Top Knot Tutorial

| By New Darlings

NewDarlings-TopKnot
I get questions about my messy bun all the time on instagram, and have always been hesitant to do a tutorial.  It’s kind of a style that I just throw my hair into quickly when I don’t feel like really doing my hair, and it’s a little difficult to explain. However, with warmer days just around corner, it felt appropriate to finally break down this look.  As with any hair tutorial, the steps are going to vary with your hair length and thickness, so hopefully the steps below give you a starting point and you can fine-tune it from there.Read More

At Sea with Princess Cruises

Three days out of our seven-day cruise with Princess Cruises were spent at sea. Sea days were so different from days at port. When docking and arriving at a new location, we were so eager to get ready, grab our bags, and explore off the ship. Days at sea were a bit more relaxed, and definitely embodied the whole “come back new” philosophy of Princess.  Can anyone say spa day?!

What’s in my bag: His + Hers Edition

New Darlings - In my Bag - His + Hers
Lately it feels like we’re always on the go…and we’re definitely not complaining about it. 🙂 With each new trip or busy day, we’re becoming a little smarter about what we really need to be carrying around with us or traveling with.  We each have our go-to bags that we grab each morning while running out the door, with a few essentials.   Although, we both seem to gravitate toward bigger bags, we try not to stuff them to capacity…we try our best to avoid any shoulder injuries and that whole black hole affect that we’ve all experienced at one point or another.  We’re not trying to be Mary Poppins here. 😉Read More

St. Maarten

The last stop on our trip with Princess Cruises was in St. Maarten.  We’d been looking forward to this stop, the whole cruise.  When we told our friends and family that we were going to be visiting the Caribbean, St. Maarten seemed to be everyone’s favorite, so we were eager to check it out. We had signed up for a tour around the French and Dutch sides of the country, so we were off the ship pretty early that morning and greeted by our tour guide named Hysterical — and yes, she definitely lived up to her name. 😉Read More
