So, I'm wearing a sweater covered in crabs.
Look here, my zodiac sign is Cancer--and I'm a Cancer to the core. Sometimes outgoing--sometimes introverted (in our shell). That is ME. Hella emotional?--ME! All about home and family--that use to confuse me during my single years but who knew?! It's so me!
So, of course, when I stumbled upon this sweater on Forever21.com, I had to cop it. You put a crab on it, I'm going to buy it! You put crab IN it--I'm going to eat it! Okay, that may not have been the best thing to say. Anyway, I'm in love with this sweater, though it feels more like a sweatshirt. And no, your eyes aren't deceiving you... yes, I paired it with leopard. If you haven't figured it out by now, leopard print is almost a neutral these days. You're wearing stripes?--pair it with leopard. Polka dots--pair that sh*t with leopard!
Anyway, last week I'd been sick for DAYS with the flu. I took these pics as soon as I felt "cute" again. I know a lot of you have been wanting to see the hair color in natural light. There it is. It's red. I'm going to add more. I lighten little by little, just so I can control what the hey is going on. All I can say, is I doubt I'll go back to black for a long time.
Hope you're having a fantastic week!

Love your hair here. How did you create the soft waves? Blown out braidout?
ReplyDeleteI think the shoes add a great twist to the look. And they look comfortable!
ReplyDeleteAnon--This is a braidout done on hair that airdried about 75% in one ponytail braid. I then put in about 7-8 braids, and slept in them overnight.
ReplyDeleteLove your whole look here Nik! My daughter is a cancer, and what you described is how she is to the core!!! Really loving your hair too :)
