The Best School Hairstyle Ever

Today is a very sad day for all Australian students. Today, Tuesday the 28th of January, marks the last day of summer holidays. Today marks the last of endless weekdays spent in the sunshine. Tomorrow its back to timetables, early mornings, classes, teachers, packed lunches, and another thing. Tomorrow I have to tie my hair up for school, which I really do not like doing. So, today I thought I'd share in my opinion, the best school hairstyle.

This is of course the messy bun. The perfect combination of work and play. With so many ways to make it your own, a messy bun will even fit into the 28 seconds you have left to do your hair!

On a bit of a side note, my hair is obviously ridiculously curly. A bit has to happen before I even start doing anything with it. For those of you with curls, here's what I do: Have a shower in the morning, condition your hair with a moisturising conditioner, and wash it all out. Next, comb your hair with an afro comb under the shower. Before drying your hair, I rub through 'Paul Mitchell, The Conditioner'. This is one of the most fabulous products ever. Finally, Just twirl your hair around your fingers in that flirty way you have already mastered :) Now, for the messy bun.

 First, brush out your hair and tie it into a pony tail. The easiest way to do this is to bend over, and let your hair fall down around your stomach. Rake your hair through it, and tie it into a pony tail. I prefer a high style, but doing it low works too for a more professional style.

 Next, hook your first two fingers under your elastic, stretching it out a little.

Pull your pony tail back through the elastic, just over 3/4 of the way.

Now it's time to get messy with your messy bun! Twist it around and pull a few bits out around your face until you get it how you like it.f your feeling a little creative, leave a piece of your hair out of your messy bun, and plait it around the base of your finished style.

Ribbon is also a cute touch, you'll find one in you school colours in most $2 shops. 

Thats my School Hair Tutorial all about done, so have fun playing around with that. I hope everyone has a really great first day of school! Remember - Chins up, Smiles on. -Effie Trinket.

Eumundi Markets

As you may or may not know, I'm in a small town in Queensland at the moment, which brings with it good and bad things. The bad thing is I dont have any reception, so appologies for the lack of updates for the next little while. The good thing is last saturday my family and I took a drive down to the Eumundi Markets.

The Eumundi markets are located in the town on Eumundi (pronounced YOU-MUN-DEE), a short drive from Noosa. The Eumundi markets are like an all-you-can-buy buffet of every wonderful thing you can possibly think of (except a unicorn. sorry.) There is such an array of stalls, from food, to massages, but naturally the fashion stalls are my favourite. I just adore the unique-ness of small market designers!

If you are thinking of heading to the markets, here are a few tips.
- Go EARLY. Most stalls open by 7am, so if you're keen, be there at 7. It gets ridiculously hot and crowded later in the day.
-Water/Hat/Sunscreen. I probably sound like your mum, but it gets really hot in Eumundi during the day.
-Park in the School. The school is a block behind the main road. Parking is $5, you can stay as long as you want, and its as close as you're going to get to the markets.

Happy Market Shopping
