Some Nice Things

How wonderful is Niotillfem's hair-bow? It's so sweet and cute. I instantly knew this would be something we're going to have try on you, Jasmine, for our next play dress-up/hairstylist day. She used this video, and it totally looks doable, so psyched!

From calivintage, came across another cute fashion blogger, Kennedy Holmes. Pillbox hats are way too cool.

And tinydoll's petticoats have reminded me of how much I love pretty things made of layers and yards of ruffles, lace and lots and chiffon. So nice. Here's her flickr, that she posts her creations on...I really want a petticoat like this. They remind me of the creme colored one you made. I think I'd have to wear it under every dress, like everyday, they just look like too much fun.

Peroxide!

Finally brought it back. It's totally fried but who cares! I think Im gonna have to change over to parting my hair on the opposite side, too, 'cause all the little layers my "normal" part are pretty ratty haha. Weeeeeeeeee!!!

Daily Outfit #1

So I was thinking that we should start incorporating our "daily outfits" into our blog, as we do appreciate fashion and individual style. Here's an outfit from last week while I was walking around in downtown Portland, OR. Of the five days that I was there, it was extremely hot, like in the high 90s, so I had to wear the least amount of clothing possible, but of course in the least revealing way, too. It was nice though to be able to wear a skirt again and not get cold at all for the whole day.

Sweater - Forever 21

Bandana - Thrifted

Black Chemise - American Apparel

Lace Skirt - Sewn by me

Shoes - Converse

(fun, secret flair: Black Apple pin)

New Hair

And I dyed my hair again. I'm a little compulsive when it comes to my hair, I like to change it up kinda frequently. I've been longing for chocolatey tresses for a while now. After seeing 500 Days of Summer, my girl crush on Zooey was renewed, and seeing her long brown hair reinforced my decision to dye it darker so I did it that same night. It actually turned out a lot darker than what I was expecting, some streaks are practically black, but Im happy with it. I think the hunt for a cute Black Apple girl that resembles me will be a lot easier now.

Red

Jasmine! I finally got around to doing it. I dyed my hair back to a redder shade. Sadly, it's already fading, but slowly. I'm just extending the number of days between showering to try to save it ha. It does look a little redder in person than it does in the picture. But in a few weeks, I decided I'd get back to dying it with henna again and sticking with that, in the hopes that it will just get to a more intense, richer red.
