Half up topknot!?


Now that the temperatures have cooled down and we're not so desperate to get all that hot hair off of our necks, topknots aren't such a necessity. However, they're still so effortlessly cool and look great year round, so for fall, I like the half up topknot. It's chic and easy like the traditional topknot, but leaving some hair down just makes it look and feel a little cozier.

I'm starting to see this look more and more. I think it's a great way to have the best of both worlds, and you don't even have to have long hair to pull it off! I love the way the half up topknot looks on a girl with a bob. Or a girl with bangs. Basically, this is a versatile look that I hope continues to grow in the hair trend world. I can see myself wearing this all throughout the fall and into the winter too!

Would you wear the half up topknot?

Mad Men Obsession!

I love Mad Men. If you haven’t seen it yet, i recommend watching the first four seasons on Netflix ASAP. Very well written, and the costume/set design are incredible. And the hair... I can't get enough of it! My favorite actress right now is on that show. Christina Hendricks plays Joan, a gorgeous curvy woman that runs the office. Its such a breath of fresh air to have woman that is not a size 0/2 playing such a big role on a TV show. It has given me faith in the media again.  Christina is healthy and confident and she is an example of what we need in more television/movies. I just love her, and her sexy, big, fiery red hair.
Anyone else obsessed with this show?
