What On A Wednesday #2

First off...

How did that week go by so fast?? Seriously, I'm shocked. I know time always flies when you're busy but this is not ok. 

Anywho, since my last WOAW post, I've had work and gone back to interning after a week off. So far this week has been pretty awesome and as you can see in this not so brill iphone picture I dip dyed my clip-in.

I've had the dye kit (L'Oreal Wild Ombre) since my 21st (last December!) but have just never gotten round to it. Because I relaxed my hair, I wouldn't dare dye it for fear of it falling out in clumps immediately, but clip-ins? Eh, why the heck not. 

To get the right height for the ombre effect, I put the clip-in in to see at what length my hair stops and it's all extension as this is where I would want it the lightest so the rest blended better. The clip-in is around 2 and a half inches longer than my hair. I left the dye on for roughly 35 mins but checked every 5 minutes when it had been in for 20. 

I'm so happy with how it turned out, it makes a nice change.

In other news, I bought my first dictaphone. Look at me trying to be a proper journalist and that.

What On A Wednesday #1

So, this is something new for the ol’ blog. I really have been meaning to start a weekly feature-y thingy for so long but had no idea what to do, but eventually I came up with something and alas What On A Wednesday was born.

What is What On A Wednesday? I hear you mutter. Well it’s my chance to talk about something that’s happened, I’ve tried, maybe something that’s changed, anything really, a sort of weekly catch-up if you will. A mid-week musing.

So I’m slightly ill right now as I type, but up ‘til now I’ve been embracing the autumnal turn the weather has taken. And this has been very apparent in the return of berry lips. The combo I have on in these pictures is a mixture of Topshop Lip crayon in Suspect and a slick of MAC’s Deep Attraction. 

Also in the past week I have been loving my clip-in hair. While I am trying to stay clear of the weave situation after it damaged my hair reaaaaal bad, now that my hair is at a length that I’m relatively happy with I thought I’d try a clip-in now and again. In the above pictures I’m wearing one weft of remy hair that I cut to blend in with my hair length and sewed the clips on to myself (way cheaper then buying pre-clipped pieces). Clipping in the weft means that there’s less damage to my actual hair because I can take it out so there’s less strain on that section of hair then if it was sewn in.

This week I have the week off of interning so I’m kind of just chilling like a villain, these impromptu showers are making it difficult to take any outfit pics! #bloggerprobs.
