the top knot.

Last year when I found out about "the top knot," I was so sad that I'd just cut off my long locks! So much for doing that for a while...well, the time has come! One year later & I can finally pull it off.

Well, I cheated a little bit with the help of a sock. Wait, what? Seriously. I used a sock in my hair! You can check out the tutorial here. Here is what mine looked like:

the sock bun/top knot look.
Another view of what it looks like...and my fabulous roommates :)

I'm pretty tempted to do this hairstyle tomorrow too. It's so quick. And I love it. Plus, some people had to take a second glance at me today because I very, very rarely wear my hair up. It's a nice change! 

What's your favorite go-to hairstyle? This might be mine...

my usual go to hairstyle is pulled back in a ponytail where the hair isn't pulled all the way through. it's lazy.
but this morning i tried your sock bun technique. i love it. makes me feel more polished than i actually am. especially because it's noon and i'm still in my yoga pants and tank top that i slept in. but at least my hair looks nice. :)
