what i wore: penny farthing

  hi peaches! hope everyone's week is grand! i can't complain it has been a good week.

 this last weekend tom and i went up to see my best friend who was in town and then stopped by kelly anne's house on friday. when i go there i was greeted with gifts!!! i mean who doesn't love that!! we had a really great night which you can see here.
above the gifts that i was given. a penny farthing red pleated skirt, WITH pockets and an owl purse! i feel so so loved! so cute right? both are from target. the shirt i bought a while back from h&m and then hand stamped it which you can see here. i am not crazy about the black cardigan i decided to throw on the last minute but this weather is really throwing me off, i mean it is BANANAS! no rain or snow where there is usually snow. mother nature what is up? don't get me wrong totally loving it but the times are a changin' and not sure if for the better....
anywho, when i was up with kelly-anne, we started dip dying my hair which you can see in the first picture. it was in for an hour and barely got it to where i wanted it and bleaching scares me so we took it out. eventually, i would like to have lavender tips but i am totally digging the bronzy color. it is fun and different and every body needs a little change once in a while.

  11. Your hair looks bad-ass! I only got to see it for a second before you left, so I just creepy stared at the first picture for (probably) longer than would be considered normal. Loves it! Can't wait to purple you so we can be candy heads together :3

  17. Your skirt is super deluxe! I love it!

    I wanted to dip dye my hair, too... but, like you, I am afraid of the bleach...

    Don't worry on the weather... it's natural change... just as the earth has to adjust to us, we have to adjust to it...

  18. Your skirt is sooo perfect for you! The colour and print...lovely!
    And i had like the same dip dyed hair last summer but with a sidecut.. i really liked it for some months but then i got tired of it and wanted my dark hair back. but it´s great if you want some change but not so radical. And after it you´ll love your dark hair even more :)
