Hey Guys! I am so late in sharing this style :( but better than never sharing right?! Right! :) So here is how Jordyn wore her hair for Thanksgiving day. I wanted something sort of fancy but something that didn't take too long to do, I came up with this number. I started by parting her hair horizontally from ear to ear and the back half I had four separate ponytails that connected upwards to the crown of her head. For the top half of the head I did a free style flat twist design and then I did a simple two strand twist for all the loose hair remaining, added a few sponge rollers to curl the ends and that's it!  After a few hours (probably around 3) I took the sponge rollers out and undid the two strand twists for a twist out :)   This style lasted us a week and I used our Blended Beauty products to achieve the look. Enjoy! … [Read more...]

Hey Guys, I recently had a girls day out with my mom and we had lunch and were going to check out a movie, we had a little time to spare so we drove around to see what we could find to entertain ourselves until our movie started. We were in a different city so we weren't sure what was around but to our luck we stumbled across a Kmart which worked out great because my mom had some household items to grab and I remember I had a $15 gift card courtesy of Smiley360 Boy was I in for a treat! Kmart's Holiday selection was huge and amazing, they offer affordable, stylish decorating and entertaining merchandise. With a wide selection of ornaments, lights, trees, outdoor décor, and special collections from Sandra Lee and Jaclyn Smith you can't go wrong!
