New Colours






I have always had a soft spot for Katy Perry's style as its just the right mix of stunning makeup and quirky outfits.  Sure not all of her clothing is suitable for walking to the supermarket to pick up some milk but I love the risk of what she wears. 



So as the red in my hair dye starts to fade I have been looking for a new color, partly because of the fading but mostly as I seem to see every second person with the exact same color.  This started me searching for some inspiration.  Sure I could follow the cosplay path and go pink, green or something just as out there but the color has to be one I can also wear to work.  Which is why when sent a link to Katy Perry's wide awake clip the suggestion of dark blue/purple seemed to speak volumes to me.  I'm currently researching what it all entails and most likely I'll end up at Wildlocks in the city as they are amazing when it comes to colors like this.  So right now its all about watching Youtube clips to find out the good, the bad and the mistakes I can learn by.  And who knows the next pic of me may be with my new color.


And now for the clip that is inspiring the color change....enjoy

This little piggy.....

Now I always seem to have pockets of loose change at the end of the day which usually end up scattered around my house. But not anymore, thanks to a very sweet reader I was sent this super cute two toned purple piggy bank from Howard's storage. I think I've found the perfect home for the "new shoes/dress" fund.

This little piggy went shopping.....

Has my make up melted

Well after looking at the beautiful images of Vargas yesterday I was inspired to head to work in my best little "melting in the heat pinup gal" outfit



Today's color was purple.
So purple eyes, purple shirt, fav purple cardi


The plan was mainly to see if the make up would last the 38 degree day we had.


Thankfully it did....must say the amount of trips made to the juice bar
and ice cream stall may have something to do with the cooling temp.
