I know I said I would post this hair tutorial yesterday, but obviously I'm a no good liar because today is not yesterday, it's today. This hairstyle is basically the same thing as milkmaid braids, only modified to up the volume and lessen the big part in the back.

http://www.thisisglamorous.com/2010/11/holiday-hair-how-to-side-chignon.html . . . for late lunch dates and last-minute meetings, it's been mostly chic & messy topknots , and sometimes, even, a classic chignon -- but as the holiday invitations begin to pile up, something a little more sophisticated is in order for those elegant dinner parties filled with sparkling crystal champagne flutes and conversations that last long after the crème brulée has been served -- and of course, the perfect solution is the always lovely side chignon . . . {one} using a round brush, blow-dry hair smooth and straight, focusing on the top sections

http://www.refinery29.com/hunger-games-katniss-braid?page=4#slide-1 You know we couldn't let this week pass without giving you a Hunger Games how-to. With tonight's sure-to-be-insane midnight premiere of the seminal movie of our time (okay, maybe not, but it's definitely going to be a kick-ass film), we knew it was finally time to tackle "the braid." In addition to being a fictional heroine we can actually get behind , Katniss Everdeen also rocks a pretty sick hairstyle.
