All American

DSC_5535
My outfit doesn't get more American than this with the patriotic colors, galloping horse sweater and jean jacket. I also have that country music star hair which further qualifies me as 'murican. I wore this outfit two consecutive days this past weekend, from my Friday workday outfit to my Saturday trip to Chicago. It makes overnight stays very easy to pack for! 
You'll also notice straight hair--something I don't have very often since my days of college. I used to always, always straighten my hair in high school and the beginning of college, but as I grow older, I just don't feel like doing it. At least now, I've found a very simple solution to when I want my hair to be more manageable. It's an hour and $78 away from a stylist named Michelle who I took a chance on. Bless her heart.

Wow, you look very Brigitte Bardot-ish with your straight hair! I love it both ways. I really like the different details of your outfit that, when put together, make it interesting to look at!

Curly or straight, you have the most amazing hair. I would do just about anything for mine to look like that. Oh well.

Super cute outfit and your hair looks fabulous!!

Straightening your hair DOES take a long time, especially when you have a lot of it. I like to straighten mine almost to the end. After I'm done, I scrunch the ends which brings out my natural waves. I like the look and I figure it'll keep the ends healthier.

Wow! You are such a knockout!

And the cut of those shoes is amazing. Great outfit!

Kirstin Marie said...

Frannie Pantz said...

Bless her heart indeed. Your hair looks AMAZING!!! As a fellow curly haired gal, I can totally sympathize with not wanting to straighten it--it takes forevah-evah. Love it on you though!

Hannah said...

Holy bejeezus, your hair!! Not fair that you are a knock out both with curly and straight hair.

I too used to straighten my hair everyday back in my college days. How did I ever find the time/motivation? Crazy.
