    Default Need a hairstyle for my fancy date tonight. Help a sister out!

    Everyone was so helpful when I was doing my week with no buns last week, I thought I'd ask for your expertise again.

    Boyfriend and I are celebrating an anniversary tonight. We are having fancy dinner, then going out on a short cruise on Lake Michigan.

    I'm wearing a black and white dress with red belt, and planning on wearing this headband:


    Note: I now have straight across/blunt bangs (that are getting a little long) and no nose ring.

    In exchange for assisting me, I promise to post pictures :P

    Knit, love, sign.

    I think that headband would look adorable with a bun, or even a low side-bun. Since your hair is wavy, you may even be able to do the wave pin-up bun, where you twist and bobby-pin separate pieces of hair below the ear to make a curly/wavy bun. Or, you could always simply do a sock-bun, and pull some strands loose around your face . Either way, I'm feeling bun. There's a bazillion good bun tutorials on YouTube.

    ETA: Here's a good tutorial for a sidebun. Notice the accent flower, except yours would be on top, not on the bun .

    ETA2: You do not have to tease/hairspray as she does. I've done it without .

    Thank you! I went with a high sock bun. I'm pretty happy with how it looks, nice and classy. Pics to come!

    Really cute! Love the hair, but you have the most perfect skin I've ever seen. Green with envy
    Currently at BSL, trying to get to waist, if possible, by January 2015. I may lose my mind and cut it off though.
