Generally, I don’t fuss much with my hair. Most mornings I don’t have time to do anything more than straighten my bangs. If I’m being really ambitious and/or trying to be fancy, I’ll curl my hair (I still don’t think I’m good at this yet!). NYFW is one of the few times a year I actually bother trying to make my hair look like it’s been styled, so I turned to Pinterest for some easy hairstyles that I could maybe recreate. In an ideal world, look #1 would be my everyday hair, but alas, my curling iron skills are still lacking. Looks #4 and #5 seem pretty easy and I love how simple and girly look #2 is. Look #3 seems the hardest to me (french braid into a regular braid, wrapped around), but I still have a couple more days to practice, right?
Tell me: How do you usually wear your hair?
Lots of NYFW coverage coming your way starting tomorrow! Follow along on Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest for snaps from the tents and my fashion week commentary!
![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.

Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?
[P.S. This is an old photo that includes a HarperCollins UK title, but please note that I support the HarperCollins Union.]

I love this post! I am waiting for the day where my hair is long enough to do hairstyle #4. Super cute. I normally just keep my hair straight, or add some big waves with my curling iron. :D

P.S. I love your blogs’ name!
I think number one is everyones ideal hair day. If my hair could look like that every day I might be able to take on the world.
Hear Hear!
Just the fact that you get to experience NYfw itself is amazing.
I love the different sort of braided looks but I rarely do them because I don’t feel they stay put. So, are you going to any of the shows for NYFW?
Curling my hair is my go-to style, 20 to 30 mins tops (and I have a lot of hair!).
Alas, I will be coming to your rescue!!!
It’s all in the wrist LOL
I LOVE #5! It’s so simple! I honestly don’t do much to my hair. Just kinda brush it and then put it up if it’s being uncooperative ;)
I went there today and it was so cool.
