"Max, pick out a bow!"

Happy Holidays Everyone!

We hope that all of you have been enjoying this wonderful holiday season! With Christmas less than 24 hours away, we here at Young and Chic knew that we absolutely had to do a festive post, and quote the Grinch in our title! Today's FASHION FIXATION du jour takes a look at cute holiday hairstyles tied up with a BOW!

We're sure that you all have had your Christmas outfits picked out for days now, but what should you do with your locks for this joyous occasion? We suggest saving some of that wrapping ribbon for yourself! Start with curling your hair: using a styling wand or curling iron (whichever way works for you). Then, pick up a small section of hair at the top of your head and gather it to the back to secure with a small elastic. Then, thread the ribbon (we used a 1" thick ivory satin ribbon, about 12" long) through the elastic once, wrap the ribbon around the entire elastic one time, and tie into a bow! Voila!

To put your own creative spin on this, choose a different color (red or green perhaps??) or maybe try braiding a section of your hair to secure with a bow. Whatever way you choose, just make sure that your bow is tied tight to ensure that you don't lose that ribbon at some point throughout the night!

All of us here at Lifestyles of the Young and Chic wish you and yours a happy and healthy Holiday Season and New Year! We hope that you find someone special under the mistletoe, that Santa brings you everything on your wish list, that all 8 days of Hanukkah are magical, and that you are all successful in keeping any and all New Years Resolutions!

Stay Flawless and Fabulous!
Love,
Lyndsey and Jenn :)
