I'm Really Into Topknots.

How cute are these girls in their cute, girly outfits and messy topknots?

Okay, this one's a little over-the-top, I'll give you that.
Evidently, they were all the rage in the spring fashion shows.
Even celebrities are rocking them...

And yet, after a pre-Christmas Christmas dinner, as we were headed to the movies, I threw my hair in to a top knot and was mocked relentlessly for being serious about wearing my hair like that in public.

We're talking out loud laughter, side-mouth mutterings and even a "well, at least she's not embarrassed" comment in line at the movies. It was so much mocking that my mom even mentioned it again the next day, "They sure were concerned about your hair-do!"

I showed them...
I wore that silly gold ribbon that they had tied around my topknot all night.

Just look at how cool I look here:

Here's a little topknot tutorial for you, in case you're feeling gutsy.
I'm pretty sure I'm going to try this look for work tomorrow.
Can't wait to hear McGill's response.
