It feels like it's been such a long time since, I did an outfit post! Usually my boyfriend takes my pictures but he was away for a week, back, then away again so I haven't had much chance to do any. In my new job I am lucky enough to be able to be given uniform, so for my first piece I picked this gorgeous black and white striped dress, i've wanted one for ages and have seen quite a few but loved the little black collar on this one. I can wear it on it's own like this or team it with a jumper so the collar can poke out the top! As you can see my blue hair is starting to fade, it's more of a pastel shade now which is nice but I am looking forward to having my silver hair back so I can start to wear all the blue things I seem to have bought lately (blue hair and blue clothes is not a good look for me!)

In other news I went to see Jessie Ware last week; she was incredible and came across so well, I would watch her again without a thought! This week i'm going to the Bradley Wiggins launch in the Bristol Fred Perry tomorrow night so will be sure to take my camera along! If you are a Fred Perry fan and live in a city with your own store then make sure you head down tomorrow night as it is an event thats happening across the country! Today marks the beginning of Bristol Fashion Week and I feel really lucky to be involved in a live blogging event which is happening during one of the shows, if you're a Bristol blogger whose also going then please get in touch as I am currently going alone and would love to meet up with someone for a drink while i'm there!

I also wanted to quickly say as i'm sure you're all aware GFC is going and i'm so sad that it means I might lose some of you as followers :( I have a bloglovin account which is going to be the best way to follow from now on so here is my link and if you currently follow on GFC please follow on bloglovin instead (that way you can continue to see my ever changing hair colour and general ranting!) I've heard that there is going to be a way you can import all of the blogs you follow on GFC into bloglovin so if anyone has any info on this please let me know, i'm gonna be gutted if I end up losing any of the blogs I follow!

Blue Rinse



As some of you may remember, back in October when I first started my blog I dyed my hair Lilac. I absolutely loved it but it went a bit patchy and didn't last that long, so last night I randomly decided I wanted to dye my hair blue. Inspired by 90s grunge Gwen, I bought a 'Crazy Colour' bottle in 'Bubblegum Blue' and went for it this afternoon. I can't recommend the 'Crazy Colour' range enough, they do a huge variety and several versions of each colour from bright royal blue right down to pastel bubblegum blue. There's no peroxide in the formula so it's safe to do by yourself and lasts roughly 4-6 washes- perfect! I absolutely love this colour, i've done purple and pink before but I think this might be my favourite so far :) I was going to do a little tutorial on how to use it but it is so easy I didn't think there was much point. All you do is wash your hair with shampoo, towel dry and then apply! There is a lot of dye in the bottle so you don't need to worry about your hair length, just apply evenly, leave on for 15-30 minutes and there you go! If you have bleached blonde hair like mine, it lasts about 2-3 weeks so is great for a big night out, or a festival because after a few washes your hair just fades back to normal.

As for my outfit today, it's pretty simple as i've had a day off; i'm wearing a vintage oversized white shirt and lace trimmed black cycle shorts with my black converse. I got involved with helping to promote a Bristol vintage fair on the weekend and bought 5 lovely items all for £45! I have planned a blog post to show you guys my purchases which I will post tomorrow. Hope you like my hair, let me know what you think...
