So, as you can see in these pictures the ends of my hair are a new color. I wanted mermaid hair, so I dyed them blue at home...however, I didn't want to damage my hair so I didn't use bleach and I used RAW dye. The result is the blue is quite subtly blue and mostly just looks black from a distance. I knew it wouldn't be exactly how I wanted it without bleach, but I had hoped it would look blue! Quite disappointing! However, I'm still excited I did it at all and I might make the bleach plunge soon...afterall my hair is long enough I can just cut off the ends.
In other news, the weekend was a total pumpkin explosion! We ate pumpkin in every possible form: baked pumpkin seeds, pumpkin cookies, chocolate chip pumpkin bread, pumpkin pie...well you get the idea. We even carved up a few pumpkins and I finally went to a little pumpkin patch and stand, which of course meant getting a few obligatory photos.

Welcome to my little blog that blends a bit of nature, fashion, wanderings, and books in this dusty corner of the Internet. I hope you find it a moment of quiet in the wild today.

ReplyDeleteLoving the blue ends on your hair! I have been wanting to do turquoise but everyone is saying no. I just may ignore them and do it though...
ReplyDeleteUr hair is such a nice coulour :)
ReplyDeleteYou can hardly notice the hair color change, but it looks nice. :) I ADORE your skirt. :)

ReplyDeleteLove the photos, so much autumn goodness (and great job with the skirt> pumpkin match)!
ReplyDeleteReally love the dipped ends - do you have any photos of your actual blue hair? That would be awesome.
Having a Net a Porter giveaway on my blog! Hope you can stop by :)

Beautiful pictures, and I love what you did to your hair, it looks really good!
ReplyDeleteyour hair looks great! so subtle yet striking.
ReplyDeleteI like your attitude towards hair - it grows back, so what does it matter? Interesting choice, I think it was a change no one would have guess but it looks cool.
ReplyDeleteLove the spewing pumpkin.. And you guys look cute in your similar shirts!

It looks like you're cradling a Rouge vif d'Etampes pumpkin. That's the one used for Cinderella's coach. Just throwing some plant info out there. :-)
ReplyDeletelove the colour coordination to the pumpkin ;-)
ReplyDeleteOoo I love your skirt! Is it leather? Adorable :0) I always love your blog, you are very stylish.

Haha, I was just about to ask whether you matched eachother on purpose. Love the skirt, it's pumkin-crazy!
ReplyDeleteI always love that skirt. No matter what you pair with it. What a wonderful find =)
ReplyDeletelol I did the same (not wanting to damage my hair with bleach) I tried dying it blonde over dark brown hairdye without bleaching it. The result was bright orange hair because of my natural red tones. I have it dark brown again now and it will stay that way... I'm afraid of bleaching it.
ReplyDeleteI love the hair, but it looks almost too subtle to see in these photos. I went with bright electric teal streaks one year that faded to a sea green, then the next year, I dyed the front half of my head deep electric royal blue which faded to purple.
ReplyDeleteOnce that was over, I was done dyeing my hair. It stained the tub too much.
Wondering what you wore for Halloween?
XX.
Mae Lu, @ thereafterish.
I like your hair a lot! I recently did the ombre hair trend. I bleached the ends of my hair blonde and it gradually fades up into a light brown color. I love it :)
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks fabulous! And a lovely fall outfit too!
