Favorite shirt right now. Whatcha think?
I’m going to post it on lookbook.nu I think. The shirt is h&m, so is the skirt, the tights are Target…and the sweater I’m not really positive I got it for a birthday present from my cousin, and the belt is forlove 21. mish.  I’ve been looking at industry magazines, videos and all sorts of media on this subject and have come to a conclusion: messy hair is in this season!!! Natural, disheveled, organic, romantic, untidy hair!!! So many designers are showing these styles on the runway this season and it’s absolutely beautiful.
above (Organic by John Patrick) Fluffed up and loosely pinned up…kind of an old school Elain Benes huh?
above (Alexander Wang) This is classic and really pretty, this side braid is loosened up and the bangs are left out and messy then pinned to the side.
above (Lanvin) The messy bun that everyones been talking about, tease that pony tail up as much as possible and twist it high on top of your head. Then there’s the Marc by Marc Jacobs style (below) with the big head wrap bow…they leave the fuzzy teased bang out.
This is Chloe…this style is simple and natural and undone. For this i would use anti frizz or humidity products, finger dry and use a curling iron by wrapping pieces around the barrel. You want a very loose wave (not a curl.) These styles are real life and can be worn on a daily basis. I LOVE them. We’re so used to sleek, polished hair that we try so hard to achieve those looks. I think it’s amazing that we’re pulling away from that a little. There’s still thought to these looks and effort, but I’m into the fact that you don’t have to try and be perfect with these styles. If a mistake happens it’s likely to work with the messy look. What do you think? Would you try these out? Let us know!! mish<3 So as you all heard, Sami and I went to New York this weekend. My trip was business but I still had the best time. The International Beauty Show was held at the Jacob Javits Convention Center, which was a beautiful space! Day one was full of classes and learning. I saw new techniques for color, cutting, styling and bridal make up. These people are my professional idols! I saw Nick Arrojo and his team work on classic hair cutting techniques and talk about our industry. I watched Eve Pearl, a 5 time emmy award winning make up artist. Her class was awesome! I watched her do Hi Definition makeup on two women of different races, amazing! I got such great insight from her about the business. So of course after that I went to her booth and bought some product. Pretty great, I wore it the next day. Day two was full of more educational classes. First I went to Martin Parsons up styling class. He was unreal and I loved him so much!!! (Sara and I later got our picture taken with him!!!) Then we went shopping!!!! We looked at trade books, beauty supplies, smocks, make up, tools…pretty much everything! I got a new pair of shears! I can’t wait to use them at work! Then it was back to class. The last class of the day was Jon Gonazales. His class was about personal growth as a hairdresser and how to enhance your career. It was life changing. He was so inspiring uplifting. It really made me look at my career and start to realize the path that I had to take for success. Any one who is in the industry has to go next year! It was the most amazing city and beauty is all around there. <3mish
Saturday was my birthday party at La Boca! It was so so so much fun! We got there at around 8 o’ clock, and since I didn’t make reservations, we ended up waiting a little while to eat. But when we finally did it was awesome. Sami and I split chicken fajitas and shortly after that followed my Hello Kitty birthday cake and mini cupcakes!!! Courtesy of Sami and Suzi. (These girls are freakin’ talented!)

I re-fell in love with this nail polish this week when I got my nails done. It’s the perfect matte Barbie-pink. Not too bright..not too dull. Perfect!!! It’s OPI Strawberry Marguerita. It seemed like the best color to go with for my birthday weekend (since pink is my favorite.)
The Conscious Cook By Tal Ronnen. My boss at the salon saw this book on Oprah and got it for me for my birthday! I have this strange obsession with vegan/vegetarian food even though I currently eat meat. This book has “delicious recipes that will change the way you eat”. His goal was to come up with vegan food just as satisfying as carnivorous dishes. I can’t wait to try some of these recipes!!!! I’ll let you guys know when I do!
And last but not least… I’m OBSESSED with Starbucks Chai Tea Lattes! Try one. I can’t explain it… <3 mish |
