Han Starnes knit pants | I’m wearing m/l and got this color on sale at Garmentory
Petit Bateau tee | secondhand via Slowre
Eytys canvas sneakers | some sizes on sale in white
I totally wore these out yesterday and then all day/evening at home; these are pretty amazing pants. I see no reason whatsoever to relegate them to home-wear only…
Also, I feel like I can talk about my hair now, finally. It was a big change, and I might be used to it by now. When I first went darker it was WAY darker and the color needed to fade a bit to where it is now. I was sort of shocked every time I looked in the mirror. Not in a bad way, but also not in an OMG I love it! way either. Now, I like it, but I might need a few highlights in there (LOL) to brighten it up a little more? I don’t know. It’s just really different from what I’ve been living with for so many years, it may take a little more time…
So funny how I do things sometimes: we were making some big changes anyway – moving – so why not also drastically change my hair?? Yeah, why not? I am an extremist rebel apparently LOL. Go big or go home!!
How do you make changes? All at once, or little steps over time? If you’re already making a big life change, do you pile on and try and make more changes you’d been meaning to make? or do you finish one and start another??
For me, I have learned that a second big change on the tail of a first big change {anticipated or not} is usually a bad idea. I discovered that I need to work on sitting with new feelings, circumstances, ideas for a while. I habitually am a “person of action” which can have many benefits, but can also put me on the crazy train rather quickly.
I’m all over the map! Some change comes easily, “Move to Long Island from Minnesota? Sure!” While other, less important decisions can be hard for me, “Make me a blond? Oh gosh…I don’t know…should I?” 😉
My theory about women’s hair is that we do drastic things with our hair when we have a significant life change (like a move). Watch celebs, and it’s almost like you can tell if they’ve got a major life crisis going on by their hairdo! (Ok, so it’s not scientific.)
haha. yes, i suppose that is true. (about celebrities hair i mean LOL)
it’s funny how easy i can change my hair and it doesn’t normally bother me. even if it really is bad !!
