Style, by Mary

Hi! I'm Mary Rambin, designer of Moe Bags. I'll share my style, essential tips, and you make it your own. Here's my take on fashion and how it relates to life. Fashion is not life. it just makes it more fun. (I post most of my entries as they happen via my iPhone, making it difficult to always have perfect grammar and spelling for several reasons. Also, like most people in my generation, I rely on Spell Check. I can't spell for shit. If you can't tolerate that, my apologies.) To learn more about my handbags, visit www.MoeBags.com. Anything you want to know...email me your questions at moedesigns@aol.com. My Twitter is MaryRambin.

You’ve seen it all over the red carpet, now you try the loose bun.  Instead of pulling all of your hair back, let the front hang loose.  So it’s like you have a thin bob.  Note: You can only do this with layered hair.
Here’s how you do it:

Gather hair without pulling back front strands.
Wrap hair in a bun shape at the base of your hairline.
Use a rubber band to tie back.
Pull hair out of rubber band a little so it’s a funky bun.
Use bobby pins to pin up loose hairs.  Also, you can reconstruct bun to cover rubber band.  This is hard to explain, just play around until you get a shape you like.
Lots of REGULAR hold or FLEXIBLE hold hairspray.  If you use anything stronger, your hair won’t move naturally, and you’ll have a helmet head.

Tip: THE BUN DOESN’T HAVE TO BE PERFECT.
An easy solution for a bad hair day.
