Green Plaid Girl

This lovely little plaid ruffle top has been in the sew pile for months because it needed...a button. Yep. Just needed ONE button and it took a half of a year for me to complete that task. Terrible. Just terrible. 

My second terrible award goes to these pants. I think... I am over them. The crotch is just...weird! I'm already having to wear a belt with them because they don't fit correctly in the waist. Come to think of it they never really sit right and I end up just looking boxy in them. Bye Bye pants!

I finally got around to taking the plunge into adding some highlights to my hair. I can't say I am completely happy. Although, I thought I was in the salon. Has that ever happened to you? You love it when they whirl you around in the chair and you look in the mirror. "It's great! I love it!" I say. Then I get home and I start second guessing it. I'm looking at it in the lighting in my bedroom and saying hmmm.... Well, that is what I'm doing. I feel they are a bit too light. I really wanted a honey caramel kind of look to them. Here's an extreeeeeeeme close up!

 Nothing horrible or out of the ordinary. Just not how I had it pictured in my head. But hey, that's hard to do. I didn't explain it well enough or she thought my reaction of I LOVE IT was an indicator of my happiness! LOL. I was happy....I think...Maybe...It's me - too finicky I guess! I have been cutting my own hair so it was good to have someone clean it up a bit. I have a goal to grow my layers out so she helped them lay a little bit better than what I had accomplished. I should have had some texturizing shears, really. But I'm going to grow it out so my hair cutting/layering episodes should soon just turn into a simple trim.
