Rarely do I rock what I proudly call my Diana Ross hair (the Supremes were one of my favorite groups as a kid). I have naturally curly hair, and I've always believed in this rule when styling it: the bigger, the better. Of course that doesn't go for all hair styles...like the Snooki poof. But curly hair, beehives, 80's themed party hair, yes - get it as big as possible.
Mine wasn't as big as I know I could get it (it's bigger than these pictures let on), but it was satisfiable Diana hair nonetheless.
I bought this blouse last summer. Today I noticed it still had tags on it. So here is this little darling's debut. "Nice to meet y'all", she says.
Blouse: F21
Cardi: Target
Jeans: American Eagle
Heels: Seychelles via ModCloth
60's handbag via Speakeasy Vintage (Montclair, NJ)
How many of your moms used Aqua Net hairspray back in the day??? Y'all probably said, "Oh my gawd" or LOL'd. I'm probably gonna start using it again, because that shet held your hair in place for days. And I'm sure it'll give me the true D.R. hair I desire. Oh, and it's $2. Yup, I'm bringing it back.
Mikey and I are headed out for sushi before I work at Clash tonight so I'm cuttin' this short.
Cheers to a fabulous weekend, dolls.
Love,
Roni
Picture from our sushi date. I just had to come back and update my post. Look at how cute my sweetie looks in his new shirt I bought him (from ModCloth). They have great shirts for your guy, ladies.
Nice outfit! Don't you just love finding gems in your cupboard you've never worn! I moved recently, well four months ago, and I still haven't fully unpacked all of my clothes. So i've only been wearing things from one pile. God knows what I'll find when I do unpack.

Thanks, Lauren! And yes, I loove finding gems that still have the tags on them. I usually keep those unworn items next to each other, but I'd forgotten all about this one and today was such a pretty, sunny day, I had to bring it out.
DeleteHappy hunting when you unpack! :)
You are beyond cute & your posts are always so entertaining! Not only do I love your voluminous hair (so jealous, mine is as flat & thin as can be), but your outfit is fabulous as well! The blouse & shoes are both amazing :)

I used to use Rave alllll the time in high school!! Haha I bought a can of Aqua Net tonight for a buck twenty-five, it was awesome! I can't wait to have the biggest hair in Jersey. LOL!
DeleteAnd thanks, babe ♥
lol I never find things that still have tags on them. I come home, try them on, take the tags off, and then take them off. haha Nothing ever goes in with the tags on.
ReplyDeleteI never take the tags off clothes until I wear them. I try them on to make sure they fit of course, but I don't take the tags off. Just a habit :)
DeleteHahaha, it happens to me a lot too! I love your blouse! And the way you have styled it is awesome! Love you hair too! Thanks for voting me!
ReplyDeleteI bet, Francesca, you have sooo many clothes, too! Thank you and no problem, I hope you win the contest!! *fingers crossed for you*
DeleteI love your curly hair! Wheeeee!! And that's a ridiculously cute outfit. I want your wardrobe please thank you!
ReplyDeleteSpanks! I need to wear it curly more often. I just ran out of the curl product that I loved and couldn't find it anywhere. It worked the best for my hair, but I found it last Tuesday and bam! I'm back to curly hair!
DeleteYou can live in the US and share my wardrobe. I have enough for two! :)
Big hair is the best hair! Love love love the shoes and polka dot shirt! Have a fabulous weekend!
ReplyDeleteTrice, you have like the best biggest hair ever! I'm so jelly. ;)
DeleteThank you, love. Same to you ♥
Roni he's such a cutie!! Thank you for everything in this post. Aqua net, big hair, the sweet bow on that shirt, the Seychelles. The PEEKABOO TATTOO!! Lurve it.
ReplyDeleteHehe thanks, Melanie. And no problem, just bein' me :D There's plenty more tattoos where that one came from. lol OMG you say, "lurve"! Me tooo!
DeleteThe hair is awesome! You know what they say, the bigger the hair the closer to God..lol..And that outfit is so adorable! I love the polka dots! and the way the colors work with each other! You have impeccable style my friend :) .........Sorry I didn't make it with you to the party today .....my aunt STILL hasn't came over
ReplyDeleteThanks, babe. And I like that saying. :)
DeleteIt's okay, my day wasn't a bust. I had a great day so I'm happy with that. I hope you didn't use your day waiting on your aunt. We need to get together soon. I mish you!
Oh I use Aqua Net. I literally just went through a bottle, I'm not kidding. You could stand in a wind storm and that s#*t ain't movin'
ReplyDeleteHAHA! I bought my BIG bottle of Aqua Net tonight for $1.25 at Target. I'm super happy just looking at it.
DeleteThis is so cuuute, well, you are always cute :)
ReplyDelete:) thanks, Minja :)
DeleteADORGASM! You look as cute as a button. As far as the hair...I love big curly hair too. It must be the TX in you (AND me by way of my mama who is from TX). I rarely wear my hair sleek...I wear it big and curly pretty much everyday. I may rock an afro puff or a little bob but 9x out of 10 it'll be big and curly. BTW, Mikey looks like the stinkin' adorable guy version of you. You 2. I. Can't.
ReplyDeleteHA!!! You totally gave me comment-ear-to-ear-cheesy-smiles!! I love my Khalilah with all her sweetness and charm. Thanks for the nice words, love! You make me happy. :)
DeleteAnd what the heck?! I don't remember us talking about your mom being from Texas. I'm sure you might have told me too, because it seems like something that might have been brought up. That's super awesome though!! You're technically a Texan, too! Yeehaw! <--Lol, but really. I'm lovin' Khalilah with some Texas sass in her...in addition to all the other sass. :)
And thanks about Mikey! The other night the little girls upstairs asked if Mikey was my brother. I about died, LOL. They know damn well he's my husband, hahaha. But no, I get you, thank you :) I'll definitely take that as a mega compliment.
Haha. Love the D.R. hair! The Supremes are still one of my favorite groups :] That top is adorable lady - how is this the first time you are wearing it?!! I have said it a few times - but I have a crush on your closet. Cute pic of Mikey!! I need to take my man out to sushi pronto.
ReplyDeleteGirl, I have about two handfuls of clothes with tags on them in my closet right now! Only lately have I been getting really REALLY good about shopping my closet in efforts to save money (I've been doing a good job), but yeah, I just usually shop so much I don't get around to wearing what I have. LOL
DeleteThank you :))) I wish we lived closer so we could do a sushi double date.
