Lily was the picture of a little ballerina at her recital yesterday.

And the bun? Kicked every other bun’s ass.

OMG that was the perfect bun! Why did you ever doubt yourself?

And, I loved that tutorial. I love it when every simple step is explained. I am a moron like that, where I would ask, ‘WAIT Am I supposed to twist is to the LEFT or to the RIGHT????” :-)

OK, first of all, LOVE your blog. This is my first visit here. I also wanted to come see who was giving you such trouble last night. Awwww. What a beautiful girl! How is it possible that such sweet little packages can come out with some demanding and defying attitudes? My 2.5 yr old princess is beginning to exert her girl attitude. Fun stuff. I’m bookmarking your site. I will be back! Have a great day~~

22 Charmed May 13, 2009 at 9:29 am

I myself am a big fan of the bun…at 39. I love it, easy and very flattering.
