Ponytail Unicorn Braided Bun

I am all about cute creative buns and this is one of those hairstyles. I've never seen any one wearing a bun like this and they are so easy to make and the style to me looks like it takes a lot of time and effort to get it but in reality it only take 2 minutes!

I believe that every braid, or twist can be made into a cute bun and I love trying out cute hairstyles. Usually I stand in front of my mirror, and just mess with my hair and figure out what hairstyles I can come up with and this is one that I thought was super cute.

Here's how you make it.

Materials Needed

1. Hairbrush
2. Hair ties
3. Bobby Pin/ hair clips
4. Hair spray

This look can be done on any hair type, especially curly hair.

1. Braid your hair into a unicorn braid. You can find my hair tutorial here

2. Next just grab your braid and wrap it around itself until it resembles the messy bun you want. I like to wear my buns big, so I usually wrap the braid really loose around itself and then pin it in place with bobby pins.

3. And there you have a cute new messy bun!

I hope you give this look a try. It is so cute and perfect for fall!

Bolds: Pink + Blue

Bottoms: Target

Oxfords: Amazon

This outfit has been one of my favorites this summer. The colors are so bold and just really make the outfit pop. I'm really loving mixing blues and pinks this summer and the simpleness of this outfit just blows me away. The shoes are some of my favorites for this look. I shared with you about my ultimate love of oxfords two weeks ago and these are my oxfords. They are brown suede and are absolutely adorable and add a whole other dimension to this outfit with the texture.

Also, I've been working on some new cute hairstyles and this one I just adore. It's super easy and simple and is basically a side twist into an inside out side pony. This is just a fun chic hair style and it really pulls the outfit together.

I would love to hear some of your favorite styles that you enjoyed this summer and what your looking forward to wearing this fall.

How to Unicorn Braid

I've seen a ton of cute braids lately, but one that I really like is the unicorn braid. It's really different from other braids and looks so cute. Here's how you do a unicorn braid.

1. Place your hair on one side of your face and part it down the middle.

2. Then twist the strands and just act like your doing a braid and just keep placing one section of hair behind the other. Basically your just twisting a section of hair behind the other section of hair and so on.

3. Then when you reach the end use a hair tie and some hair spray and your finished!

I hope you give this look a try! It is perfect for a day when you just what to leaver your hair alone but don't want to leave it down.

I wish I could say it's cool in Texas, but it is blazing hot and doesn't even feel like fall. I'm praying that it gets cool soon. As much as I love shorts and cute tanks and v-necks, I'm ready for the fall, cool weather.

 

I love to wear orange, gold and brown centered outfits and due to my basically 5 month summer I'm a little tired of wearing super bright colors and I'm not enjoy the fact that when I walk outside I'm immediately sweating. I'm sorry if I come off like I'm rude or hate summer, but since I live in the hottest part of Texas, I feel as if I have rights to be a little ticked that it's still hot.

 

Well, I hope your weather is cooled down. Please pray that Texas weather goes down a couple degrees this week.

This outfit is one that I absolutely love! The bright pants instead of a bright top really bring a twist to the average bold outfit. I got these pants at Target at the beginning of summer and I'm absolutely loving them!

Fall is almost here and I can't wait! I love cool weather and I have so many cute outfits that I want to try out with these bright pants. I hope you have a great Tuesday!!

How to do a Messy Braid

 I know tons of people know how to braid but I for those of you who may need a tip or two or just a visual help in perfecting your braiding, this is for you.

Materials Needed:

• Hair Tie
• Hair Brush
• A Headband (optional)
• Hair spray (optional)

 

1. Start of with straight, curly or wavy hair. I prefer doing my braids when my hair is curly. I just think it looks super cute and messier than the regular straight braids that girls sport.

 2. Bring your hair to the side and split it into three equal pieces.

 3. Next  you have the option of how you want your braid to look. For those who want the braid tight to your face use this method.

Method 1: For a Tighter Braid You can take the piece closest to your face and bring it in front of your middle section of hair and place it there. Then bring the section of hair farthest from your hair over the middle section. Then just proceed doing the same thing over and over until you reach the tip of your hair and secure it with a hair tie.

 Method 2: For a Looser Fuller Braid. You can take the piece farthest to your face and bring it across in front of your middle section of hair and place it there, making it now the middle section of the braid. Then bring the section of hair closest to your hair over the middle section, making it the middle section of the braid. Then just proceed doing the same thing over and over until you reach the tip of your hair and secure it with a hair tie.

 4. After you've secured your braid with a hair tie,
Method 1: For a Messy Look. Now use your fingers to loosen up your braid. Just pull slightly on each row of the braid to give it a fuller look. This gives the braid a messier appearance. You can also add a cute headband to complete the messy braid look.
Method 2: For a Sleek Look. If you want a sleeker looking braid, just leave the braid tight and pull the hair tie tight to secure the look. Also you can use hairspray to tame any fly a ways.

 And tada, your finished! You know have a gorgeous messy braid. p.s. you can pull out a couple of strand around your face to make it an even messier braid. My hair is too long for that, but those of you with layers can get away with that cute look.

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial. I love braids and this is my go to hair style when my hair is in the way. It's also a way to get cute loose curls if you sleep on it over night. You can do so many other cute looks through just a braid, so I'll be showing you some more cute looks with braids over the next couple weeks.
