POP OF COLOR

How is it that the simple act of combining only 3 articles of clothing can make me so happy?  I really loved this look!  I felt a little street chic, yet comfy and me.

This was also day 3 of the top knot.  The unwashed top knot.  I promise, today I washed, dried and even curled my hair!  While it isn't hard to do, I'm usually rushing to get out the door and it's just not conducive to my morning routine.  It's a lot easier in the winter when I don't feel the need to rinse my hair in the morning.  I'll take a top knot every day of the year over the bitter cold of winter, though.

John took our (Iggy and my, of course) daily photos yesterday.  I just love this last one!

Have a great weekend, guys!

  12. *Squeals* I just watched your video interview, I can't get over the moment when I finally hear a bloggers voice, it changes everything! I'm from New Zealand, but I don't have that 'kiwi' twinge and everything sounds British in my head, but I listened to you (and Tieka as well) and I couldn't believe the sweet, syrupy, girly American voices you have! It was an excellent interview, you spoke so well and now I have an even better understanding of you, and your blog, and I just love it :)

  13. I just want you to know that your topknot inspires me... I always envision the day when my hair is long enough for a 'Kyla topknot'.

  16. I really love this look! So chic! I dig how hot pink can be super girly/sweet or it can be sophisticated like this.
