One of my favorite things about Summer (there are A LOT), is all of the great summer styles. For me at least, my style really comes out during those warm Summer months. (It's a lot easier to think about style when you're not just trying to keep warm all Winter!)

A big part of style is hair. Depending on how you look at it, summer hair is a curse or a blessing. It can be a challenge to get/keep the hair style you want when you spend the day at the beach or on a boat. An even bigger challenge if you plan on heading right into a fun summer night immediately after.

Braids, Buns and WavesIt's all about knowing you, what you need and when you need it. For instance, finally in my twenties I know that if I keep my hair in a braid and/or bun during a day at the beach or on the boat, I can easily wear that style right into the night - or, if I'm lukcy I can let it down and it will have turned into nice Summer waves (but I never fully count on that happening). With my hair, I usually completely write-off straight hair in the Summer, unless I know I will have plenty of time to get ready - and then I still carry a hair-tie for later in the night!


Summer is all about going with the flow - and your style should reflect that!
