The Duke and Duchess Of Cambridge

I had decided that I WILL NOT do a post on the Royal Wedding, because every blogger on my feed would cover it (as they did)


Since you are reading this post, clearly I gave in.


I am so kicked that William got the title of Cambridge. 

William`s god daughter does NOT like the noise!!

HAHAH!! I love this picture, and its SO true :)

Sarah Burton adjusts her creation.

Another Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen dress.

I love the embellished belt and the angora wrap.

And she let her gorgeous hair down :)

Driving away in a Vintage Aston Martin. The 'L' is not for LOVE or anything mushy, it stands for LEARNERS PERMIT !

HYDE PARK

True DAT
And its VINTAGE CARTIER fyi.

The royally delicious cake 

Something old: The bridal gown, from Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen, featured “traditional Carrickmacross craftsmanship,” a lace technique that dates back to the 1800s.  

Something new: Her parents gifted their daughter with custom-made diamond oak-leaf earrings with a diamond-encrusted acorn set in the middle, a nod to their new family crest.

Something borrowed: Kate’s tiara, on loan from the queen herself, per royal wedding tradition, is a 1936 Cartier “halo.” 

Something blue: We can’t see it, but a blue ribbon is sewn into the interior of her dress. 

Some dresses she COULD have worn

Even though it was pretty obvious from the start that she will be wearing a British designer, if that was NOT the case I think the VALENTINO one is just fabulous, and would have been brilliant on her!

WHICH ONE DO YOU PICK?

Knots In My Hair

I randomly saw this picture somewhere and I instantly loved it! I soon figured out how to do it, and its so damn simple! It doesn`t show this nicely on jet black Indian hair but still its a nice detailed but messy little up do.


I tried doing this the day I had shampooed my hair and the silkiness works against this hairstyle. So I suggest you try this when there is some amount of buildup in your hair which provides some hold.

1. Dive your hair into two sections.
   
   
2. Tie a knot using the two sections. Just like you would with a rope or a string
   
   
3. Repeat. Tie another knot.
   
   
4. Done

I was surprised that it didn't open up. But it would be better to use some bobby pins from behind and some hair spray.

Actually I would suggest using hairspray once after you have parted your hair in two sections and then using it again once the two knots have been formed. It will provide a good amount of hold.

Don`t worry about sections sticking out, its supposed to be messy.

This hairstyle will work best on someone who doesn't have too many layers. Cos the layers ARE bound to stick out.
