Spring Haircut

I completely forgot to post my haircut in my weekly post! After six months, I decided it was time for another haircut. I had originally planned for a shoulder length haircut, which would have been about five inches. But I ended up with a below the shoulders cut, so only about three inches. Regardless, I'm happy. I think my hair looks much healthier, and my hair doesn't fly everywhere and get in my face like it used to.

my week in baby parades!

My week was quite mundane. School, hw, gym, new tv shows, internship. I can't believe four weeks of school have already flown by! It's nice to settle into a routine. Now that I have this nice little routine (including, a set route to school) you start to see the same people at certain times. Or, if you're lucky, you get to see a baby parade every day!! Seeing the baby parade is definitely the highlight of my day every time I see them, and I'm starting to recognize the little munchkins! I hope they start waving back to me!

This week I wanted to do super cool nails to make things exciting. I recently saw a tutorial on how to do crescent or half moon nails, which I've seen all over the blogmosphere. The trick is to use paper reinforcements. so clever! For the base, I used a fake OPI polish I got in China, so it chipped liked crazy!! And then the half moons are OPI Russian Navy suede. I don't actually like the suede effect, so I'm not sure why I originally got the polish. But, I discovered that a coat of clear polish gets rid of the suede effect.

Summer is officially over, and fall is finally here! To celebrate the last warm days I wore a dress (which I don't wear very often) on Wednesday. To make it more fall appropriate, I threw a denim shirt over it. If the weather had been a little cooler, I definitely would have worn suede boots with the dress! But I opted for light pink studded ballet flats.

I wore that dress just in time, because yesterday, October brought refreshingly chilly weather! At night (when it reached mid 50s!) I bundled up with a military jacket, my favorite bunny (and miu miu esque) scarf and a little fur stole! So excited to break out all my fall jackets and scarves!

I switched my google chrome theme, which made me surprisingly happy! I really like the color palette of my new one!

And now, the (actual) best part of the week.....I got a haircut!! It was slightly tragic at first. I had "sideswept bangs" that were not sideswept at all and dreadfully short. A few snips at home, and, well you can asses my haircut for yourself. I am quite pleased.

Last Saturday my friend Justine and I got our hair cut. Before we went, we had decided that we were just going to get a trim. I ended up with a shorter haircut than expected, but I'm really happy with it! I think it'll look great when it grows out a tad, because right now I need bobby pins to style it, but I'm pleased overall.

I finally got my haircut yesterday. I must say, I'm quite pleased with the way the guy did it. It's a tad hard to explain, but he gave me layers from all angles instead of the bottom layer of hair being the longest, etc. But I like it. Though, I am unsure of my bangs, I think they need to grow out for a week or two until they're the desirable length. Time to write my advance college essay now.
