pin to present: sock bun

Last week one of the #StyleMeMay prompts was to try a new hairstyle - so I thought I'd better finally get around to attempting something off my hairstyles to do board: the sock bun. My hair's barely long enough, I think. Or maybe I just need more practice hiding the sock in there. Either way, I'm going to keep working on it - I'm not very good with hairdos, but it's handy to have something in my hot summer day arsenal besides the ponytail! Plus it feels a little fancy...

  4. Oh my goodness, is this a series on pinning something and actually doing it?! I love the idea! I have yet to actually do anything with my pins...

  5. You look very pretty with your hair pulled up! I like the pin with a scarf around the bun! I need to try that!
