Back to Black (Again)

Back to Black (Again)





Hello! So these aren't the best pictures but I did want to show off my new hair colour! Or I guess it's my old hair colour. WHATEVER THE CASE, it's not purple/blonde/ratty roots any more and is back to a beautiful glossy brunette. I also decided to bring back the short fringe because I really do love it. To be honest, I didn't like it that much after it was done - not because it was a bad colour or anything, just because I felt so... normal. No more purple. No more crazy hair. But over the weekend I fell in love with it and today, well, today I loved it so much I took crappy Photobooth pictures just to show you.

Sorry for the lack of regular posts lately, I've been running around like a madwoman trying to keep my store looking pretty, celebrating birthdays, and of course organising a totally rad Halloween costume.

{ps my hair is tied up in these photos, not all chopped off!}

Magical Unicorn Hair!

Magical Unicorn Hair!



Hello! So here's a little look at my new hair colour! I loved the purple-tipped hair that I had in my Restyle photo so much that I decided to get it done for real next time I was at the hairdressers. It was put in with a Kevin Murphy colour bug for the shoot, but this will hopefully last a lot longer!

I (well, Aidan) took this photo before we went to Flight of the Conchords. It was SO GOOD! If you ever get a chance to see them live you should do so, immediately.

In these photos I'm wearing a vintage dress and (faux) leather biker jacket from eBay. My hair was done by those fabulous folks at Peggy Sues - who are now taking new clients! Go go go!

Peggy Sue's

Peggy Sue's



I go on about Peggy Sue's all the time, but I don't think I've ever done a proper post on what is basically my favourite place to be, ever. I don't know what magical powers Bee has but the new Peggy Sue's studio - which also houses some other creative types, including the gorgeous Ebony from Little Gracie - is pretty much what the inside of my brain looks like.

Take a peek for yourself...












I've been going to Bee for almost two years now. I found out about her when I was looking for places to get my hair done for my 21st (I ended up getting it done at the uni hairdresser... the less said about that the better). Anyway, the first time I went to Bee was the first time I felt comfortable at a hairdresser - not only that, but she also dyed my hair red for the first time, and has seen me through many a colour change. She also rescued my hair after it was mercilessly butchered earlier in the year (again, the less said about that...) and at the moment it is in a very cute, '60s style, Alexa Chung-ish bob. So as well as providing a beautiful space, Bee also does a rather cracking haircut and I could not recommend her highly enough.

Also, moving in to her new space means now I can ogle pretty Little Gracie clothes every time I go there (see last photo)! I'm always terrified of smudging them with hair dye, but I do admire the gorgeous pieces from a very safe distance. I really must own something from her soon.

You can find out more about Peggy Sue's Studio at the Facebook page, and there's also a page just for hair. Go on and getcha hair did - you will not regret it in the slightest!

My Little Pony

My Little Pony


I'm off to the hairdresser's today (yay!) and these are some pictures that have been inspiring me. Lately I can't get candy-coloured tresses out of my mind. I've done the pastel, kind of ombre effect - with blue and then with pink - but maybe it's time for a full head of colour?

What do you think? I have always had a soft spot for My Little Pony... I just never thought I would be sartorially inspired by those magical beasts.
