5 fave frday

5. Amy's month long self-love project.
You should realllllly pop by Amy's blog if you haven't already and see what kind of awesomeness is going on over there. I love Amy.

4. This closet. Yes, it is a child's closet but I would love it filled with my things.
It is so organized and colourful! I love it.

3. This bathing suit.
ModCloth ::Chevron the Boardwalk Swimsuit
Thanks to Twin Peaks I am forever obsessed with black and white chevron.

2. This adorable haircut.
I was debating giving myself this haircut but chickened out and just trimmed off a bit more of my dead ends. I feel like I would want to call in professional help on that one. It's pretty tricky to cut the back of your hair! Ack, so tempted!

1. Red!
ModCloth :: In Love and Beyond Coat
That last dress is my favourite dress shape I think. The squarish neckline is so pretty, the sleeves are perfect and I love the length. I kind of want to be ridiculous on Valentine's day and wear all red. Good idea?

What are your plans for the day? I have some trashy reality television to catch up on while I tidy my office and finish up some guest posts. I really want to go for a walk today too, I just wish it was sunny out! Have a great Friday!

  1. I caught something of the hair-dilemma on twitter;) I bet the cut would really suit you, but like you said, it might be safer to have someone else do it.

    I'm in a bit of a hair-dilemma myself. As to dye part of it or not. We'll see;)

    No clear plans for today really. I might meet up with a friend, but there's a lot of snow, so I'm not 100% sure. Other than that, enjoy the white world of course! It looks so pretty:D

  5. my favourite actress is Carey Mulligan!!! i love her hairstyle and the peter pan collar sweater in the photo!

    i am totally love with the red Modcloth coat!

    we have got a "farsangi bál" today (Wikipedai writes it "Mardi Gras") and we are having an other ball at 16, Febr in the school.

    we usually wear costumes this time. (like you at Halloween)
    today i don't want to wear costume, because i don't finish it. i am going to wear it in the school ball. i will Cotton Candy. i make this costume from cotton candy pink tulle.

    have a nice weekend!

  6. i organize my closet by color. it makes you realize what you have available to wear ... if you need a certain color. i'm going to check out amy's blog. you should go for it & on go cutting your hair ... cut a little here & there ... be brave. it will always grow back. if you love it that is all that matters. well, make sure the hubby loves it too ... he has to look at you as well. ha. ha!! (:

  8. You should totally get that hair cut! It'll feel so good and healthy, and I think it'd really suit your face shape. I tried growing out my hair for 9 months last year, then went crazy and cut it all off into a pixie. I've always been too afraid to go that short, but now I love it! I've been cutting it myself too, but the back is sorta tricky... I would go to a hair salon for at least the first cut, then see if you could trim it yourself.

  9. ooo i love all of these!

    i had a pixie for years. i kind of miss it, but growing it out is a bitch!

    today, after i finish up some work, i am going to the container store with my mom. i am so excited to organize everything! (i may have watched hoarders last night as well... fueling my organization obsession)

    also...that bathing suit it freaking adorable! if i didn't own WAY too many already, i'd be ordering it. i have this weird thing with ordering bathing suits...like the second i book a vacation or summer is coming, i buy like 3...leaving my collection at like 12 or something. who needs 12 bathing suits when you live in canada? haha

  14. That hair cut is beyond cute! You could look awesome with it- but I definitely second having a professional or a friend do the back ;)

    1. I'm so tempted!! But I'm sure you feel my pain on the growing out process although you are doing it ver gracefully. I've grown out a short haircut once already and it was torture. At one point i was rocking the head full of clips look!

  15. I say... cut it yourself!!!! Get a razor! Easier and makes much more texture than shears. I've been cutting my own hair (pixies and all) for years with a razr I got from Sally's. Do you have Sally's in CA? You inspired me to bleach my bangs and eventually do color. :) I'm trying for white, for now, and see where it takes me. Love your blog, doll. You've also inspired me to keep up on my own. Have a fabulous day / weekend!

  18. Red is one of my favorite colors I just got a pair of red tights from We Love Colors and I am in love! They're so fun to wear!

    And Carey Mulligan is just too cute. I saw her in the Doctor Who episode Blink and she was great. Love that episode. <3

  21. I think you would look adorable with that cut! Plus, I can't get enough of that swimsuit!

  22. Cut it! If you are in the hammer, I recommend my hairdresser downtown. She works at Total Image-her name is Felma, and I think she does a wonderful job cutting short hair. I have a thing for Michelle Williams hair-and Ginnifer Goodwin. I'm vowing never to grow out my hair again.

  27. That haircut is pretty much exactly what I have right now and I seriously have never received more compliments on my hair in all my life than I have in the last few months. People just go gaga for a well done short cut. But be warned, I am trying to grow it out and it means trims every couple weeks. But I love my stylist so I don't mind the excuse to visit!

  31. Scrolling through your reds I was thinking "pretty, pretty, pretty, GORGEOUS!!" Gah, that last dress is fantastic. I cut my own hair that short once, and I don't think I'll ever do it again. It is super cute, but so much more work. As funny as it is to wake up with your hair sticking all crazy over the place! :) The back IS super tricky to cut. I got pretty good at it though when I would trim my short hair. I'm growing it out now. It's finally starting to feel long again.
