Life's a Beach

I leave for my mini vacation on Wednesday, and I cannot wait! We are heading to the Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri, and stopping in St. Louis on the way there. I have been packing and planning the past few weeks and recently thought about what easy hairstyles I could do while boating or laying on the lake. I don't want to look like a wet, sloppy dog the whole time, so I need to have a plan! Here are some cute and creative summer styles I found, I might have to try a few out tonight!


Simple Ponytail (Holly Madison)



 Floppy Hat (Gretchen Rossi)



Messy Waves - Created by sleeping with thick braids (Solange Knowles)



Front Braid - with hair up or down (Rashida Jones)



Messy Half-up Do (Alessandra Ambrosio)



High Messy Bun (Chloe Sevigny)



Sleek Bun (Jessica Biel)

Which one do you suggest?

Everyone needs a wrap-around porch...

I am in love with this coastal New England home. It is located in Boothbay Harbor, Maine and was originally a smaller cottage built circa 1915. An architect was hired in 2007 to renovate the property by rebuilding the porches and creating upper ones, updating the kitchen, and redesigning the bathrooms. They added new floors and electric throughout the cottage as well as a few other updates. All I can say is that they definitely did the house some justice! If this were a summer rental home, I would be all about it! Instead this summer we are heading somewhere a little closer to the Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri. We leave next week, and I definitely need this vacation!














































I have never been to Maine, have you?
