A hair change

If you watched the Golden Globes last week, like Nanny and my mom and I did, I'm sure you felt the same way as I did about the dresses.  Kind of underwhelming right?  Sure, there were some gorgeous ones but there were also plenty of misses.  And, a bunch of boring ones.... at least in my opinion.  

Here are my favorites:

 Claire Danes - probably my favorite.  And the back was stunning.


 Emma Stone - not sure how I felt about that bird on the belt... but the dress is gorgeous

Shailene Woodley (from the Descendants) - so pretty and age appropriate 

 Rachel Evan Woods - I love this dress even though it's sort of weird

 Kate Beckinsale - so simple

Now.... for my "what were they thinking" choices:

 Amanda Peet - Really?  It looks like curtains

 Kelly Osborne - I'm not even sure what to say about this one

 Lea Michele - She looks like Spiderman in that one movie where he is bad... that weird black goop

 Oh Jessica Biel - I love you, but this dress breaks me heart.  She looked like she had three boobs

I bet right about now you are wondering why I titled this post "A hair change".  I don't blame you!  When I was in high school and college, I colored my hair A LOT.  I guess I felt like since I couldn't do much drastically with the cut, the color was a way I could keep mixing it up.  It also helped that my friend was my stylist so she almost always did it for free.

Then I moved out to DC, got a job, had to pay for my hair cuts (what?) and realized that really... the maintenance of coloring my hair was so not worth the money.  So I stopped.  It's been 5 years since the last time I colored my hair.  And really, I like my natural hair color.  But after watching the Golden Globes, I could not stop obsessing about Jessica Biel's hair color.


Look at it - so rich and amazing.  So right away, I saved a photo to my computer and messaged my stylist on facebook (we are friends okay).  I asked her if this color was totally out of the question for me.  She said no, actually, that it would look really nice and to schedule an appointment when I wanted.  Since I haven't gotten my hair cut since July (I actually can't believe that either now that it's written down), I'm way past due for a hair cut.  Now the issue is just getting my butt in there and paying the money to get it done.
