New Hair

This week i had finally had enough with my hair and decided for a change! i wanted something summery as we have such amazing weather in the UK ... HAHAHAH just kidding! so the weather is crap and not making me feel summery so decided to change my hair and try and make myself feel better in the crappy cold rainy weather we are having. 

so anyways, anyone that has been following my blog for a while will know im not afraid of hair color. working in a hair dressers for 3 years is probably the reason. i decided to go for dip dying. know i know im a bit slow off the bandwagon but oh well i got there eventually. its a bit more like highlights that are not at the roots as i have sort of used 5 different colors.

so here is what i have now (excuse the heavy selfie post)

So i have the reddish brown that was all over

i then, using bleach, dyed the ends of my hair, leaving it a really light copper blonde 

and then the cheat HAHA (i didn't want to put anymore dye in my hair)..

using my old blonde and ginger extensions i dyed the roots of them a dark brown and left the ends, cut and styled them to suit my hair

and there we have it :) a cheat way of dip dying :) it works really well i think and im really happy with it. defiantly keeping this for a while 

speak soon,

OOTD - Fashion show outfit

Last friday i was invited to a fashion show at my old college and of course i said yes! the college is known for its high quality of work and couldnt wait to see all the work that they had done in the last year.

i hope to do a picture post of the show but i will have to ask the designers for the use of there work first, but first i will show you what i wore to the event.

i wore the purple vintage top that i talked about in my previous post £1

river island molly jeans £35

newlook heals (christmas sale) £8 

Newlook neaklace £19.99

primark rings £2.00

I like how i have put the top with the jeans to make it slightly more casual. the pale blue also works well with the silver shoes and purple and ties it all in 

Speak tomorrow,

OOPPPSSEYYYY!!!

So its safe to say i havent blogged in nearly a year? OOOPS!!

its been a busy one! so heres a few things that have gone down ...

- I started my fashion degree at the university of Northampton

- I turned 20 

- i got a boyfriend

- I got drunk ... lots 

- i brought way to many clothes

- i got red of my red hair :(

- my brother and sister in law had the most beautiful baby, Benjamin! 

As many of you might know starting uni is a HUGE culture shock! you move out and move in with people you dont know, you have to fend for your self, you get home sick, but its 100% worth it! 

i hope to start my blog up again but i will be adding things that im making and customizing and will be putting my one off pieces up for sale.

No.55 - From day to night!

 From day to night 

i got this dress in the topshop sale last week and fell in love. its just my style and i adore the colour. i thought it would look mad with my hair but i actually quite like the colour clash!

this is how i styled it for the day to the night.

this was such a simple look, just the dress a black blazer and black converse! Easy! i wanted to keep to a neutral colour, so decided to go for the black as my hair and the dress were a on the line of being too much!

i ended up going out in the evening but didn't want to take of the dress! i decided to do the same and choose another neutral colour so went for a nudeish bag and heals. i don't have many clutch bags.... hmm time to invest!! future haul ??

My favorite nail polish of july so far!

 GOSH - Lavender blue

i first saw this colour on a client that came into the salon that i work in. i had never tryed a GOSH nail varnish before and was excited to try it out! i must say this is one of the best nail varnishes i have ever used, i would go as far to say better then OPI ! the consitancy and thickness is perfect! drys SOOOOO quick and lasts over 4 days! i love the way i can do 2 coats looks like i have just had a set of gels applied! AMAZING

See you tomorrow :)

No.53 - Sorry ? i thought it was summer? oh wait its england !!!

9th july 2012  - Oh sorry i thought it was summer? ohh wait its england

well for those of you that don't know english weather at the moment is rubbish! Im currently freezing my arse off! to make matters worse Im not going away this year and i very much doubt the rain and cold winds are going to stop any time soon.

anyway to get to the point, over the last month or so ALL of my boots have broken so i needed a new pair. this is easier said then done when the shops are full to the brim of flip flops and summer wedges. i had a quick look on ebay and everything was boring and black! not something i want to be wearing in the summer. i had another look the other day and came across these babys! 

Leather - check!

colourful - Check!

have potential - Check!

Cost next to nothing? - Check 

As you can probably tell i have worn these a lot! they have saved my feet from the pouring rain! and they are really comfy too! 

These shoes are from Barrats, and as they are leather guessing they were around £40. i got them for £2.50 each!! so i got quite a bargain don't you think? 

i might stud the blue pair? what do you think? 

sorry its been a while but i'm back to blogging now. and i will fill you all in with what i've been doing. i hope to do some D.I.Ys , outfits posts and hauls within the next few days. 

you know that that means ?? back to a blog post per day!! EEEKK
