How to Accomplish an Effortless Summer Look (No Blowdryer Required!)

The looks for spring/summer 2014 are something to get really excited about! Crop tops, palazzo pants, graphic & floral prints, fringe, and sheer/lace overlays are just a few of the must-haves that are already in stock at Heylee B. One of our major favorites is this amazing Bohemian 3/4-length ivory skirt with floor-length lace detail overlay. Not only will it keep you cool as the temps rise, you will definitely be turning heads with such a trendy statement! (Click here to add it to your closet!)

But, we all know that having the right article of clothing is only half the battle to looking fabulous in 2014. With the inevitable rise in temperatures, we are bound to want to refer to the age-old trend of ponytails and buns to keep our necks cool. But we think we can take your look up a notch or two by giving you a chic and effortless look in just a few minutes...and you won't even have to break out your blow dryer!

STEP 1:Give hair a good tousle for volume. 

**For already-washed hair, add a little dry shampoo or dry hairspray to add volume as well

STEP 2: Take a favorite embellished headband (preferably with elastic) and pull over the crown of your head, leaving a small "pouf" in your hair.

**Check out our new embellished headbands here!

STEP 2: Begin to wrap hair up and around the elastic part of the headband, leaving down the sides. (You will do those sections last)

Tuck in stray pieces so that they form a sort of curl around, hiding the elastic. You want to keep hair loose around the elastic, because making it too tight won't give you the right look. The goal is, again, effortless.

STEP 4: Take the side pieces that you left untucked and section them out, wrapping and tucking them in to the back.

STEP 5: Tuck in any stray pieces and spray with a dry hairspray for hold. 

What's so great about this 'do? Dress it up or dress it down, you'll look and feel amazing! Also, be sure to go to Heylee B to find more clothes to go along with this look, as some cute headbands for your hair! With a look like this, there's no doubt that you will spend your spring & summer turning heads in all the right ways!
