Boots and Wool

 Is it Winter or is it Spring?




Spring is on its way but it seems no one alerted mother nature. The temperature is still quite cold and the air is just as dry as it was 2 months ago. I no longer have to wear my puffy winter coat, but I can't run around in a cardigan either. There is a simple solution to this problem.

During the last few weeks of winter, and this odd  weather transition, I like to revisit my fall wardrobe. I find that this is the easiest way to keep warm and still look cute. A few examples below.









You can simply wear brighter colors to transform a fall wardrobe into a pre-spring wardrobe.
Hope this helps.

Bed Head


 Have you ever woken up with hair that could rival Albert Einstein? Rest assured you're not alone. For most people "bed head" is a result of tossing and turning during the night. Buying a silk pillowcase or wrapping your hair is an option, but it doesn't always work. Most days I wake up looking like the photo below.

 


Waking up to a bad hair day is a common problem. The first thing we reach for is a hat. The problem is that wearing a hat over crazy hair is noticeable and not always appropriate. For example, imagine you were an attorney. I doubt the judge would allow you to wear a baseball cap in the court room. Luckily there is a cute alternative. Headbands.

When someone mentions headbands, we get the mental image of a little girl with pigtails or a basketball player. There are however headbands for everyday women.



With my terrible sleeping habits I often find myself rushing out the house after hitting the snooze button several times. Headbands have been my savior and they can be worn during any season.
