Natural Hair: Curly Updo & Tall Glam Fashion Look

Yay!  I finally figured out how to use Photogrid!  #learningnewthings  #celebratesmallvictories

LOL!  Ok, earlier this month my church had a Valentine's Event that I attended.  I was most excited about the fact that with my godmother's help I was able to put this entire outfit together with items I already had in my closet.  #WIN!

My Hair

An updo created from a 5 day twist out using Entwine Couture's Creme Jelly Styler.  I specifically used this styler knowing that I was going to create this twist out later in the week.  I used Ms.VaughnTV's convertible updo tutorial as inspiration for this style. 

On the 5th day, I sectioned off the back and sculpted it into a textured french roll.

 Then I sectioned off the front, moisturized with water & oil, & set on flexirods for the day.  After it was dry, I took out the flexirods, separated the twists, and pinned & styled my curls into this cute style.

 Dress - Ralph Lauren
Shoes - Paris Hilton
Accessories - Old

I really appreciate my godmother for suggesting that I pair this eggplant dress with red accessories.  It was a different look but looked great together!  Side note:  I love being tall.  I stand a full 6'1 tall flat but I wore 4 inch heels that night.  People always ask me why I wear heels when I'm already tall.  See how the heels make my legs look?  Yep, that's why! Plus, these shoes just make this outfit look hott!  #tallglam

 So what do you think of my look?  What is your go to style for a fancy evening out?
