Coloring my hair tonight!

I chose a different shade from when I did it in May. Then I used “5N Medium Natural Brown” but this time I’m going with “5G Medium Golden Brown.” It’s sorta close to my natural color but last time my hair went to the darkest option so I figure it will again which is a shade or two darker than my natural color. Even though it’s “permanent” I noticed my previous color faded away 100% after about 3 months. I didn’t end up having roots haha!

I’m hoping I love it. I got my hair cut last Sunday. I had that blunt bob for a year, I’m kinda feeling newb at styling layers again! Gah!!! I used to ONLY ever have layers and then the blunt cut was all new to me, haha. Mmmm it’s difficult when you rush every morning. But I thought getting a third long layer put in would be nice. Semi-regretting. I think it’ll look better after my hair grows a few inches. Though I’m SO HAPPY I got the big chunks at my chin put in. I absolutely ADORE THEM especially when I pin my hair up in barrettes! This is the collage I took with me to my stylist. Right now my probably biggest, and random, hair inspo is Amo. Also Shiho but hers is much longer than mine.

Baby Lips!
I was tweeted about these 3 weeks ago? Anyway, they’re wonderful! They smell and taste fantastic and the color is sheer but still shows. Also they are extremely moisturizing. The color does bleed a little if you apply too much or sans mirror but I was expecting it to. I used to use an AVON sheer balm years ago that was similar. These are way better though. Just wouldn’t apply without my mirror. But my lips are pretty thin anyway so I have to be sorta precise. I had a little difficulty finding them at first since they’ve gotten so popular.

The above colors are Pink Punch and Cherry Me. Cherry Me is by far my favorite! Karen talked me into getting these. I had noticed them when they first came out but decided I had too many lip items already. Then I kept seeing them pop up in magazines like Sweet over & over again. Ugggh, needless to say I was an easy sell at that point. I’m glad I get them. They are perfect for winter lips.

Revlon Colorburst Lip Butters
Another Karen influenced purchase, aahahahaha!! Again, so happy I got this! And again, hard to find not soldout! I got Creamsicle. I’d like the peach shade but I haven’t seen it in stock. But this is close enough to what I wanted. I wanted a sheer nude that leaves my lips slightly pink still. Well this worked out great! And it’s sheer enough I can apply without a mirror and not have to worry.

I’ve been wearing these items every day They’re my go-to lip colors right now.

A is for Accessory


Messy, messy, messy rain soaked hair.

Mike found these Missoni for Target barrettes this weekend. Last pair after a recent re-stock. I was so happy to get them though, they’re lovely & I’m barrette obsessed lately. These were the 1 Missoni item I really, really wanted. I wore them to work and even got a compliment on them.

I took this photo after 8 hours of work plus having been rained on about 3 separate times today. I’m surprised my hair doesn’t look WORSE actually. It’s bitter, bitter cold & rainy today but tomorrow is supposed to go back to normal fall weather & temperatures.
