Vintage Hairstyling Challenge - Day 4

We're up to day 4 now, and todays word is FLORAL. Or flowers. Show me your take on it!

Todays rules and tools;

1. 6 hairclips OR bobby pins OR small decorations
2. 2 large hair decorations
3. Brushes and combs, as required


Well today it's my turn to be something of a let-down. Due to circumstances beyond anyone's control, I ended up being sans trusty photo-taking friend (oldmate) so had to do a few dodgy photos by myself. On top of that I had heaps of work to do, so not much time for a fancy hairstyle.



This is a fabric close-up of another 70s dress I've been wanting to show for a while. It's a sensuous cotton halter-neck wrap dress with a fab bright hibiscus print and I'll be able to wear it in summer and winter.



For my hairstyle, I did a pin curl at each front side and left those in for a couple of hours. My hair curls and holds a style so well that it needed no hairspray, nothing at all, to give me this look.


Apologies for the terrible pic, normal service will resume tomorrow!



I used 2 bobby pins for the pincurls and the rest to pin back the sides. I then put a big black flower, which is really a brooch, on one side.    Et voila! I feel rather Hawaiian now!
