2013 has arrived

2013 – A new year to start over and to start something new. I’m finally back from a three week holiday that, unfortunately, excluded internet. It has been one of my favourite summer holidays to date. The blazing hot sun in my face, the icy cold sea water on my skin and the feeling of everlasting sand underneath my feet: the pure definition of summer.

Now it’s time to get back to business, the business of blogging and keeping you updated regularly, tastefully, and fashionably.  To start off with 2013, I posted a notification on my facebook page for any lovely fashionista out there who has decided to rock the ombre trend. With the response I got through photos, this post is basically all about you.

Firstly, we all know what ombre or dip dye is by this time - the tips of your hair to differentiate in a lighter or darker tone, or a completely different colour. Do it yourself, or book an appointment at the salon, whatever works for you. Here’s a little tip to make it look natural – blend it in. If you want the different layers of colour the stand out, try dyeing the tips in such a manner so that the difference can be seen from a mile away. It’s all about what you want! Unfortunately for me, school starts within two weeks or so, which means its back to one colour.

Just don’t wash your hair 3 hours later after the dye has been completed. I did this. And I regret doing this, as my purple tips washed out within a week. 

oh, and thanks to the lovely ladies who sent me some pictures <3
