I've Told Every Little Star
I'm the kinda gal who only ever gets her haircut once a year, and it's usually around July/August! As you guys could see, I needed one badly! Now, it's no secret that I enjoy big hair. Bouffants and Beehives make my heart go pitter patter! I don't know what it is... As a child I would hear stories from my mother about her Aunt's having sky high hair! They would use rats, hair pieces, and even rolled up newspaper to make their hair stand tall. Those stories were also paired with one's describing their makeup and clothes! Long full false eyelashes, pink frosty lipstick, sequins, and skin tight skirts! Mini dresses and go-go boots! The epitome of glamour to a very young girl! Now as adult I still strive to be my idea of a glamorous firecracker!
These are a few hairspiration photos! How cute are these looks!
So, no surprise that when I got my hair cut the other day I asked for something that would allow me to create the above looks! This hair has got me feeling like Charlize Theron in "That Thing You Do!" and Camilla Rhodes from "Mulholland Drive". I even caught myself singing Linda Scott's I've Told Every Little Star. I also feel like a mixture between Colleen Corby and Jackie O. I think it's fun, glamorous, huge, and it has a great nostalgic 60's vibe to it! I think I'm gonna have loads of fun dressing up! Plus accessorizing with bows and headbands, how dreamy!
Here are some photos of myself on my first full day of me sporting my new hair as well as a before shot! I feel so glam! I even feel like my mood has been lifted! haha! I do kinda wish I was an icy blonde(darn you, Charlize!), but I love my brown locks!
I feel like I should invest in some Pillbox hats! How adorable would that be?
Here's my favorite scene from "Mulholland Drive". I just really love Melissa George's look in this film! And I love sweet 60's love songs! These two things together only make me charmed!

Baby Doll you're so Sick
I've really been enjoying this baby doll look! After last nights shenanigans I got to thinking; my hair reminded me of these photos of Charlotte Free for the Jeremy Scott S/S 2012 Runway Show! As you can see the teased pigtail look was sported by Miss Free. And paired with that cute hair was this baby doll makeup look! Peach colored cheeks, winged liner, twiggies, a pink glossy lip, and some artificial freckles to finish the whole look off! Precious!
I mean check it out! Cute to boot!
Well here was my take on this fabulous look! I went a bit more pink on the cheeks. I originally just glanced at the look as opposed to really studying it for my recreation. Whoops! But sweeping that with a peach blush is an easy fix! Also, dotting on freckles is a lot harder than it looks!
And before I forget, you guys should check out my beautiful friend, Lizz's blog! She's totally cute and is a fellow Diamond and her blog is to die for! Gawk at all that is pink and cute here!
There was a piece of hair stuck to my face from my makeup brush. Welp! *shrugs shoulders*
Thank you so much for reading babies! Until next time! xx
