Going Postal

I stopped at the post office today to grab a change of address form, and shortly after I get several pictures from my husband of Waikiki beach. I'm freaking out over here! Why does it feel worse than waiting for Christmas?! TGIF!!

Color Graphics Lacquer

Last week I changed my blonde hair to periwinkle. Iv'e simply adored it, but one thing about any fashion color put over blonde hair, is it tends to fade pretty quickly. 

Luckily for me, Matrix just came out with new lacquers, one being Light Indigo. I agreed to be my mom's guinea pig to test the new shade out. I think it turned out beautifully, and the good news about it being a little darker is, even if it does fade, it should be just about the perfect hue for me! Like it?

The City By The Bay

San Francisco is such a fun city! The last time I went was 4 years ago. It wasn't long enough then, and it wasn't long enough this time either. 

The morning after I arrived there started out to be a beautiful day. Glorious sunshine and about 80°. My that changed quickly! By 6pm it was no more than 65° with some pretty gusty winds. Although this made walking the city a bit unpleasant, I was able to find a bit of humor in it with my mom, as we had encountered various struggles along our trip. After all, if you don't laugh, you'll cry!

Trying to avoid the cold, we made sure to stop in as many shops as possible. Wonton soup hit the spot for us in Chinatown, and I found a fabulously cozy sweater at Lululemon to keep me from loosing it on our way back to our hotel. Dare I mention we bought 5 gourmet cupcakes and devoured every one of them once we got to our room?!

I adore what I wore for the 80° day! The 65° day? Not so much! Do you like it?

#FASHIONCODE

Last week while I was in San Francisco, I decided to pop into Zara. In the store I came across this clutch with #FASHIONCODE printed on it. I came to the conclusion that they must be following our blog! There was no choice but to purchase it!

A couple days later when I got home, my husband and I went out for a date. I made sure to incorporate my new clutch in with my look. What do you think? Are you following our fashion code? If not, click that Bloglovin' button and start now! You can also follow us on Facebook here.

Green With Envy

A few weeks ago, I road tripped to Cali. It was so much fun, and I have much more to share from my trip! 

There were a couple of nights that I spent just outside San Fran, and rode the BART into the city. On my ride in, a girl got on and sat next to me. She had jungle green hair. I looked and her and said, "Your hair is amazing!" She wasn't thoroughly convinced as she had just gotten it done the day before, and was still adjusting to it. I insisted to her that it was and we parted ways. 

Since then I haven't been able to get her hair out of my head, so I decided it was time for me to indulge as well! After all, I've never had green hair!

Taking in consideration the health of my hair and the happiness of my husband, I decided not to bleach my hair out entirely it before I put the green on. Instead, I decided just to put the green over the top of the brown I already had. I knew this way it would be more subtle, but still give me the pop of green that I desired. I'm loving it! What do you think? Would you try a fun color in your hair?
