My lovely sister is turning 26 next week, and I have been put in charge of planning the festivities! Now when you think about turning 26 you don't think of having a BIG party. Those are usually saved for 13, 16, 18, 21, 25, 30, and ever decade there after. BUT...my sister has always helped her friends put on big parties, and this time it's her turn!

Ashley, is a graphic designer and so of course she is always on the latest trend. So for this party it is Party like a Pineapple, Flamingos are my friends, and Coachella put in a brown paper hipster bag and shaken not stirred. Of course I loved trends as well so this is going to be so fun for the both of us!

I am so excited to make the sign of a thousand posts for her party!

The tutorial will be posted this weekend..but it is going to say things like:

Slay 

All My Friends Are Models

Loose off that Goose

Tacos Tequila Tan Lines

Saucin'

Rose' All Day

You get the picture. I think she is going to love it.

For the food and drinks its going to be Pineapples all the way!

I am going to be making this gorgeous find --->click here

A bunch of us are getting together this weekend  to put some final details...I can't give it all away but I hope that this helps give any ideas to inspiring Party like a Pineapple lovers.

//HAIR LIFE//

Life is busy...like more busy than usual. I have just returned from the Seattle Fashion Focus hair show  by Cosmo Prof...the company that just added famous hairstylist, Larisa Love ( if you don't follow here on insa yet...here is your sign). 

This year was a little different than my trip last year.  I was able to hang out with an old friend and have girls night, visit Capital Hill..you know, do what the locals do. 

I was excited to be able to have some normality. 

** Warning...a picture is worth a thousand words..so this is a long picture oriented blog post..enjoy**

Last year I posted about my first time visiting Seattle  which had a bucket list of activities I wanted to check off..click on the link and see how you can do. I usually am a type of girl who likes to go go go when I am on the road. See new restaurants, go to clubs, and see what the town has to offer. This trip though was all about relaxation. This is the last of four shows I have just finished doing since March. I'm not finished yet though, in a few weeks I will be heading off to MISSISSIPPI, which should be interesting due to all of the coverage about their new law. If you don't know...click here  . 

BUT...lets do a recap of the last month! 

In March, Olivia Garden was at the IBS New York Hair Show, which I am still amazed that I get to go and even be on this amazing team.

 Lets just say  6 days there are never enough. 

My bosses are amazing, they are foodies, just like me and normally our trip consists of working and eating.. My favorite part of the trip was going to Buddakan, a five star hole in the wall.

It was an amazing experience. Placed in the Meat District, this place does not disappoint. 

Next up was the Saint Louis, MI Hair show. 

This one is a favorite because it is the first time I am seeing some of my "road friends" since last year in June for the Premier hair show in Orlando, FL which I talk about here <--!

If you are ever in Saint Louis, I suggest you going to SugarFire. It was featured on Triple D...Diners, Drive In, and Dives..This place does not disappoint! I mean come on, look at those ribs! 

I hope you have enjoyed reading..or really seeing what life is like on the road for me. Stay tuned because next post I will be sharing my next project at home...renovating a bathroom...random but fun!

Life gets messy...but here are the messes that matter.
