I think you’d suit a loose updo [something like this](http://hairstyletwist.com/blog/2008/01/27/romantic-loose-curl-updo/).

Since it’s meant to look a bit messy rather than perfect, it will be much easier to do by yourself, and should last the day well. If you are wearing a head band, you could go for a little more height on the crown, maybe.

Eh, just some chick I met last weekend. 😉

Yeah, I mostly just wanna do \*something \*with it. I was considering the down-with-a-headband, maybe I could go that route. That’d be easy; I could just wrap my favorite headband with the seafoam fabric and pin the ends in, I wouldn’t even need to hem it…

Headband–lovely _and_ easy. What can I say, I like it!
