Here's a short video of my sister-in-law's wedding from last week. Even at 36 weeks pregnant, I was honored to do her hair and be a bridesmaid in the wedding. The video was shot by my friend TJ at Studio 309 Productions.

Trend Alert!!!
Top knots have been a favorite on fashion-week catwalks, with celebrities and around town.



The first image is from Catherine Malandrino’s most recent fall show where lead stylist Odile piled the models’ hair into curly, highly-textured buns.

The next one, while I feel is a little severe, still works as a decent top knot at the Marc Jacobs spring show.

Now Hollywood’s leading ladies are rocking modern, chic versions of the top knot to complement their sassy summer wardrobe of sleek minis, cropped jackets and smart shorts.

Recently, Vanessa Hudgens (pictured far right) wore my favorite version at a red carpet event. Her dark locks were pulled up into a perfectly imperfect knot with a few face-framing strands left free. This sexy summer style can surely take the heat—making it perfect for beachfront weddings or all-night raves. I've been starting to see it around town and will be interested in how this fun, summer time updo transitions to the fall! :)

Roman's Fracture

While on my drive home from the salon, I called Christopher and he hands the phone to Roman saying "Tell Momma where we are."

A sweet little voice yells into the phone,

"At the doctor!"

I thought I didn't hear him right but soon found out that while I was at work, Roman went a little too fast down his slide. He twisted his ankle and fractured his foot.

After a few X-Rays at the Urgent Care, the doctor said he probably sprained his ankle, so they wrapped it up and sent him home.

We didn't even know that it was a fracture until a day and half later. What bad parents! Looking back, it should have been pretty obvious considering the kid usually won't sit still and this time he never wanted to leave the couch!

But look, he's not in bad spirits at all.

He was even kind of proud to have his 'Cat-Boot' which is what he called his Cast and Boot. And we're pretty stoked that we were able to add a special wrap that allows him to get wet, swim, bathe so we won't be slowed down too much this summer. :)

I've shamelessly posted a video because he's just too adorable. Pictures can't contain it. Especially when you hear his sweet voice!




And with it only being couple months from Baby #2's arrival, it's kinda nice to have a child I can keep up with. We'll be spending a lot of time on the couch over the next few of weeks.

Speaking of that, Daddy got Roman a few stickers to put on his cast but he decided to share them with 'little brother' instead. What a sweetie!

My little fractured man, I hope you get better soon!
