Summer officially started yesterday and I am feeling it already! It’s been 100 degrees outside everyday for the past week which is crazy for NC. Normally I would be okay with this because I can just hang out inside, but our air conditioner decided to go out on the first day of record highs. When it got up to the 80’s inside our apartment, I have to admit that I went into extreme “hangriness”. And not the hungry/angry, but even worse…hot/angry. To turn my attitude around, I threw on this light summer dress and went out on the town with my hubby. If we were going to be hot whether we were inside or outside, I figured we might as well do something fun together.

My hair is so long and thick I had to throw it on top of my head somehow to keep me cool! I went with a crown braid and a top knot with the hair that was left over. I started at one ear and did a dutch crown braid to the other ear, then just took the end of the braid and secured it in a circle around my head with bobby pins. Super simple and easy for a summer day!
