video how-to: scarf wrapped side ponytail

One of my goals for 2013 was to add more videos to the blog. Nearly six months into the “new year,” I’m finally posting my first one! Better late than never?

I filmed a how-to for this scarf-wrapped ponytail weeks ago, after a few of you requested a tutorial. Then I forgot about it. The clips sat untouched in iMovie for nearly a month before I stumbled across them, and pulled it all together to [finally] share it!

Have requests or ideas for other how-to videos? Please share them in the comments! {And have mercy, I’m still new to this “vlogging” business.}

reader request video: an easy scarf how-to

1 Reply

After last week’s Calm Before the Storm post, several of you asked for help on styling a scarf the way I did in that outfit. Well, ask and you shall receive! I made this quick and dirty {well, not really dirty} video to show you just how easy it is.

Have suggestions for other tips or tutorials? Leave them in the comments and I’ll see what I can do! ;-)

I’m teaming up with Anastasia Beverly Hills and The Confluence again to spread the word about Anastasia’s latest limited edition set – Wish You Were Here! – that’s available exclusively at Sephora. What better way to chat about fun new cosmetics than via a little video review, hmm?

To celebrate this cool new kit, one lucky winner will receive a round-trip ticket to Los Angeles, a two-night stay at a Los Angeles hotel, a brow appointment with Anastasia, a hair and makeup makeover featuring the Wish You Were Here! kit at the Anastasia Beverly Hills Salon, and a photo shoot with the ABH team!

Here’s what you need to do…

· Take a postcard-worthy photo of yourself in front of your favorite local landmark!

· Like Anastasia Beverly Hills on the ‘Book (www.facebook.com/AnastasiaBeauty). Then upload the aforementioned photo on Facebook, and tag Anastasia of Beverly Hills in the photo to enter.

· Not a Facebooker? Email your name, home address, and photograph to “wishyouwerehere@anastasia.net”.

· One entry per contestant only by 11:59 PM PST on February 3, 2012.

· You must be a United States citizen to enter.

Good luck!!

Need a little hump day hair inspiration? This is fast becoming my go-to style when my hair is too dirty to pass as socially acceptable and I’m short on time. It’s like my 8 year-old side pony, all grown up! {And sans neon scrunchie.}

Like the song? It’s Starry Eyed by Ellie Goulding from the album Lights.
