beehive, i love you so


Have I told you of my secret obsession with beehives? I love love big hair (perhaps I should have stayed in Dallas...I lived here briefly when we first arrived in the States). I probably love it so because I have fine hair and without a can of hairspray and the help of a hairstylist there is no freakin way I could ever achieve this on my own.
The only time I ever had this style was when I was visiting a salon NY...trying out hairstyles for my wedding day hair. The style I'd chosen was an updo, but the stylist first had to tease and get it all pouffy. Can I just say I had no idea my hair was capable of such texture or height??? I secretly did a happy dance in my head when I saw my bouffant.
Well, that day has long passed and I still dream of my bouff... I dream of wearing Dolce & Gabbana (circa 95), with kitten heels, and a big 'ol bouff on my head....along with cat's eye glasses to finish off the look!....A girl can dream!!
For pointers on achieving your inner beehive....go to NYTimes......

  2. What is it about the bouffant that is so appealing?! I agree Laura, I even love the word. There is something so retro...yet so modern when updated. Love.
