Beauty: Four Easy Summer Hairstyles

A cool way to beat the heat all season long is to keep the hair out off your face. Here are four styles you can easily pull together (without a hair stylist) for either a look that's sleek and sophisticated or casual and laid-back.


Top Knot

The easiest way to do this is to put your hair in a high ponytail then twist the hair into a knot and pin into place.

Lucy Hale and Ashleigh Murray to Star in Riverdale Spin-Off "Katy Keene"

I'm so excited to hear that Lucy Hale has been cast to play Katy Keene for the new Archie Comics' Katy Keene TV series on The CW. Joining her on the new series is Ashleigh Murray who currently plays Josie McCoy on the Riverdale TV series.

I'm happy for both actresses for this new series because Lucy Hale's last CW show Life Sentence was really good but it was cancelled. While Asleigh Murray's Josie was being wasted on Riverdale and I thought that Josie & the Pussycats deserved a spin-off series. However, since that's not going to happen, I do hope she will get to shine more on this new show.

It will be interesting to see what tone the Katy Keene series will take, will it follow in the dark, dramatic and comedic tone of Riverdale and the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina or be something completely different. It doesn't matter, I'm really looking forward to watching Katy Keene.

New Book Purchase and Toy Corner: Batman/Catwoman: The Wedding Album and Funko Josie McCoy (Riverdale)

I just got back from the comic book store and thought I would post my two wonderful little finds. The first is the Batman/Catwoman: The Wedding Album. Yeah, I know I shouldn't have bought it but I guess I'm a fool because why else would I buy a collected copy of the wedding that wasn't. I don't know, I saw it and thought it seemed like a cool find.

And the second thing I found was a Funko Josie McCoy from the Riverdale TV series. She's pretty cool and apparently a limited edition figure which is why she cost slightly more than the average Funko. But I figured I would get it since I only had three books on this week's list and not to mention the last time I bought a Funko was during this year's Free Comic Book Day.
