Much Ado about a Man Bun ( a Lazy weekend past )



I lounged in my bed, contemplating getting up. Making my Saturday morning trip to the Canal District farmers market. Yet , sadly this wasn't going to happen. The enticement of a delicious chocolate chip cookie and iced almond milk latte from near by Birch tree Bakery. Nothing would budge me from my cocoon of blankets. 


What does one do at that moment , you write a Facebook post telling everyone. In this way I'd find validation for this lazy state of mind. ( Don't laugh you do it to )
 I found after my in depth social media research that this not wanting to do anything seemed to be a " thing " with everyone. 

We have had a very humid past week here in the northeastern United States, I think everyone was just exhausted with being hot. My friend went for a Mani & Pedicure , this inspired me to do the same. Id get out of the house . I even picked up trash bags also, so that counts as an adult chore. 

Id feel like I did something useful with myself. While my feet were soaking in the soapy water. I decided to read some beauty articles. I decided to read Man Repeller catch up on the young hip set . I'm no longer there demographic , it's really okay I still love them. 

 I've been experimenting with my hair all Summer. After the article " Women Take Back the Man Bun " Maybe it was the fumes in the nail salon . So I decided to embark on the man bun. The women in the salon shook there heads at me , when I talked about the man bun. Even though as they mention in the article "ARE WE TAKING BACK WHAT WE PERCEIVE TO BE RIGHTFULLY OURS OR JUST, YOU KNOW, WEARING OUR HAIR HALF UP?" (Via Man Repeller ) 

I think in my case they can have the men can have the "man bun " So at least to stepped out of my comfort zone. I also tried to dress French . 

Well that looked wrong on so many levels. As I though I'm American with a love of British culture. That's kinda how I'd describe my style . So there you have it a post about nothing extrodinary. A small step out of the comfort zone.
