The Halo Braid

So like I promised (a week ago. Tsk  tsk), I am going to post the video tutorial
where I learned to do the HALO BRAID. It looks very intricate but once
you see the video it's quite simple really. A braid over here and
a twist over there and 50 hairpins later.. Presto! You look like
a German maid who's out to milk her cows or pick wild flowers in the
Swiss Alps. Or you could pretend to be a Grecian goddess. Your choice.

Practice with Suzi from stylesuzi.com's Halo Hair Updo Tutorial
Pretty simple! :) #Neigborhoodies
 

Check out how these celebrities donned their halo braids.
 Mary Kate (or is that Ashley?) Olsen going for that I-wore-this-braid-last-night
-and-I-just-woke-up-and-had-to-rush-to-get-to-this-red-carpet-event look.
Point is I wanna look like this. The I Could Care Less Which Way My Hair Is Going look.
But let's face it, no one can work out disheveled better than the Olsen twins.

 Amanda Seyfried donning the halo braid and looking like a good Amish farmer's daughter.
But you ain't foolin' no one, Amanda! Especially not me!
I've seen the movie Chloe and we both know you're only good in...other aspects.
But I still love you. We have the same wide-eyed stare. I can totally relate.

Oh, Sienna Miller. You can do no wrong in my eyes. 
But maybe try putting a little more color on your lips. You look
like you've seen a ghost. Speaking of ghosts, how are you? Watcha doin' nowadays?
Any movies coming up? I miss you...
