What I Wore: A Little Bit Fancy
Tuesday, October 23, 2012

It's kind of sad to be posting these photos too, since I took them my bright hair is gone. If you follow me on Instagram you'll already know this (shameless plug, my name is prettyconfused, come follow me!) but last week I dyed my hair dark purple and cut my fringe again. The colour is a bit darker than I was hoping for, actually much darker than the box would have had me believe, but I'm happy with it (for now). I think the coloured hair made my outfits look a lot more fun though.
Well, I'm off, this week (and especially today) already feels like it is kicking my ass. I'm going to try and be productive today so I can relax for a little while this evening. Maybe if I am lucky I will have the time and energy to make myself a special treat for dinner.

That dress is gorgeous, you look lovely x
ReplyDeleteOh I love that dress!! The colour is so nice, and I like the cut of it, the way it sort of gathers toward the side. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteAnd I know what you mean about the bright hair adding something, but the nice thing about a more uniform hair colour for a little change is it gives you some time to play up other features! Wear bright lipstick, try out a bold hairstyle, something you ordinarily don't want to pair with bright hair. A shift in focus if you will! But then I get bored easily and I think it's fun to switch things up a bit!

I am excited to see your new hair! I know it's hard to change from brights, I still miss my old pink hair though. I love this dress, such a gorgeous colour!!

great dress! love your hair, interested to see the new color, I'll look up your instagram :)
ReplyDeleteSo many beautiful colors here! I love it, and sometimes I want to dress down too, but I realize those are the days I need that extra pick-me-up of a nice outfit!
ReplyDeletei love all of your layering, and these colors look amazing on you...even with your new hair, i'm sure! that scarf is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteSometimes dressing nicely can completely turn my day around. If I feel cute and confident, or wear something new, it makes the day seem a little brighter :) You look great in blue!!
ReplyDeleteA friend told me that your hair gets a little lighter if you wash it with Head and Shoulders shampoo. She said it worked for her, but I can't tell, because I don't dye my hair :) Anyway, I love your silky dress! x
ReplyDeleteI love everything about this outfit!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the advice, actually used it today! I felt like something was missing from my outfit so I stuck on some lipstick I couldn't wear when my hair my bright and I loved it! I'm planning on searching out the rest of them tomorrow (I still haven't finished unpacking since we moved) xo
ReplyDeleteI've heard that too, one of my flatmate's has some so maybe I can borrow it. I heard using using washing-up liquid can work but after bleaching my hair last month I really don't want to dry it out more.
ReplyDeleteOh, and if I was you I don't think I'd want to dye my hair either, yours is such a spectacular colour all on its own xo
Thanks so much for taking the time to read my blog, and even more for taking the time to comment. I read and appreciate every single one.
