Simple Hairstyles

These stars nail the relaxed style perfectly. Fearne Cotton’s blonde bob is chic and frames her face wonderfully. If you have bangs like Rose Byrne, try a loose bun, letting a few strands fall. The ‘half up, half down’ look is great for any hair length. It keeps hair off your face while showing off some curls.

You know you're going to give your kid a complex if you call them "The Mean Bean" instead of; sweetiepie, sugar face, bear, etc. My nickname stuck- even when I got nicer. AND my affinity for all things BEAN happens to be tremendous; Coffee beans (my coffee feign), Cocoa beans, Vanilla beans, chickpeas (yes, it's a bean), black beans....and so on. As for the "mean" part, depends on which ex-boyfriend you ask. I think I'm super sugary. And no, I will not be writing any guides about beans. Unless I get a special request.
