Right, so. Hair! I need a change. I've been thinking about chopping it off for a while now, but good hair days and compliments always draw me back into bob-love-land. It's still my favorite haircut in the whole wide world, and I'll have it again some day (because I kind of feel like this has become my default style) but it's time for it to go!
I'm thinking of doing it at the beginning of March. New season, new hair, fresh start, right? Honestly I'm just tired of dying it. I want to chop it short and give my natural color a shot at life, so I'll need to grow my roots for a bit.
I blame these darling ladies; the more I look at them, the more I feel the urge to chop!

And my personal crush, the completely ridiculously adorable Carey Mulligan (that's Sally Sparrow to fellow Whovians!):

I've had my hair super short before and loved it, so I'm not nervous about having a weird shaped head or anything. The scary part is seeing how I'll look with my natural color! It's supposedly light brown/dark blonde, but I haven't seen it since.. oh, middle school? Ahh!












Oh wow! I totally didn't recognize Carey Mulligan in that episode. It is hands down my favorite one. Happy to have found another Whovian!
ReplyDeleteI think you'd look amazing with a pixie cut
ReplyDeleteyes yes, the pixie is so cute. wish i could. xo
ReplyDeleteI cut my hair super short, Mia Farrow/Michelle Williams inspired a few years ago...let it grow out a bit, and then chopped it all off again a few months ago. I never feel more feminine than when I have a pixie haircut!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see your hair! A pixie cut will look so darling on you.
ReplyDeletei think the michelle williams cut would be awesome... and goodness i want to see your "natural" color... but i do have to say that you look awesome with black hair :D
ReplyDeleteOh my, that's so funny. My boyfriend and I are currently going through all of the Lost seasons on Netflix Instant Watch! It's ridiculous because on our day off work and class, we didn't even see the light of day. All of a sudden, 14 hours passed and it was pitch black outside! So addicting.
ReplyDeleteYou could definitely pull that haircut off. Can't wait to see it when you take the leap!
Do it, do it, do it! I think you'd look pretty amazing.
ReplyDeleteAnd oh my goodness, I've never really realized how cute Carey Mulligan is. That last photo of her is crazy adorable!
do it! i wish i could! but the shortest i've ever had my hair is bob length, so i am scared i will look like a 10 year old boy or something haha.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had the guts to try short hair. It looks so fresh! I particularly love it on Carey Mulligan--she has just the right face for it.
ReplyDeleteHaha, me and the hubby do exactly the same thing but with 24, we can just sit in our pjs for ages and watch it :) lovely pics,xxx
ReplyDeletei've always wanted to have a hair cut this short but i'm pretty sure it wouldn't work on me, especially since my face is wide. :(
ReplyDeleteMia Wasikowska looks stunning though!
yerrr I just did a post about Jean Seberg in Breathless, her short hair is amazing. I wish I had straight hair sometimes just so I could have a Mia Farrow haircut!
ReplyDeleteYaaay thanks so much for the vote of confidence, guys! ♥ I can't wait!
ReplyDeleteKatie: Right?! She looks so different with short hair, but it's perfect for her face. I saw an interview with her on Craig Ferguson and she didn't seem to like it-- crazy!
Penelope: AHAHA that is EXACTLY what we've been doing!! Thank goodness for Instant Watch. How hilarious that we're both doing it at the same time. Jeremy recently had three days off in a row and we watched it all day long, never moving from the couch, and it was wonderful.
Diane: I so want to be her best friend. Also I was a bit shocked to find out she's dating Shia LaBeouf, they seem very very opposite. But I guess that's the point!
You'd look cute with just about any haircut, so I say go for the pixie! I would in a second if I could pull it off, but I'd be scary. But you'd be adorable! And wouldn't it be the easiest to take care of?
ReplyDeleteI love the hair cut. It looks great. The ladies look very stylish with that hair cut.

i had very long hair for most of my life but finally, through a combination of audreys (hepburn & tautou) i decided to bob my hair. 3 months later i had it cut to a pixie. i loved it & so did everyone else!
ReplyDeleteyou have such nice pert features, it'd look wonderful on you :D
I'm also trying to get my courage to chop all my hair off. Carey Mulligan and Pink were my inspiration. <3 Jackie
