Natural HairStyles: Braided Updo

I couldn't stay away for too much longer!

These hairstyles are from early this summer.

(yea, I'm just now posting them in the fall...)

I went to get my hair styled (idk how to flat braid).

[This was the day after.] Everyday after that, I played

around with the styling. [the following pictures]

After about two weeks it was time to take it down. So this was my last

style from this updo! {my fav}

HAIRSTYLES

The evolution of one hairstyle.  

Two-Strand Twists with Flat Twisted Back

I twisted the front center section of my hair, rolled it under, and pinned it.

The back is two flat twists (starting from the front and meeting in center-back)

with the loose twist pinned to opposite sides (looks like a braid).

FlatTwisted Two-Strand Twists with Flat Twist Back

Here I flat twisted sections of my twists and pinned it to the side!

Two-Strand TwistOut with Flat Twists back

I simply took out my twists and pinned my curls to the side!

Peplum Looks

This peplum trend is pretty popular. I've seen these tops worn at 

parties and they are actually figure flattering! The peplum looks 

I've seen were so cute that I just had to create a few peplum looks

on Polyvore!

-

Print Peplum Top & Pencil Skirt

This look is one of the most common peplum looks: peplum w/ pencil skirt. 

This ikat print top evokes a tribal, ethnic vibe; so pairing it with earthy

brown & wood accessories paired just right!

-

Studded Peplum Top & Full, Flared Skirt

I don't see this pairing often, but when the right peplum top meets the

right flared skirt. the look works! This is a nice way to pull off this trend

for any one who doesn't want to wear a form-fitting pencil skirt. 

A-Line all the way!

-

Stripe Peplum Top & Floral Bordered Full, Flare Skirt

This is a fun & bold look! The collar necklace is perfect with this striped look

because it borders the neckline of the top just as the floral print borders

the black skirt. Plus strips and floral is such an appealing pairing!

HAIR {styled simple.}

. Two Quick Hair Styles .

Large Flat Twist & Knit Hat

Just a large flat twist and a hat! The rest of my hair was either

confined by twists or "tamed" by twist out....

-

Large Flat Twists w/ Hair Clipped

This style I did unintentionally! I was just flat twisting my hair so

that I could wear it curly, but then I saw the flat twists in the front

and liked it! So I kept them in!

~

Large Flat Twists are so easy, simple & cute! Luv doing 

them for a quick manageable, style!

PersonalStyle: Cardigan & Tribal Print Top | NaturalHairStyle: Bun & Curls

This is a look I wore a few weeks ago to a performance/gig 

I did with these awesome singers!

[Here on YouTube]

Personal Styled Look

The knit cardigan and tribal print top are from Forever21. The brown pants

are from Lane Bryant. These pants are one of my favorite because they are the 

"Right Fit™" [read all about it here]. The pants stretch, so they are comfortable, 

and they came in petite so I didn't have to go through the trouble of hemming!

I styled this look by belting the cardigan at the hips instead of the waist. 

This way I could show more of the bold tribal print top. Doing this also added 

some length to my torso. (I felt that the necklace and belt were too close

together and it looked odd and made me look stumpy.)  The necklace was 

long so I wrapped it around once to make it shorter.

Natural Hair Style

Flat Twisted front with Curls & a Bun

I used these curlers called Curlformers®!

These things are GREAT! You have to get some! They are 

for all hair types, they're easy to use, and you can do it all by yourself!

It's way better that curling irons because you don't have to use heat 

to set these, (unless you are pressed for time and you use a hair dryer).

The rest of my hair is the result of a large flat twist-out . Doing this

allows my hair to lay flatter so that I can style it. I then made a center 

part and flat twisted a front section of hair. I created this bun by 

sectioning the back hair; leaving it loose, and putting the rest of my 

hair into a ponytail. I then took the loose hair and tucked it and the hair

in the ponytail up and pinned it into place.

PersonalStyle: Layered Fall Look + PolyvoreSet

Grey Knit Vest layered over 

Black Thermal with Floral Skinny Belt

I got the cute, drapey vest from Kohls and the thermal & belt from Forever 21. I'm always layering and this vest is one of my favorite pieces to do this with. The floral skinny belt adds a pop of color and is a nice contrast to all the darker colors. The vest has a loose fit [perfect for layering & belting] which doesn't hug, but lightly skims over the figure. I took advantage of the loose fit and draped the fabric over the belt.

I styled this look on Polyvore inspired by my own look!
