Hightailing in High Heels: hair cut

Trend Spin Linkup Week 13 - Cobalt

Woo hoo! I'm on a roll lately. ha! Ok so three posts in a week are good for me. And I have finally found some time to linkup again with Walking in Memphis in High Heels and The Fashion Canvas . Today's theme is cobalt! I actually own a few pieces in this color but I was mostly excited to bring out a dress that I bought last year (shame on me) that STILL had the tags on it. I know I can't be the only one who does that? You know, goes shopping, buys a lot of stuff and then never wears it? lol Well I am happy that I actually got to get some use out of this dress and it's perfect for game day with a big chunky orange necklace since I actually plan to head up to some games this year! (Go Gata!)

What do you think? It's really a fun dress and I actually own it in purple too..with the tags still on it as well. Hmm I will need to find a place to wear that one next! Anyways, I bought them earlier last year during a huge sale at The Limited. And can we talk about the pockets? Um big bonus! I paired the dress with some wedges and a rope belt for work today and since the sleeves are a little longer than normal, it wasn't too bad to wear without a cardigan. It is usually super cold in my office and the dress is sort of insulated with a thicker fabric and it kept me warm enough.

Also, I am really loving my hair. It's so fun to curl! The more I experiment with hair products and tools, the easier it becomes to manage. However...for a Florida girl, I am super pale, no? Time to get to the beach!

Have a wonderful day loves.

Back To My Roots

I think. So it was definitely time for a change and what do you do when you feel the need for change? You do something to your hair! I called up my amazing hair stylist, Amanda, and boy did she have her work cut out for her. I wanted something fun and bouncy cut wise with lots of caramel and blonde highlights! And she did just that! It's pretty close to my natural which is kind of like a dirty blonde but I really love how it turned out. What do you think?

Lately, I have found myself really attracted to creams, peaches and soft pinks. It's crazy how our personal style can evolve when you love certain colors. I've put together a little inspiration below of what I'm loving right now. Also, have any of you jumped on the rose gold trend? It's starting to get to me and I really love the gold infinity bracelet below. PS. Run to your nearest Target and grab every pair of the Sam & Libby sandals below - they are on sale and so adorable!

Alright I am off to spend some time in the sun, spend some hard earned money and meet up with the best girlfriends!

I caved.

Ever feel like you give too much? And receive too little? Lately, that's how I am feeling around these parts. It's really hard to get a handle on life sometimes and I think it slips between our fingers. I am beginning to learn how much I can truly take on and I know that we are only given as much as we can take but there are days where it just feels like it's too much. I plan to start reminding myself that life does go on and good things will happen to good people in time. So patience is obviously a big part in life. Sometimes we just need a little reminder. It was nice to get away last weekend even if it was just for work. I am looking forward to getting back into the swing of things and for the long weekend ahead which includes lots of time at the beach! Oh and a little me time with a hair appointment, pedicure, manicure and some shopping. It's the little things that make me happy..haha!

Also.. I decided to take the plunge and purchase a new curling iron. I love my wand but sometimes it is just too difficult to hold. Anyone use the Chi curling iron? I got it at a MAJOR steal at Target using coupon codes, gift cards and my red card! And I even purchased the 2 year warranty and still managed to only spend $9. Woo hoo! I will do a little review on it once I receive it next week.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend! I'll be at the beach. Catch up with you all next week!

I'm back!

It's hump day already and it's Halloween!

I know you can feel the excitement in my words.

So I know you are just dying to know what I have been up to (I kid) but I plan to tell you regardless! For the past few weeks, I have been pondering the idea of coloring and cutting my hair. I have always had long hair usually light brown but in the recent few months it has been all over the grid from blonde to brown to all in between! Well my dear friends, it was time for a change! Sadly, a few months back, I got on the ombre train and had my stylist bleach the lower half of my hair...oh boy did that not go over well. So since then I have been trying to nourish my hair back to its health prior to the ombre. So when I went to the stylist last Friday, she told me it was just not possible to keep and the ends had to go. Four and a half inches of hair gone! And a dark color applied to even out the color. So I am super sad to lose the length, but it is just hair and in a few short months should grow back, right? Ha.

Don't judge on the lighting..and yes I was in the passenger seat when I took that picture! :)

Here are a few pictures from the last few months of hair changes! The one on the right is where I currently stand. I love the color but definitely can't wait for my length back! What do you think?
