Hair Pin Curls

 As women we wear so many different hats and we want to have good looking hair while carrying out those duties, right? There is nothing worse than having a fresh set of curls but only getting to wear them for a day.  How do we maintain our curls? Lets see we can roll our hair, flexi rod our hair or buy bonnets and silk scarves but sometimes these things can get expensive. If you are like me I'm always trying to save a dime and pinch a penny so I decided to pin curl my hair.

It cost me only $1 to purchase those hair pins and I loved how my curls turned out. Also, while I slept I was not bothered by rollers sticking me in my head and I could lay flat on my pillow.

Stay tuned, I will continue to bring you beauty secrets for less.

So,  I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl December 13th, 2013 and every since I been fighting to get back into my pre-pregnancy wardrobe. I know it took me nine months to gain the baby weight (35lbs) so I shouldn't be in such a rush to lose it in two months but my clothes are calling my name. I never knew how easy it could be to totally forget about yourself while caring for a newborn until the shoe was on my foot! lol I almost fell into some mom jeans and had to snap out of it real quick!
This is me on my 22nd birthday, about a week ago and I decided to pull out some cute jeans to compliment my new mom shape and show a little mid-drift. This outfit was tricky considering I just had a baby and people kept asking me "So you're going to wear your stomach out?" Gosh, its just a little drift and for 2014 I decided to dress how I feel instead of worrying about what other people think or over thinking an outfit.

My jeans were purchased from Target for only $25. I toned the outfit down by adding a scarf which I purchased from Walmart (only $5) and a cute blazer from Forever 21 that was on clearance of course. Those knee high boots were  really suppose to be thigh high but I'm still carrying around some baby weight so I pulled them up as far as I could...no shame in my game. I thought the boots looked nice to have come from Chernins, yes the $9.99 shoe store! So, to all my new and old mommies toss out those mom jeans and keep it chic on a budget.
