So this is my last what I wore with ombre hair….ahhhh, it was fun while it lasted.
It wasn’t exactly that I didn’t love it anymore, as much as it was about needing something new.
I have been feeling SO much better, anxiety wise, and I figured what better way to celebrate then with having sunshine all the way up to my roots?!?

If you follow me on Instagram, then you already saw the new ‘do….
if not, I’ll post pictures here soon.

I guess Jimmy was a tad confused when I got home from the hair salon.

“I thought you were going totally blonde?  It doesn’t look that much different to me,”
he said after I FINALLY asked him what he thought…
AN HOUR after I’d been home!

How long must a girl wait for a compliment around here???

Apparently, TOTALLY blonde to him meant Hugh Hefners’ girlfriends kind of blonde.
Figures.

After 10 years, we’re STILL working on the communication thing.
sigh.

On a FASHION POST note…..

Now.
About those leggings.
So, originally I bought them simply to work out in.
I love having fun leggings to wear during my Tracy sessions, well…because Tracy always has cute leggings and it just seems more fun when you dress like her.

But, then I started seeing cute animal print skinny jeans (target, yum!), and I decided I needed to try out the trend.
AND I LOVED IT.
Other people?
Ummmm, I’m still not so sure they were on board.

I noticed some looks, whispers, and then looks again while at church.
{has no one ever seen tiger legs at church before?}

And then later at Sprouts, two ladies were looking at me NOT so discreetly, then whispering, and then looking and then whispering again when they saw me on the next aisle.
{no sprouts lovers, it’s not REAL tiger, don’t throw paint!}

It was then that I started getting a complex.
It couldn’t be the leggings….
I wondered if maybe there was toilet paper coming out the back of my dress….or on my shoe, or perhaps there was something on my face….
OR!
Maybe they recognized me from my blog????
Not likely.

I think it was the leggings.

Sigh.

Some people just don’t *get* fashion.
{perhaps it’s me?}

In any case, I’ve never been one to care….and so I will wear them again….
and when people whisper,
I will just smile and say a proper thanks.

Or maybe just offer an autograph.
I guess it’s just time for me accept that it’s come to that.
*kidding*

Oh!
Happy Valentines Day!!!
I heart you.

  1. It certainly wasn’t the leggings.  Surely they were whispering about how cute and fashionable you are.  

  2. Maybe…..or……it was the leggings. =) xoxo

  3. Lame.  People are ridiculous.  In the back of their heads, they were all, “damn… I wish I could wear animal print leggings.”  

    See what I did there?  I said “they were all…”  That is such a West Coast thing.  It’s like I’m THERE.  

  4. girl. i just live you. fo reals yo.

  5. Love the dress, love the leggings, love the boots! 

  6. thanks Katie!!!! makes me feel a little more confident to wear it again. =)

    I love this outfit! Super cute tights! I’m a big fan of animal print and what a great way to wear it. 🙂

  8. LEAH!!!! You commented! =) I’ll have to fill you in on who was whispering. ha ha!

  9. People are just jealous. You look FaBuLouS and they knew it…

  10. hahaha….i love you guys. =)

    The leggings??? They’re awesome. Truly. I clicked into the post and was all, “Oh… my… dear… ME! LOVE!!! I totally need to do that.” And now I will copy you. And the Target animal print jeans? I want! I need! Alas, I will wait for a sale. Or Goodwill.  =^)

  12. Angela, we are twinsies in every way. Well, except for shoulder pads….but it works out well, because I’ll rip them out and give them to you, and that is true friendship.

    And the only reason I went with the leggings rather than the jeans, is more so because of the elastic waistband and the stretch. This is all good because of winter weight. =) And I like to carry that around with me through the winter. It keeps me warmer that way.
    xoxo

  13. Summer, I really think they wanted your autograph.  You should have just given it to them!!!

    I love the leggings.  Seriously.  I have some leopard print tights that I *almost* wore to work today.  But didn’t.  I should spare my coworkers a heart attack.  But NOT the people at church.

    xoxo

  14. Ooooh, I double dog dare you to wear them to church!!!!
