MESSY PONYTAILS

Smitten with these two messy ponytails. Great inspiration for me since my hair has been getting pretty long and I don't like to spend too much time on it. Then again, knowing me, I'll probably spend an hour trying to get that piecey look and top bump just right. Don't know if you noticed, but the second shot is of Jennifer Aniston- she always has amazing highlights/color.

ORANGE LIPS

LOOPED PONYTAIL | ANTONIO MARRAS F/W 2013

ph: fashionising

Spotted this looped ponytail from Antonio Marras F/W 2013 on Sea Of Shoe's instagram. My first thought was... topsy tail! Seriously, one of my favorite hair tools from the 90s. Please tell me you guys remember this! Anyway, love how chic it looks here + how easy it is to do. Perfect for those days when you don't have a lot of time, but want to do a lil something extra with your hair.
