The hairstyles alone were enough to keep me browsing the site for hours (I suddenly feel an intense urge to pile my hair into a very tall bun), but the light-as-air pleats made me really fall in love with Juliette Hogan! Aren’t these dresses just gorgeous? I could spend all season in these fluttery pieces, and I am seriously considering making a tank top and long pleated skirt my summer uniform. Remember when you were a little girl how you would twirl around while trying on dresses to see which one looked the prettiest spinning around you? (That wasn’t just me, right?) I have a feeling that is the first thing I would do in one of Juliette’s creations, twirl, twirl, twirl!

I’ve noticed that when I have nowhere special to be, and nothing special to do, my hair tends to look fantastic, but as soon as there is a cocktail party on the agenda it refuses to behave. Cowlicks, odd bumps, and static galore. This holiday season I’ve decided to practice a go-to chignon that I can throw together quickly when my hair decides to rebel. The chignon above is so lovely I think I would like to wear it even on a good hair day.
Tell me, do you have a quick bun or updo in your arsenal? Any tips on how to throw my hair up without looking too fussy (or using 1000 bobby pins)? Tricks for keeping it from falling apart all night?
P.S. How gorgeous is that redhead? Between the hair, the lips, and the sweet dress, I think my fairy god mother needs to wave her wand and turn me into her!
