I Fly Like Paper

I've talked about wanting to learn how to fly an airplane, but there's actually one type of plane I can already glide across the sky-- the kind with wings made of paper. While folding a paper plane takes some skill, sending a well-made one soaring across a room requires little or no training. The flights may not always be long nor the landings always pretty, but watching the thin paper momentarily suspended in air always seems just a bit magical.

2010 Hairstyle Trends for Women

Some of the best short haircuts are Agness Deyn and Katie Holmes short haircuts. However, if you want a short hair that slightly differs from the popular fashion trends, there are other famous ladies that can help with this.

First of all, Dido, a well known British singer that collaborated with the likes of Eminem had a lovely short cut. She had rather thin hair so she opted for layers at the ends of the style and light feathery bangs that were worn both straight down and swept to the side to achieve a variety of different looks for various occasions.

Agyness Deyn was another beautiful woman that put a funkier touch to the usual short hair having it worn really short at the back but still long enough at the front to be able to style it. Peaches Geldoff had her look practically the same as this but worn slightly longer which may appeal to more people.

Cute Hairstyles for Round Faces Women

Your face shape is the first thing to consider when you first choose a style or are considering a change. While the oval shaped face is considered ideal, there are still plenty of haircuts
for round faces as well as other shapes, each type with its own best features.The first thing a woman with a round face should look for is a haircut that accents length more than width. In other words, you want to stay away from haircuts that make your face appear wider, such as the short, classic bob cut to ear length. Any hairstyle that draws attention to the widest part of your faces is a definite no-no.




Depending on the texture of your hair, you may need to make use of styling products that add volume and shine to get the maximum mileage from the haircuts for round faces that you choose. Wearing your hair at jaw line length draws the eye down your face and is full at the crown creates a lovely frame.

Layered haircuts can work wonders in giving your face the illusion of narrowness that you seek. The more height you add at the crown the more it will detract from the roundness of your face. For women with shoulder length, curly hair, selecting haircuts for round faces is a bit easier: the length focuses attention on where your hair ends detracts from the roundness of your face. For special occasions you can pull the hair away from the face into a lovely up-do.

Short Black Hair Styles

African-American and black hair is unique in its texture, fragility and moisture content, and all of these things must be considered when choosing a hairstyle. When looking for one suitable for short hair, it's also important to choose a style that won't be difficult to maintain and that will complement the shape of your face.Get highlights or lowlights to bring out the short hairstyle. The right colors to choose depends on your natural skin tone. For a lighter skin tone, you can go with really blonde highlights; or have blonde hair with chestnut brown lowlights. Either of the colors will make the short hairstyle look fuller and more elegant.Medium skin tones can get away with darker blonde highlights and lowlights. Light or sandy brown hair is also fitting. The best color combination for medium--toned black women would be medium brown hair with dusty blonde highlights.Dark-skinned black women have to be careful with color and short hairstyles. On one hand, color can make the dark skin glow and bring out the short style. On the other hand, if color is too light it can take away from the beauty of the short style where only the color is noticeable in a negative way. Go with a dark primary color, like black or chocolate brown. Add reddish or sandy brown highlights to lighten the face and eye color.

Taking Flight

A number of years ago, E spotted a chrome model airplane he liked and wanted for our home, but we didn't leave the store with it that day. The next time we returned, I saw the disappointment on E's face as he realized the airplane was gone. He searched for one online to no avail and before long the plane went unmentioned.

Months later and a few weeks before Christmas, in a moment of good fortune, I happened upon the silver airplane E had desired; that time, I made sure it left the store in my hands.

I am terrible with surprises, and although I desperately wanted to give it to E the moment I got home, I did manage to hold off until Christmas; E's excitement and disbelief when he realized what he was holding made it worth keeping the secret those few weeks.

While one airplane in a home may be enough, I can't help but covet some of these representations, models, and items made from parts of airplanes.

Now Boarding

I am completely taken with these vintage airplane boarding passes and luggage tags found at Great Scott Vintage. I love the colors, the fonts, and that they appear to be interesting and unique reminders of the companies they represented, indications of a different era in passenger flight and a stark contrast to the often bland bar-coded or print-at-home boarding passes of today.



Here, here, and here.

Fly Me to the Moon

My blogging break has been longer than I intended, although it's gone so quickly! I can't say that things have slowed down for me, nor does it feel like I actually did much "catching up," but I've missed being here and am excited to be back.

I've mentioned before my desire to learn how to fly, so it might not be too surprising that I am excited to see the movie Amelia once it hits theaters this weekend. With flight on my mind, I will be taking a look at planes over the coming days, and because it's Wednesday, I'm starting with these gorgeous wedding-related airfield photos.
