It’s no secret that a sleek bun is my favorite hairstyle. In fact, it’s the opposite of a secret! It’s very rare to see me wearing my hair any other way, as I’ve now been embracing sleek buns for almost five years. Over these years, I’ve fine-tuned and perfected this hairstyle. Although many of you have requested to see my hair down more often, I rarely stray from a sleek bun because it’s the style that works for me. Today I’m excited to share more about why I love this hairstyle, a sleek hair bun tutorial, tips for perfecting this style, and outfit inspiration to wear with a sleek bun.

Why I Love a Sleek Bun

I consider my beauty and hair evolution to be just as important as my style evolution. When I first started blogging in 2010 my outfits were much different than the ones I wear today.

The start of the new year means it’s time to reflect on 2022 and think about hopes for 2023. I have to admit, I am pretty bad about this. While the new year invigorates so many, it tends to overwhelm me. This year I have decided to center on one goal for each area of my life by focusing in on one key word for each category. Simple – and hopefully effective! In the past I have focused on goals that are SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound), but decided this year to try a more broad approach with purpose.

Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a nice and relaxing long break and got to spend time with those you love. Let’s kick off the new year talking about a few winter transitional pieces that are closet classics. Fashion this time of year is so odd, while holiday plaid and NYE sparkle and shine have died down, true spring dressing feels so far away. I always use this month to take a long hard look at my closet and do some serious cleaning. In that process I also see what basics might need updating. Below are some of the everyday styles that I am excited about in the new year.

P.S. if you are heading somewhere warm and looking for some bright, colorful inspiration, head here as I have just updated my resort shop section with new picks!

This holiday, our Instagram feeds were decked with celebrity family portraits and chic seasonal cards. Oh, what joy it was seeing the various coordinated outfits in red, white, shimmery silvers and golds! By the time New Year’s Eve rolled around, there were even more eye-catching looks to feast our eyes upon, so why thought why not ring in 2023 by compiling the best of them all! Here are the top celebrity Christmas and NYE looks that closed out 2022 in old-fashion holiday style:

For Christmas, the Kardashian-Jenner sisterhood got together wearing (mostly) red and white, with a hint of silver, nude and black lace. While Kim wore silver Versace and Kourtney wore Pre-Fall 2023 Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini styled by Dani Michelle to the family Christmas Eve party, Khloe arrived in custom Nicolas Jebran and Kris wore Pre-Fall 2019 Valentino. Meanwhile, Kylie stood out in a lacy Mugler

The year of 2022 promised double the fashion, double the events and double the glamor as the entire world returned to its pre-pandemic rhythm. The trend has been all about maximalism and fully executed looks, from the clothes to the hair and makeup alike, no matter the occasion big or small.

As always, the contenders for best Outfit of the Year were determined based on social media engagement, but it’s up to you to vote and let us know who gets the number 1 spot:
