But Still, I am In Love With This Lie


Yay, new stuff! Well... newish stuff.. I got a few parcels in the post today of things I have been buying on ebay. I got these Topshop Unique jeans which are a little hard to get over my hips but once there they fit beautifully! Also got this jacket (another topshop item). Then later in the day I went to look in the charity shops down the road and found this checked shirt from 'Kimichi & Blue' which is a brand sold at urban outftters. So all in all a good day for bargains.


I wanted to get everyone's advice on an idea I have been toying with regarding my hair.. I saw these pictures on 'studded hearts' and am tempted to go for this ombre gold highlighted look with my hair. I used to dye or cut my hair all the time but recently Ive left it all natural and its become a little boring. Not sure whether I could pull this look off? My roots will certainly be dark enough to give a good contrast! Let me know what you think...

  4. I have this kind of hair (just two times longer :p ), but it is almost natural.
    I discoloured my hair years ago and -even if I've tried to dye them again- they have always faded (especially during my holiday at the sea).
    But pay attention to discoloration: at the beginning my hair were a bit orange! (but every head is different, actually)

  5. I love your dark hair. It goes so well with your complexion! I think you might need to build up a tan if you're going for lighter hair... just a thought.

    P.S. your outfit posts always make me miss England sooo much... car boot sales and Topshop... *SIGH* I wish I could go to London again =( or just ANY part of the UK really, I'll settle for that =P

  13. you should totally do the ombre thing, you can definitely pull it off!

  14. Maybe not gold highlighted,but kind of a dark -red highlighted.
    Its just that everyone is wearing gold highlights in their heads and its becoming sort of average. Different is good.

  19. Your dark hair and fair skin are gorgeous. Keep that beautiful mane of hair and NEVER get a tan! You'll be so glad you didn't in 10-15 years.

  22. yes for sure on the hair, i love love love this look, i think its so rock'n'roll. my hair isn't as long as the pics you posted but ive got the lighter ends and im dying for it to get past my shoulders and start looking like a mane of golden edges.
    although i do prefer the 2nd pic, where the lightened bits are lower down, much more natural-looking than the first.
    i used to work in a hair salon and everyone wants this look but i don't think just anyone can pull it off. you gotta be pretty-but-rocky, delicate-but-grungy, sophisticated-but-vintagey. you are all of those thinsg and more, so i say go for it! good luck x
