What I Wore :: Purple Hair

glasses :: Derek Cardigan 7016 from Coastal
dress :: thrifted

brooch :: thrifted
tights :: Walmart
shoes :: Blowfish

I realize that this is not the best hairstyle to show you my pretty new hair! Hair colour expert Kaylah did such a great job making my hair pretty. I love it so much. Thank you Kaylah! Next time I will style my hair in a way that shows of all the pretty tones a bit better.  This is the best purple I have ever used, I have found a new favourite hair colour!

If you are wondering what that weird bruise on my arm is, first, thank you for your concern and don't worry it is just from having blood work done. I actually didn't notice the bruise in person at all but it is so visible in the photo that it made me laugh.

Yesterday I started doing a major closet purge and today I think I will do a fabric purge to empty out my craft room a bit...or a lot. I just have way too much stuff and my urge to declutter is trumping my urge to hoard so I should take advantage of this while I can. First though, I'm off to start my day with a grilled (vegan) cheese sandwich, my current favourite breakfast.

    I love this dress. My dog's favourite food is also grilled vegan cheese sandwiches. We don't give it to him, but he went absolutely insane when we were eating it the other day. He also loves the smell of chocolate soy milk :D

    Uh I wish that I was living close to you guys so that Kaylah could encourage me to try an insane color on my hair. Of course she would have to help me out too! :D Love it loooove it.

    It's SO purple!! My best friend dyed her hair that purple once (she had only ever dyed it in the natural red/brown range before...and since..) and she nearly had a panic attack when she looked in the mirror the first time, hahaha. Good memories :P

      Hi Michelle. No, no closet sale, just bags full of donations! Kaylah and I both love Punky colours so that is what we used. The purple colour was Plum.

    Yes, those ever fleeting moments of full fledged filtering... no, it doesn't happen often for me either. To the point where I have to take everything away or else I will unpack it all the next day! haha Cannot allow time to rethink your decision. Good luck and I think the way your hair is styled still shows the color beautifully!

    Love & Lollies... Jessa

    So much purple! I love it! When you said you picked up hair dye on your photo-an-hour post, I was so excited to see what color your hair would turn up to be next! And it looks fantastic! I love how the rest of your outfit goes with the hair :)

    The purple hair is gorgeous and I love your nails :) What I can't stop staring at is the neckline on the dress. It's incredibly odd in the best way. You look adorable!
