Nice Buns Hun

so for the past few months - i've been throwing my hair up - on the top of my head in a very messy bun style - the type that throughout the day it gets messy and messier and i just let it be - i haven't had much 'umph' to really care how my hair looks ..


but it seems as tho my 'just throwing it on top of my head and forgetting about it' hair style is popping up all over the place:

Whitney Port

a girl from Stockholm

off the 2011 S/S runway

photo shoots

off the streets - the messier the better i say!

even Lauren Conrad throws it up for mid-day outings

looks like Kim just throws it on top of her head and runs out the door!

there ya have it - perfect messy bun hair!



DO YOU DO THE MESSY BUN THING?
i have a feeling this style is going to be staying with me for awhile
*wink*

My Life:
GIRLS NIGHT tonight! - this time at my girl Krit's pad - it's gonna be GREEN GALORE! - she's the Irish girl in the pack, so she's throwing the Irish theme party - which btw did you know TODAY is INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY?! -- CELEBRATE LADIES!!!! - time for the bubbly!



OH and remember i asked your advice on "Bag Decisions"? - well i was THIIIIS close on clicking 'confirm' on a large Chloe Paraty bag yesterday - but i somehow got myself to click the "X" on the top of the screen - WHY? - well with research i found the CC Skye Onie bag in the color taupe! - i'm thinking it will be PERFECT - it hasn't be 'released' yet, so i'm in contact with the buyer to get the 411's - and i think THAT will be my new bag! - and will save me a TON of $$$!!!

  4. I remember these days well. I have crazy short hair now so I don't have to "deal" with my hair anymore, love it. My daughter has long hair and I believe the messy bun is her style of choice :)

  9. messy hair FTW! too bad i'm growing out an old dye job, so when i plop it all on top, the ends look rather...orange-y. i mean, it's kind of cool in a weird way. :P

    link to your (probably) new baggy bag?

  12. I love the messy bun hair situation, I envy those who look fabulous with this hair style!
    I always manage to look good doing then when not trying, then why I do try it goes horribly wrong!

    Love the photographs darling

  14. Hey Erika, thanks so much for your post on my blog, I'm following you now!
    Loving your messy bun idea - I have naturally curly hair but have been obsessively straightening it for the past few months. However yesterday I wore it curly, threw it in a bun, and couldn't help thinking it looked great every time I looked in a mirror! haha, hopefully this will stick and it will save me time glued to my straightener :P
    Lovely blog!

  23. I've been embracing the messy hair/bun look for awhile now too! It's perfect with my bangs, too. Gotta love it.

    I'm glad you're saving $ on the bag and getting the one you really wanted, even if it's a diff. color! Woot!

  24. i ALWAYS have a messy bun going...it's something i have rocked since 7th grade haha. i'm glad it is finally getting some recognition!!

    ReplyDelete
  25. I definitely do... probably more often than I should!

    ReplyDelete
  26. Yup! It's my favourite work hair-do. In fact, even when my hair's out it's messy. I have so much of it it's too hard to tame hahaha!

  28. I love that look so much but unfortunately it takes me so much effort and I can never pull it and make it look that cool. I wish I looked like that in less than 5 minutes of prep time.

    ReplyDelete
  29. yes! embrace messy hair!!!...for years I tried to tame my wavy messy hair spending hours with the flat iron...but now I just let it be!!! I love those messy buns....

  30. I adore the last image. So pretty with the flowers and the girl's back with messy hair. Gives the impression she has just woken up and about to make coffee;-)
    Messy hair is excellent for those busy days indeed;-)

  31. I love messy buns or a messy pony... it's just a really cute look! xo

    ReplyDelete
  32. It is such a gorgeous look - when done right! But is it really that "effortless"? My guess is that those girls spent more time doing their hair than they'd like us to think..

    ReplyDelete
  33. Under the age of 30 it looks cute, after that and you run the risk of looking like you've got "the mom bun". I guess if you're dressed cute it works.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I do and love it but only when I am dressed right. If I am in my sweats I try to do a sleeker style so it looks like I just like my sweats rather than being a total slob. ha

    ReplyDelete
  35. Love this post...I totally do the messy bun thing like everyday. I have ridiculously long (not naturally straight) hair so to have to straighten it everyday is a drag, so I just put it up in a messy bun. And actually, right now I have it in a messy braid. I love mess LOL. Great blog...thanks for visiting mine, come back again soon :-)

  36. Mine doesn't fall naturally the way these girls' do! It's curly for one thing so I have a hard time with the messy bun, but love seeing these chicks rock it!

  38. I love the messy bun, but I feel like I spend way too much time trying to un-perfect it. And, yes, I know how ridiculous that is. My bun seems to do this weird floppy thing, though.

  40. I WISH I could do this. I always want to, but I have a really big forhead and I end up looking MEAN when I pull all of it back. It's always made me sads! Great inspirational clothes on this blog! Love it!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Oh I so embrace messy hair!! I love to just throw my hair up into ponies or buns like these! I am so happy not that my hair is longer that I can do that with!:)
