Last weekend like this weekend and every single day it seems lately, I was super busy and had only a few minutes to get ready by the time I got time to even start. Forget about washing my hair – takes too long and I hadn’t the foresight to start hot mom hair the night before. So while I did my 5-minute make-up, I watched a You Tube hair tutorial on my phone because multitasking is my middle name. My criteria for the video were a) 3 minutes or under, and b) first one that met criterion a. I followed the tutorial then followed one of Redbook’s outfit formulas et voila!
With my hair pulled fully back, I felt a little like I should be in a robe and slippers, but I just put on some bright lipstick to draw the eye down from my forehead wrinkles and went forth with attitude. Here was my inspiration:
I think I nailed it! It is a more classic look, especially compared to #mixnotmatch month but who says you have to stick to one style all the time?! Plus it was a nice backdrop to a scarf that recently followed me home…

I wore a top knot on my blog and quite liked it and I ain’t 22 nor am I a ballerina. 😉 I’d still wear one but my new do is too short for it. You can check my top knot out here: http://clothesbutnotquite.com/this-that-thursdays/purrfection-feline-fall-fashion/
Yup. I regularly wear a top knot. And nope, I’m not 22 or a ballerina, either! I think it looks good on you. Plus sometimes, they are just so handy! I think it suits that outfit, too – it’s a classy, clean look. And I also love that scarf. 🙂
Yep, I sport the top knot quite often as well, and again, neither 22 nor a ballerina! Love the outfit!
I think you look great!
