The pink-tinted hair
And just in case it wasn’t really clear from my last post - my hair is now toned the tiniest bit of pink. Thanks Patrick from Fringe Salon Chicago for making my hair the most perfect hint of the color I love.
My hair matched my entire outfit!
(and isn’t my basenji, Sailor the cutest?)
I’m still without a good camera, but I just had to share this recent photo of my hair. It has faded to the perfect shade of pale pink. I love how pretty and bright it is - it looks especially great with all the black dresses I’ve been wearing lately.
Keep an eye out for an upcoming giveaway. I’ve got a slew of goodies for two of my readers! I cannot wait to share.
I promise some good photos from this weekend - Hope you all have a lovely one!
Coordinating outfits without being matchy matchy
While I never really want to MATCH my date, I think it is fun to go out while being arm candy for each other. I had an entire evening planned with S and we wanted to look amazing. His vintage floral shirt with skinny jeans and jewelry from topman paired well with my slightly 90s grown-up goth look.
Oh and I had fun changing my forever 21 necklace to be an upside down cross - the wonders of altering your own jewelry! :)

The sheerest of the sheer dress
Another new piece for my summertime looks. Of course since it’s still quite cool in chicago, I’ve paired it with a lot of layers.
This dress is so great for layering - I’ve got it here with leggings, but could easily also go over another dress, a slip, or even jeans.
