First, I guess I'd better address it. yes. my hair is BLONDE. (ahhhh). I finally took the plunge and am in the process of going pure white, but since I was a brunette there's a lot of bleaching involved. I have to be blonde in between to give my hair a break between bleachings since it's so damaging. Luckily my hair is short, so I can afford to do these crazy things. (p.s. the lady dying it offered to do it for free, so that was also a big factor in my decision)

Second, my dear dear friend Emma from the college days sent me this cardigan in the mail. She found it at a thrift store for 80 cents (!) and thought of me because it had a little fox on it. So sweet! It's really cozy and I like the camel shade a lot, and when I wear it I can pretend she is hugging me ALL DAY. not creepy at all..Thank you Emma, darlin'!

Third, this headband has been my favourite piece of jewelry for a long time now, but it seems like every time I wear it I never have time to take photos, so it never shows up here. I love anything that reminds me of the art deco era, and I'd love to have a bigger collection of greek and egyptian revival pieces.

  2. The blonde looks so charming on you! I'd never have the guts to go blonde myself, so I enjoy living vicariously through those who do. That headband is perfection - art deco was my first thought as well :)

  3. wow! Can't wait to see you white blond! You're very brave! I always wanted to try it but my hair is long and it's very hard. The most I got to was light-peach hahah not so great. But your hair even now looks super stylish, Kathryn! Love the fox, too.
