I've had a pot of pink dye sitting on my dressing table for a couple of months now and today I finally took the plunge and pinkified my hair. I used a bit of Directions Carnation Pink mixed with some Directions Lilac and lots of conditioner. I really like how it turned out as I didn't want anything too bright or in your face. Gotta incorporate Spring pastels into my look somehow so it may as well be through my hair. I went to Topshop the other day fully intent on buying lots pretty pastel clothes to freshen up my wardrobe. I came out with a bag full of grey things instead, epic fail. This top and jeggings were two of my purchases. I never thought I'd be seen dead in jeggings but I was really drawn to these ones for some reason. They go with nicely with loads of stuff and they definitely look more like jeans than leggings. After all the sunshine I thought I could get away with going out in just this but it was freezing out so I had to thrown on a coat & scarf on top.
I've been really busy today trying to sort out everything for Chloe's birthday on Wednesday & organising all my stuff. I'm baking her a four layer pink ombre cake with buttercream icing so I had to go get all the ingredients for that. I really hope it comes out okay, its been ages since I've made any cakes! I also went to Homebase to buy some new makeup storage. I only bought one set because I really need to cut down on how much I have. My lipstick collection is actually a bit insane. How many pinks does one person need?! My dressing table is looking a lot neater now & its nice to finally have all my nail polishes in one place rather than scattered round the entire house. Next I need to tackle all my jewellery, but that should be a doddle compared to all my makeup!

Can I steal your hair please????? this is exactly how mine would be in dreamland haha... I am the same about jeggings but they look amazinggg, also I hope all the bday plans go perfectly, I am sure they will <3
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks amazing! I am always wary that pastels might wash out my pale skin but your hair proves me wrong, it is really flattering & subtle :)
ReplyDeleteLove your outfit and you always look so good. Make up, hair, clothes..just everything :)xx
ReplyDeletelove your hair like that! xx
ReplyDeleteLoving your hair in pink, miss! It's a nice way to embrace the pastels craze. Are those jeggings nice? Ridic question but the only pair I have are from Primark & have lost all their jegging-ness. Would love to know if these are comfy-but-rigid at the same time.
ReplyDeleteI adore your hair like this and I love the jeggings. I have similar ones but yours are so much nicer! xo
ReplyDeleteAmazing hair, such a brill colour!! I thought the jeggings were actually jeans, I love acid wash so I'm a big fan of them!
