I am so weird in this video. Do not judge me.
Welcome to the odd commingling of personal style, grammar tips, gluten-free living, and wedding hindsight.

No blisters!? No way.
Every time we have an "outfit of the day" photoshoot, Roxy wants to be a part of it. She's licking my hand here.
So, Mother Nature backhanded me today. I was so puffy that these were the only pants I could find that fit. Wow. These jeans have a bedazzled butt, and they're from NY & Co.
Mom bought me the purple leather jacket from Kohl's :) It's Elle brand.
Oh, I love my curl cream. It's sold at Target. It's called Curls Rock. It's a cream with lotion-like consistency. I've used A LOT of curling products. This one is by far the best.
Look at my cute girls :)
Shirt is from NY & Co. (last spring), light blue tank is from Express, and belt is from Pac Sun.
(Please excuse our messy living room.)
These heels aren't a problem because they're only about an inch or so. They're Candie's brand from Kohl's. Since they're patent leather, I would recommend getting Band-Aid Friction Block to prevent blisters. I rub this stuff on anytime I wear shoes that rub, and I don't end up with blisters (seriously). Buy a few and put them in your purse/work bag. You'll be glad you did it!

Here's what it looks like. You can find it at Wal Mart or Target :)

Clipless Curling Iron
So, I love to experiment with my hair. Many people have complimented certain styles that I wear, so let me show you two videos that helped me.
I figured out the clipless curling iron on my own, but here's a great video that helps you achieve the look you want.
Okay, when I have no time to do my hair in the morning, and I'm not feeling the curly style, this is my go-to 'do. Everyone always loves it. My co-teacher calls it my YouTube hair because I always tell people, "I learned how to do it on YouTube."
Remember that YouTube is not just a site to visit for music videos. You can learn how to do all sorts of things from instructional videos on this site. Thanks to YouTube, my husband learned how to tie a double windsor knot (for his tie), tie a bow tie, and a ridiculous number of other things. I typically use it for hair tutorials.
Oh, I have no pictures of me sporting my YouTube hair, but I do have a picture of my hair after I used the clipless curling iron on it.
(P.S. That awesome quilt behind me was made by one of my talented friends, Carol.)
I bought my clipless iron at Target for $24.99. Here is the link to it on Target's site:
(NOTE: It comes with a glove, and you NEED it; otherwise, you'll burn the dickens out of your hand. Trust me.)
