures to show everyone the personality of my little Monkey.

The key to keeping the ponytail looking smooth is doing it while its wet or using a spray bottle to wet the sides.

Roberto Cavalli 2011

When I first saw this show I didn’t like it, but after a few minutes I realized it is really beautiful. Roberto Cavalli has gone from over the top glam rock chick, to sexy, gypsy hippy girl. She looks relaxed, easy, and the clothing is effortless. I like it.

I Love…

Roberto Cavalli's nouveau gypsy girl.

the mix of textures, the brocade pants, and the soft layering

the textiles patterns mixed together. The red brocade, and the animal print on the fur and legging look amazing.

this fantastic hippy dress.

Roberto Cavalli's use of animal prints. Amazing.

Dolce & Gabbana a catwalk full of pantless women

This Dolce & Gabbana collection was all about the classic pieces in which their brand is known for: leopard print dresses, sexy tailoring, and corsetry influences. I think it is a strong collection, and looks great on the catwalk, but I am a bit confused about the no-pants looks. Although the tailored jackets look fantastic, and there is no doubt this is a striking way to end a fashion show, I am not sure I really understand why they are all wearing panties and jackets. To me, this show is a blatant exhibition of clothing to be bought and worn: completely commercial, desirable Dolce & Gabbana, so why are the models bare bottomed?

I Love…
