I've always said that January is one of my least favorite months of the year, with everything being quite grey and dreary on the East Coast and the temperatures making it almost impossible to want to (or even care to) look even remotely fashionable.
After being sick with the stomach flu + a cold for over a week (and living in pajamas), I was itching to dress up a little for a get together with some friends. I went all out in the color department, although I promise, I did wear snow boots while trekking along the snow outside.

On a completely different subject, recently I worked on an amazing project with Lancome, which I'll share with you all in a few weeks. In the meantime, here's a little teaser.

LOVE THAT LIPSTICK! and of course the look! duh! lol
ReplyDeleteOk, those shoes are adorable.
ReplyDeleteHi Helena,
ReplyDeleteLongtime lurker fan of your blog. I feel so silly for asking this, and I know I'm a bit belated, because you just did a beauty post, but your hair always looks so natural, and I was wondering what you use on your roots?
Thanks!
Brynna
@Brynna, thank you!! I use Garnier Extra Light Natural Blonde (#100) on my roots every 3-4 weeks. I used to use a salon formula rather than a box, but I was liking the results from this color so much better. I only do my roots (by myself) and then 2-3x a year I get a few highlights and also get it washed with a toner. Hope that helps!
ReplyDeleteOh, also wanted to add - i just did my roots in these images & I never love how they first look. Hair always looks better after a wash.
ReplyDeleteabsolutely adore the stripes and love the shoes and gloves to bring the whole look together!! I have the same chain link bracelet from jcrew and its one of my favorite pieces! great post!
