friendly Friday: summerish

10 Jun

The brilliant Katy Rose at Modly Chic links up fashion and beauty bloggers via the FBFF google group, asking weekly questions about blogging and life. Check it out here. This week, Katy asked for us all to give our top 5 summer trends.

I need to admit something: I’m not very trendy. Nor do I invest much in summer clothes, as summer in the Pacific Northwest last only about a hot minute before the rains start again. But here’s what’s on my radar for this summer:

And my final summer trend: big, glorious, no-heat curls:


No joke: I used absolutely no heat on this and you all know how straight my hair is naturally. In the summer, when it’s too hot to blow dry, I love to use this vintage technique for curls that I learned way back when (theatre camp, I believe). Here’s a great video that describes the process I use — it’s so simple and a great, no-fuss way to do your hair in the summer. Nothing makes me feel more summery than big, bouncy, messy curls!

Now back to the barbeque preparations! I’ll be back tomorrow with pictures from our fest.
