The Most Underrated Summer Accessory featuring Irresistible Me

 June is a month for graduations and it is also the start of wedding season.  Whenever you’re involved in a wedding or are a guest, you spend a good amount of time picking out what you’re going to wear and how you’re going to accessorize it.  Recently, I came across Irresistible Me, a company known for their hair extensions, but they also make hair accessories.

This was my favorite out of the four. I loved how the pearls were mixed in to create the perfect classic flower pattern. One of the biggest problems with headpieces is usually the quality being low, but this one was made great and it would survive the night.

This was my second favorite; it had the same style as the Rhea headband, but was a little more subtle.  This headband would be perfect for a summer party or a casual summer wedding.  Floral is one of my favorite prints to wear this summer, and this headband is the perfect match to your summer floral.

In my opinion, this headband is perfect for a formal event in the winter.  Many spring and summer events are held outside.  With this headband, you have to have lighting to get it’s full potential, which you can only get from artificial light.

This is a fun headband to say the least.  It is perfect for the guest of honor, or if you feel like drawing a little attention to your outfit.

5 Wedding Hairstyles That Everyone Will Remeber

I have a very bad love-hate relationship with my hair.  I love that it's finally at the point where I can do something with it because it is long enough, but I hate it because of all the damage from dying my hair.  Here are a couple of hairstyles that are nice and easy and can be done with pretty much every hair type.

1. Fancy Headband

A fancy, sparkly headband is the perfect complement to an end of summer wedding.  Summer is hot, especially in August.  Sometimes you want to wear that sparkly detailed dress, but the ugly truth is that dress is going to be hot when you're dancing to "Moves Like Jagger."  This is a simple fix.  Put your hair in a low bun and find a cute head band at TJ Maxx.  

2. Messy Braided Bun

The most important thing about summer hairstyles is that you want them away from your forehead and your neck.  I love this style because you get a great look from every angle.  

3. Side Pony tail

The best thing about a side ponytail is it leaves the option open to wear a fancy Kentucky derby hat!  My advice is to curl your hair before you put it in the ponytail.  It will add volume to your hair and hair spray will also help it stay in place.  

4. High Bun

The easiest style out of all of these also looks the most high fashion.  It's a classic sock bun!  It's an easy way to keep your hair looking great all day.  

5. Keep it down

Just because it's hot, doesn't mean that you can't run out the house with just brushing your hair and still look amazing.

Halloween Costume Ideas

I think Halloween is fucking amazing.  Sorry pardon my french.  But what other day of the year do you have to dress like a completely different person without any judgement?  My advice for everyone on Halloween is be something you wouldn't ever do and get out of your comfort zone.  Most importantly have fun and be safe.

Black Swan
Even though this movie is a few years old I think this a a great pop culture costume.  Actually it's what my friend and I are being for Halloween.  If you have a friend one of you can be white swan and the other can be the evil black swan.  This costume is fairly easy to do the only thing I have to say it can be expensive.  I believe my friend bought all the stuff she needed (tutu, corset, feathers, tights, spandex) for 35 and I bought mine exempt in white for 50.  



Amy Winehouse
I never knew deceased celebrity costumes where so popular but this on I like because it is not over done and everyone will know who you are.  This one would be super easy If you ave dark brown hair but you could always wear a wig.  Some leather pants which you could probably get cheap at tj maxx a tank and some fake tattoos.  


Eagle
I like this costume because I don't think I've ever been trick or treating and ran into an Eagle.  Also the more you put into it the better it looks.  I really like this costume because it will look great in fall and masks always add a bit of mystery to an outfit.  
(sorry all the diy videos where about Mascots)

Burton's Doll
I think a doll is a perfect Halloween costume for someone for a party.  The thing is I think Halloween should always about having the perfect mix of sexy and scary.  A doll is perfect for that because you look creepy but also gorgeous at the same time.  


Skeleton Body Suit
I love skeletons! It possibly could be that my two older brothers where both skeletons and I never got to be one but I always thought they where the most underrated costume.  Like you get to wear a body suit to show off your body, who wouldn't want to do that? I know black milk has this exact body suite  but you could also find a cheaper one on amazon. (It's where I get all my replica black milk leggings)

Fortune Teller
So this one was a little American Horror story Freak Show inspired.  The reason I really like this outfit and can not wait until I'm older and can pull this off while I'm drinking my fine champaign.  For this outfit I would go to thrift stores because you're bound to find a vintage lace dress and some creepy crystal ball.
