Jacket: Vintage. Shirt: Topshop. Cropped skinnies: Zara. Shoes: Vans. Bag: Alexander Wang (black version is here). Shades: Street Vendor on St Marks. Rings: YSL & Planet Blue. (surplus pics on Facebook)
Yesterday I put my fringe back in (translation: bangs). At the salon, my stylist had feather extensions in her hair and I had her put blue ones in mine (completely unplanned). Apparently they last for weeks and can be washed/dried with your hair. Another stylist with purple ones said she’d had hers for two months. They’re attached via little tubes to a few strands. I like that you don’t really see them unless a gust of wind or fast walking shows the flash of colour. It’s a bit of fun and perfect if you fear hair colouring. I can tell you now, for me it’s better than spray on colour. Remember the red done here? It rubbed off on clothes. Lovely.
I KNOW I need to do a hair post soon but I’ll tell you from now; I get my hair cut at Salon V by Vernelle. It’s a relief to find someone that understands how to work with my hair type and it’s not just me. Everyone I’ve recommended to them thus far for cuts/colouring etc have turned into regulars (blondes, brunettes – the spectrum).

It’s sunny out but still chilly, hence the Spring like get up with a furry number on top. Ahhh, give it a few weeks and no more jackets.

The green cropped pants are definitely a bold choice, but you totally rock it out. I have a similar pair from J Crew in a sunny yellow. You have inspired me to break them out sooner than I anticipated. Great post!

christina of profresh style says:
I’ve had my feathers in for like 3 months now. My hair stylist changed my beads only once and I love them. Although, I’m taking them out. I’m over it now that everyone and their mother has them here. HAHA. Now, I’m going light…lavennnddaaa. YES.

Karen says:
Thanks everyone. Zara is KILLING IT right now with pop clothes.
Christina = you and I need to meet! I need to see the beads. I LOVE those too. I’m sort of thinking that I should’ve just got an earring with a long feature piece attached. That’s another way around the whole feather in hair thing!
