Girl Crush: Sama and Haya Abu Khadra

They're the daughters of Ruia Abu Khadra founder of the Art of Living boutique. They from Saudi Arabia, live in Dubai, and are my second favorite set of twins ever (the Olsen twins get that top spot).
Do these girls know they exist?




It's like they're asking me to  be obsessed with them.

DIY for the Incredibly Unskilled: Heatless curls

I've done heatless curls before so I decided do an easy peasy (and first!) DIY for the incredibly unskilled. All you have to do is section your hair when damp into mini buns all around your head. I suggest just doing three buns at the base of your neck. They end up really soft that way. If you do a bunch of buns (like pictured) your hair will end up pretty big and frizzy (at least my hair did). I'm all for the bigger the hair the closer to heaven style but I prefer my low buns better. Anyway, here's a picture of me making a duck face (pato face for you miamians ;P) with my heatless curls.

Much love
