So what do you think of my new ‘do? Please keep in mind that I couldn't wash it due to the color, and I styled it differently from my stylist. She did kinda straight sideswept bangs and the rest wavy/curly. I woke up to a Joan Jett song and a terrible case of bedhead so I straightened it with a round brush and ionic dryer on dry hair, then hit the back that got especially bedheaded with my ceramic straightener. Then I hit it with a bit of Sexy Hair Spray Wax. I can't wait until I wash it and can really play with it, because I think the edgy layers and thicker bangs will do a multitude of fun things, both straight and wavy. The color was changed as well, red highlights, chocolate and dark brown lowlights. Fun and a bit funky without being so weird as to scare away my work clients.

Some days, I pull together an outfit, check out my reflection and feel pretty darn sassy. Heck, I’m proud of myself – short bit of time, kid role-playing that I am Mary Poppins and she Jane Banks (second time reading the book chapter a night), dog begging to go outside, kid begging to eat chocolate…
I am all about quality instead of quantity in ones closet. And I am not ashamed to wear the same thing more than once in a week (uh hello last post!). I am most famous for doing this on weekends – if the clothes aren’t dirty or rumpled, I will re-wear them the next day….

Black tank from Jessica Chaus, which I got at Marshall’s during the first trimester of my pregnancy. I loved it then because it wasn’t maternity, but worked with my changing shape. It was funny, after I had Emerson I tried on this tank and it looked so DUMPY, I was surprised. I now realize it…
Your hair always looks good – it seems like you can do so many different things with it. The new, darker color is very rich looking – excellent choice for the winter season! The extra layering should be fun to play with. Looks good!
LOVE the cut! I wish my hair had the potential to look that cool!
It is totally Joan Jett! I was thinking that before I read your post. So cute and I love the color change. 🙂 Great once again!
Thanks! I got caught int he rain today so it looked a bit mullet, but gee, it sure looks cute in a ponytail with the new bangs!
