If you want a easy updo use a silk scarf! I'm in love. 

You can pretty much tie it any way you want. I found several tutorials online.

I chose to wing it!

I started by finding the middle of my scarf and laying it on the top of my head.

I then took the two ends, that were hanging down on each side of my head, and crossed them under my hair line by the nape of my neck. I went back and forth crossing at the top of my head and my neck line until I ran out of scarf.

You can see in the pictures [above] that I just tied it off on the side of my head, leaving some cute loose ends.

If you have bangs you can also tuck them in to keep them out of your face and it still looks great!

1. Start by creating a part at the top of your head; begin to twist, one side at a time, your hair up and under. See figure 1. 

*When you get done with the first side you going to want to tie it tight with a ponytail until you get the other side done or it will just fall right out.

2. Gather your two twists into one low set ponytail. You may need to pull your "twist" a little tighter before you tie it off. 

Next put a finger or two through the top of your pony, between your ponytail and your scalp making a hole. You will be pulling your left and right twist out a little to create this hole. See figure 2.

2. Flip your ponytail up and push through the whole you created. See figure 3.

Now bobby pin the crap out of that sucker!

I usually put a couple in my twists on both sides to keep them tight and where I want. I also throw a couple to secure my hair that a pushed through so that it doesn't come out during the day.

This is my "so excited for work face"

No really, I love my job. All sarcasm aside.

I bought this red-orange blazer at Forever 21 a couple of months ago. I don't remember the price but they are usually pretty reasonable ($20 range).

I paired it with this black and white striped shirt and black slacks. I love the shirt because it has a ribbon bow sew on. 

I wore my pearl dangly earring [see below for close up] and simple makeup. 

For my hair I did a "twist and tuck". No this is not the actual name but thats a good enough discription. Posting the tutorial shortly.
