after literally taping my braid "shut" on a hike Sunday,
I decided to stop being hair lazy and try my hand at some of these braid trends that are floating the web waves.
I've seen my share of fishtail tutorials but Cupcakes and Cashmere by far makes the most sense.
I think I need to use smaller sections next time..
As to the twist braid.. I first tried this one thanks to this Refinery29 post
and I have to say, it's easy peasy!

Next up this

What hair trends are you diggin'?
Are you over the dip die fad that's been sweeping tresses across the land for some time now?
(mine washed out a bit too quick, I think I might want to do it again...)

a couple faves...
///JewelMint ring///
Bijouterie, dollar store gold zigzag and monet bracelets...
are you rocking the "arm party" "wrist candy" "stack" or are you pairing down?
I'm liking a few selects these days... but then tomorrow I might stack em up to my elbows so... who knows.

we hiked

I was a little hasty in preparing for our hike... just went out the door....

realized I was wearing a very non-hiking get-up consisting of 

a silk shirt and Sperry's  -_-

(+ a scotch tape hair-tie cause I forgot a real one )

...

I've been digging circles a lot as of late.

There is always major circle inspo from Ana at liveandenliven.com 

(Her shop poster announcing the end of summer sale is superb! See it here)

 and Bri's "Shoe Closet" post at design love fest

has super awesome circle stuff happening.

What blogs are inspiring you today?
