Bohemian roots...for the love of middle parts and long braids. These remind me of my mom back in the 70s with her long dark hair. I will have to show you some pictures of her if I ever get a scanner.

    I've been not-so-patiently waiting for my hair to grow out for what seems like years, I can't wait to get it to that length where a messy braid or bun looks impeccably chic.

    My mom used to also part her hair down the middle and her hair was so long it touched the top of her rear end!

    I so wish I had my moms stick straight hair instead of my curls.

    Love the softness in these photos, I am especially envious of the bottom left photo with the stripe tank top and bell jeans....so perfect!

    PS - Scan pics of your mom!!!

    Thanks for the comment and wow...I am now in love with your blog! I love your style.

    As far as Chicago, I am actually outside of the city in the south suburbs. I am almost in the corn. :) We have a lot down here but it is probably a bit too far. If you ever do come this south though, I would be glad to show you around to them. For Chicago specifically, I would ask Leilani from Thriftaholic. She lives there and knows what exists now. I have been out of the city for almost 2 years, sadly.

    I cut my hair short a while ago and am now struggling to grow it back. It would take me quite a while to achieve this look! Love it!

    I LOVE alela. Last time I saw her she had really short cropped hair though, she still looked lovely.

    Do you spend some days wearing your hair in a part in Ode to your mother? ^_^

    Does she feel heart-warmed when you do?
    We're excited for scanned pictures!

    Ah, if only I could grow long hair.
