Low and Full Ponytail


Today's post is a tribute to a totally nontraditional ponytail.
On the left is my hair on one of my many days at work when I rushed to get there.
I gave it a product fill up and followed by a rough blow dry.
Then, realizing I was running out of time, I took advantage of the volume
and whipped it into two ponytails.  I don't want to call them pigtails
 because the style just didn't have a "pigtail" look.
I wore one pony behind my shoulder and one pony in front of the other shoulder. 
( You know I love "Ragamuffin" style and this fits me perfectly!! )

So the photo on the right??  Well, that's a funny story.
Last night before going to bed I was perusing an old Allure magazine. 
(I am quite the magazine junkie)
So I open it up and there on the page was the fuller bottom ponytail
by
Orlando Pita!
I was so excited; I had to get out my pics that we had taken from a while back and
 share them with you guys.  So wild.
I love seeing incredible hairdressers who think alike!!!!

So here are a few more pics from my crazy day after work.




So,.... would you even consider wearing such a style??
Better yet,... what's YOUR quick fix hairstyle??

    If I had long hair, I would totally wear such a style. it's cute, fun, flirty. I like it. I guess I'm off to grow out my hair now ...

      I have two words for you --- clip on extensions!!

      I've done this style since these pics were taken after some sleek flat ironing and it does look so cute.
      You should send me a pic if you try it!

      It was "one of those days" but it turned out kinda cutesy.

      Thanks for the comment!

Beauty and the Bible

Psalm 149:4 For the Lord takes pleasure in His people; He will beautify the humble with salvation. "He will beautify the humble with salvation"~~ If God were my Rachel Zoe, my own personal stylist, He would first choose to clothe me in salvation. "..Clothe me in salvation". Before He can do this He has to get me ready for my style session. This takes a bit of planning and thought. God must set the stage, so to speak. A good stylist plans, prepares, gathers needed material, and gets a full vision for the overall and complete look. In this case, I was so unattractive or plainly said, ugly as sin or maybe better to say "ugly with sin". This sin is so ugly that He cannot even look on me. If we started here God wouldn't even be able to take my measurements. God cannot be with sin. He sees this as a problem that must be fixed. We've got to wash sin away. The sin must go before anything can be done. As you've seen on What Not To Wear ...

Beauty & the Bible The Collection pt 4: "Ocean"

Moving on. If you're new to the blog, PLEASE go back and read the 3 previous entries. I know it'll be worth it. And thanks, I'm glad you're here! As a recap, I'm imagining God as my personal stylist. I've tried on 3 looks so far during my style session. You've got to read all about it. "Salvation", "Active Wear", and "Fierce". All very different looks but equally essential parts of this collection. As I look around for my next look I feel God going in a very different direction. A bit more serene. --I've been saved---I'm running here, there, and everywhere---I've even done some spriritual battle. But I can feel a draw that is pulling me to an outfit that's not so much for show but more for a comfortable, sweet, bonding time. I can't help but think of white, light, gauzy like material. So of course I imagine that God has planted me on the beach. In the late afternoon I can feel the light warmth ...

Ya think??

I have the BEST Mama in the world.  Like for real - ya'll. No joke.  She's like the bomb-diggity.  And whether or not you  use that term doesn't matter because my Mama seriously is that . She has patience that I can only hope for. She has an ability to think things and NOT say them. She may forget to get the rolls out of the oven for dinner;  but I forget to BUY the rolls in the first place. She loves helping people anyway she can. She goes WAY out of her way to help people.  It's amazing. And she' not going to tell you about it either. Oh my friends, God made her good.  So I tell you that to tell you about a card she gave me for my birthday this last year. I was turning 43.  (* Eeegads *) But the age is not important.  She gave me this card like I'm sure so many of you have seen before. A card with all of these attributes that I'm supposed to have. Well, for some reason it struck me ...
