Guess What?



**NEW POSE ALERT** Slapping myself

{Wearing: Zara Blazer, J.Crew Blouse (again, get over it), American Eagle Jeans, Zara Pumps, Marc by Marc Jacobs Bag}

So, I have a mini announcement to make. It's not really an important announcement or even one that needs to be made... but I'm doing it anyways. Those of you who have been reading my blog since before November would know that I used to be blonde. Blonde (well, dark/dirty blonde) is my natural color and it's actually been a really expensive pain in the butt trying to maintain being a brunette.

With that said... *drumroll* I'm going back to blonde. Did I just blow everyone's minds or what?

You were all so kind and supportive when I went dark and some of you liked the change soooo much you told me to never ever go back to blonde. Since I didn't listen (sorry!) I am hoping you will all be just as kind and supportive when I go back. Please?

I have enjoyed my time as a Brunette but I haven't really felt like myself. I am looking forward to feeling like 'me' again.

When Bees Attack




 {Wearing: J.Crew Blouse, Asos Skirt, TopShop Pumps, Marc by Marc Jacob Bag, Fossil Watch, Anjolee Bracelet (c/o), Keltie Leanne Designs Coco Bracelet (c/o)}

 If you follow me on Instagram (missmelissa_k) then you would have seen a sneak peek from this outfit shoot last week (and if you're not following me on instagram... well... shame on you). I posted one of the photos from this shoot because I found it funny. Let me walk you through what happened.

See those lovely flowers I am standing next to? Well, they were the home to a large number of bees. Bees are the one thing in this entire world I'm not allergic to so I ignored them flying around and kept on posing for photos.

Then, I realized the buzzing had gotten really loud and there were bees in my hair.

(Disclaimer: It may have only been one bee in my hair but for the sake of this story being a little less boring, we are going to say bees. Plural. Invisible bees that are very dangerous but don't show up on film. Vampire bees perhaps. Vampires don't show up in photos do they?)

And I made this face.



And then I did what any rational, intelligent person would do when a swarm of invisible vampire bees are flying in their hair. I ducked.


I'm sure that ducking would save my life in numerous situations. But when bees, that are very capable of flying at various altitudes, attack? Yah....

...

Now, in order to make myself look smarter, I'm going to get off the computer and go do some math.

Wavy Hair Tutorial Video


Yah yah yah I'm super awkward on video. I think we all need to move past that. I'm sure there are some people who can make a perfectly not awkward hair tutorial in one take but I am not that girl.




Try not to judge the quality of the video as well. My poor little point and shoot did the best it could.

The Curling Iron I am using in the video is the Jose Eber TriBarrel. This adorable hot pink curling Iron has the same wand that I used as well if you're not in the market for a TriBarrel iron.

PS, you can receive 15% off the entire Jose Eber Website with the coupon code MELISSA15!!
