There’s something incredibly liberating about change and for me, that started with my hair. After two years of letting it grow, gaining a full nine inches of length, I decided it was time for a bold switch. I cut my hair into a chic bob, a style I hadn’t worn since I was 24 years old. And let me tell you, it’s been game-changing!
Taking out my extensions and embracing my natural look has been one of the best decisions I’ve made lately. The confidence, the lightness, and the simplicity, it all feels so refreshing. And the sweetest part? My son absolutely adores it. He says it’s “so me” and I couldn’t agree more.
Of course, a new hairstyle deserves a few new looks, and I’ve been loving these recent favorites that I just have to share with you:
The Black Blouse & Denim Skirt Combo
Chic, effortless, and timeless. This look is everything. The clean silhouette of the black blouse paired with a classic denim skirt creates the perfect balance between casual and polished. It’s a staple outfit that works for brunch, errands, or even a casual night out.
The Gorgeous Midi Dress
This dress is an absolute must-have. It’s light, airy, and so comfortable, yet still elegant enough to wear on special occasions. I love how versatile it is; pair it with heels for dinner or sandals for a daytime stroll, and you’re ready for anything.
The Blazer You’ll Never Want to Take Off
When I say this blazer is everything, I mean it. The fit is perfect, the fabric is soft, and the length is stunning. It’s the kind of piece that instantly elevates any outfit , whether I’m layering it over jeans and a tee or pairing it with a fitted dress for a business meeting.
The Long Sleeve Bodycon Dress
Fall is around the corner, and this long sleeve bodycon dress is perfect for the season. It hugs in all the right places, keeps you cozy, and transitions beautifully from day to night. A pair of boots, a cute bag, and you’re ready to turn heads.
Final Thoughts
Sometimes, all it takes is a small change to spark a big transformation. Cutting my hair reminded me that less is more, in style, in confidence, and in embracing the beauty of simplicity.
I’m excited to keep sharing my favorite looks and styling tips with you, and I can’t wait to hear what you think! @uptownwithmickaa - Insta!
