summer hair

I am in a major hairdo rut... My hair has gotten incredibly long and I don't really know what to do with it anymore. When I actually get around to styling it I do long, loose waves and it looks great. But let's be real here, it's summer and I'm not really in the mood to mess with my hair. Every so often I dream about chopping it all off but the look of panic on Kiwi's face gives me pause. So I need some tips! What's your secret to easy, chic, summer hair?

to pin or not to pin?

I have been considering jumping on the Pinterest bandwagon for quite a while now... but I keep wondering if I really need another outlet for wandering {wasting time on} the internets. I can already tell that it is going to be seriously addicting. So tell me, do you pin?

movie night: al fresco

Someday when Kiwi and I have a yard and not just a balcony, this is how I would like to spend my summer evenings. The twinkling lights, the comfy cushions and a big bowl of popcorn.... Now that's what I call a movie night!
