Queen Lila’s Easy Braided Updo Tutorial

I rarely wear my hair up outside of the house.

Leaving my hair loose has definitely become a habit, perhaps it’s because I had a variety of short to super short pixie cuts until my mid-30’s or maybe it’s due to my aging jawline or possibly it’s just the simple fact that running a brush through my locks is loads faster than fighting it into a bun. Whatever the reason I’m pretty darn happy to have discovered Queen Lila’s Easy Braided Updo Tutorial to change up my style a bit:

What do you think? Can I pull off this fancy (yet crazy simple) look while out and about?

Grab the tute below and let me know if this updo is a winner for me or not:
