So I’ve been posting a million hair ideas lately.
This is one I’ve thought of for a while though. I’m thinking maybe adding some semi-permanent brown under the bangs and front layers for some interesttt. It will keep me less bored with my monotone bleached hair and will fade out in time. My friend Remi from high school had this color done most of her junior and senior year and I always thought it looked really good. I don’t have any pictures of Remi from then on my computer, but I found some pictures on madradhair that sort of show the idea.
This girl’s is the closest to Remi’s though Remi’s was a little darker and she had some intense batwings that were compeltely dyed dark.
This next one is only the batwings done, I think she could use some color in the bang area. (also her picture is blurry)
This one isn’t quite what I am talking about, but I really like where she put color. It looks pretty good.
K opinions?

So I feel inspired lately by newest wrinkle to have more interesting, beautiful pieces.
I often buy cheap or basic items, which are nice, but it would also be nice to have a few really beautiful pieces.
Here are some pictures from the post that inspires me the most:
Nothing I would wear but I love the delicacy and the quality. This girl gets most of her things from anthropologie and built by wendy, neither of which I can afford at all, but I think it will pay to start saving for nice items in the long run. Also, I have a $50 banana republic gift certificate I have not used yet that could come in handy for these purposes. Maybe instead of trying to get a few basic summer tops with it I should spend it all on one really nice item.

So I’m thinking about ear cutouts. I think they’re pretty cute.
These are the best pictures of cutouts on not really short hair that I could find
Not sure how well it would look on an a-line, but madradhair was confident it would work. also I’m not sure i like my ears that much and I might we way self conscious about them always. Also cutouts are probably a bitch to grow out.
ALSO I really like this cut. I think it might work on me, though it would involve growing out the back of my hair pretty hard. But so cute! Also pretty awesome intense cutouts.
Also I like her color a lot. And I have like the same skin tone as her so I know it would work. I wonder if I could get it done over my bleached hair over spring break. It’s like my old color, but lighter and greyer and with a few lighter chunks it looks like.
Opinions plzzzz

So I got an email from Alloy today about a “secret clearance.” Alloy usually sucks, but they can have alright stuff so I checked it out and found that some jeans I had my eye on were now only $15!
Nothing really special about them except that I really wanted a pair of blackblack jeans and I have brown jeans in the same brand/style so I knew what size to get, which is the biggest trouble with pants
And since these things always charge ridiculously for shipping, I threw in a couple other things I had my eye on.
First, this shirt was only $6
And so was this skull scarf
Nothing super exciting, but some pretty nice basic cheap things.
I am on a huge scarf binge right now. Anyone wants to make me happy, buy me a lot of silk/cotton scarves. forserious

So I hopped on the Euro-hipster bandwagon and ordered a shemagh from some ebay dude based on Cairo (which is pretty cool).
I won’t have it for 2-3 weeks since it is so far away, but I’m pretty excited.

So after a year of trying to use cheap substitutes, I bought some of bed head’s manipulator from ebay and received it today.
Seriously, people on madradhair had warned that getting cheaper product just won’t be as good as manipulator and they were so right. It gives texture and control to hair without matting it and weighing it down (like garnier fructi’s surf hair did to me). So amazing. If you want good hair, seriously buy this.
also i think I did a pretty good job with makeup today so hooray me.

So I’m thinking about putting some toner in
my hair.
Right now I use Shimmer Lights shampoo which is like a very gentle daily toner for bleached hair, but I only wash my hair a couple times a week to protect my poor bleached hair so for a few days a week it is a little too yellow for my tastes.
I think I might use this:
But it’s always scary doing new things to my hair. I have come to terms with the bleached platinum blonde, but I’m afraid toning my hair will make it too white and I’ll have to come to terms with the new color.
So awn know. It’s still up in the air as of now.

Okay so the past week I have been thinking a lot about swimsuits. I know it’s not even spring yet, but whenever I walk into Target I see their ubercheap suits already out and dominating the entrance and think about what my annual swimsuit purchase will be.
I’ve been thinking I need a bitchingassawesome one piece. There is something totally classic and attractive and forgiving about a well cut one piece.
So I was looking at the internet and saw this and I like it a lot.
It’s so fucking cute and classic. But I seriously have no idea where one would get something like that.
And American Apparel has these pretty bitchin lame bodysuits.
I’m kind of a secret fan of the lame thing AA is trying to push, but these seriously weren’t doing anything for me until I saw a girl on newestwrinkle show a pic of one she tried on.
No offense to her, but it all pictures of her showing her favorite outfits, it is plain to see she is a big girl with more to love in the stomach area, but in this swimsuit she looks way hot. I seriously want this pretty bad and it is only $30. I wish I hadn’t left my credit card at home because I want to order it like now.
Only problem is, it has only lined and usually I depend on a small amount of padding in the boobage area in one pieces to prevent my small bosom from squishing into nothing from the tight fabric. And the lowlow cut seems like it requires cleavage to be appealing. But we shall see. I wanted to buy some eggplant leggings from American Apparel anyways. I wish AA was nearby and not an hour away so I could actually try these fuckers on and see if they are worthwhile.

Forserious.
I like to look at clothes and look at people who dress well, but why can I not dress myself that wellll. I am mad jealous right now because of a girl who just posted on newestwrinkle had the cutest yet attainable style. I’m going to be a creep and post pictures of my favorite outfits of hers.
So effing cute! She makes me want to go buy a million things.
