summer braids


My daughter swims everyday and when I pick her up from swim practice, she usually sports a new braid.  This one is called the "Katniss Everdeen" braid from Hunger Games.  Sorry for the dark and mysterious photo.  I keep spotting braids everywhere from accessories to home decor.  Do you love summer braids and how a movie can inspire a new do?

Your post is taking me back to summer swim lessons and my mother braiding my hair every day. Love your daughter's braid, perfect for a hot summer day! XO

That is a neat braid! Your daughter has such gorgeous hair! I'll have to learn that one. The other one I like is the mermaid braid -- has she ever done that? I can do French braids, and get asked a lot to do those for my friend's daughters and my son's girlfriend (who now knows how to do it herself). I actually think it is much easier to do my own hair than someone else's, but I just cut it today, and probably is not long enough to do anything more than a French braid, for now...

Oh, happy memories of french braiding my daughter's hair! Braids are wonderful. I had long braids until I was about 14. Have a wonderful happy summer with your gorgeous daughter.

This is the summer of the braid, reinvented!
The movie has had such an impact this year.
