I’ve been looking at a lot of different blogs lately, trying to get some fashion and hair inspiration and to generally see what’s hot for the coming spring/summer season. One things for certain and that’s braids are in in a big way. Even at the Fashion Aid Ball the other night a lot of girls had their hair in braids, so I thought I’d give it another whirl and start teaching myself how to do side braids properly. I’ve tried doing them before (and even posted them on the blog), but I just can’t seem to know which way to position my hands – I know, I’m a klutz!
A side braid always conjures up images of the 80s, which is never a bad thing in my book, although in this instance I forewent the frosted blue eyeshadow! Braids are super girly and feminine so I thought I’d team it with my purple leather Esprit jacket to “harden” it up a bit. OK, so it’s not real leather, but you know I’m a budget savvy lady. What do you think? Do you wear braids? Have any handy tips and tricks on how to do one on yourself? I’d be forever grateful.ย

Thanks Kristy! Not bad for my first attempt. For some reason I don’t know how to position my hands. Need a lot more “hair time” ๐ xo
So funny you’re going into spring/summer, and we’re starting fall/winter!
Bring on the warm weather ๐
