Pink eye in a good way!

(The first picture is the most accurate colourwise.)
 


I LOVE this bright fresh look... *_____* What do you think?

 

New painting!!!

I've been busy with orders for the last few months so I haven't had the time to do much painting for myself. I love the work and the (few) extra money, but honestly I feel like a whore painting stuff I'm not into... But onto something I'm very much into:


 

 

It's called: 'Sweet Revenge, Tarantino-style.'

It's about growing up and out of the shell you're given as a child. It's about the feeling of revenge when you see all the people who used to hardcore bully you, isn't the least successful and actually turns out to be quite the failure. It's about sexuality and being happy with yourself.

 

COONTAILS!!! (Hair)

Yeah, I discovered the name for it! (I know it's kinda pic-heavy...) I was freaking scared of doing this, but I'm super happy with the result! Again, because of my obsession with symmetry, I did two equal pieces. I did use bleach, which I know is like worshiping Satan in the long hair circuit, but I don't really care much... I'm generally very good with my hair and it's not like I did my hole head. I didn't leave it on for very long because I wanted to achieve the, much hated, brassy look. Since my natural hair colour is a light auburn, dark strawberry blond, red-ish light brown, (whatever you wanna call it!) I don't at all dislike red hues in my hair. BTW I took the pictures using my bathroom lighting wich makes my hair look anything but red. (You can see how green-ish the door looks.)
I really like the sort of feather look. If you look up coontails on google it's very scene kid-styled, but I wanted to do it in a hippie/bohemian inspired edition. It reminds me of fasan feathers. I think it looks elegantly subtle yet edgy, and if I wanna hide it I can just make a sideparting. The coontailed pieces is some of the old face framing layers I'm growing out, so they are not as long as the rest of my hair. After the bleaching I treated my hair with a nice deepconditioning, followed by some good old coconut oil! And I'm not gonna wash my hair for a week... *__________* (So far I can't feel any changes in my hair. And even though my hair is sort of fine, it's actually surprisingly strong.)






 
I'm cazy in love with my hair rigth now!!! <3<3<3







(Fashion)Stuff I got for Christmas!

I think some people calls it a Christmas haul, anyways, it's just some of the awesome stuff I got...
First, I love basics, and this is a very casual cotton shirt. I'm still totally in love with all nuances of wine-type colours, and grey is also one of my great loves. So it couldn't be more perfect for me!
The next item is this amazing, slouchy knit. It’s very, very big (intentionally) but it’s quite light. I love the colour and the pattern. I think it’s so pretty! I think I’ll roll up the sleeves and maybe wear a belt to cinch in my waist. I can’t wait to wear it! ^_^ And a little close up of the knit:
 
The next thing I got is this rad belt. I’ve wanted a chain-type belt like this for a very, very long time.
I also dig the "reptile" leather accent.
Yay! More beanies! I can't get enough of them, they are a total lifesaver on bad hair days. *____*And they are, at least in my opinion, pretty cool...

 
Next thing is this amazing pair of earrings. First, I’m quite obsessed with symmetry so I really like that it’s a pair and not just one chain cuff. Then, I love how dainty they are with the fine chain and the pearl stud.  
I got a new hat! During the last year I’ve actually bought quite a few hats… I'm probably doing a post about it soon… :) Well, I’ve always liked this kind of “man” hat, so I was very happy when I got this for Christmas. It’s a little too big on me, but that’s okay because with my everyday bun it fits! With all my other hats I have to have my hair in a loose braid or down. So it’s actually great.
These necklaces are a little present to myself.  They were very cheap so I couldn’t resist. I adore the red one and how baroque it is. I love everything resembling that period… I love the other necklace for the simplicity and modern feel. I’ve really been into necklaces lately. And both have a gunmetal look which I absolutely love!!! ^ ^


 
I also got the two first seasons of both Mad Men and Vampire Diaries. I loved VD from the first few episodes, but with MM I wasn't convinced at first... But now I quite like it, so can't wait to have a series marathon! (I don't have cable or anything like that.) I also got some money and other "boring" stuff. I didn't get a ton of stuff because I'm from a very little family, but I'm very happy with what I got. I held Christmas with my mom and little brother at my place, so it was my first Christmas at my own place, so that was pretty cool. ^__^ I hope you also had an amazing time during the Holidays!

I have an itch!!! :P


Ha ha, not in a dirty way... I feel like doing something with my hair... I've had this idea for five years or something like that. I haven't done it because I didn't feel brave enough to try. It's a little difficult to actually do and I haven't yet figured out how I'm gonna do this.


I wanna do something like this. just with one or too locks. Maybe one on each side... I don't know. I think it would look quite awesome! My first idea was to do the stipes with black dye, but I'm now considering using a lighting dye, not bleach. I really like the, sort of, feather look.
I have also really been considering doing highlights. I don't know. I feel like doing fun stuff with my hair!
