Tucked in French Braid


This cute, quick, and easy summer hairstyle can be created in only a few minutes and put with a fancy dress or your every day jeans and tee shirt.

    Directions:

    1. Part hair on one side.
    2. Backcomb through roots around the head. 
    3. Bring hair to the back.
    4. Pick a section of hair from both sides (left and right) as well as the middle. 
    5. French braid adding in small sections along the hair line.
    6. After you finish french braiding (once you reach the top of your neck) braid the rest of your hair regularly.
    7. Seal the braid off with a small band. 
    8. Stick your fingers under the middle of the braid (right above the beginning of the neck), you will feel a "pocket".  Pull it apart to make it a little bigger.
    9. Roll the end of your braid down a couple of inches at a time.
    10. Tuck the folded braid into the pocket.
    11. Secure with bobby pins where it is needed (if you have bangs pin those back too).

    Get The Look!: Emma Watson at the Coachella Pool Party

    At Mulberry's Coachella Pool Party Emma Watson arrived in this great summer outfit.  To get this pool side party look, it starts with a Tiger Print Romper (or any other pattern that you like).   Next, add a cute belt around your waist.  I have selected a Sparkle Plaque Belt to go with the romper in the link above.   Then, slip on a solid colored cardigan (or, if your romper is a solid color, choose a patterned cardigan that contains your romper's color in it).  If you want a black knitted cardigan like Emma's check out this link: Black Knitted Cardi.   A great pair of shoes that will go with many patterns and colors (including the tiger print romper in the link above) are these Isola 'Adriel' Flat Sandals.   To top a look like this off, add a cute sunhat (this one is like Emma's: Brown Floppy Sunhat) and a little bag to carry your phone and beauty essentials (Across Body Leather Bag).   Hope you like it!
