Urban Glitter

Welcome to my new pastel pink hair. I've had pastel pink hair on and off now since 2009 and also dabbled in the colour as a teen (well that and blue, purple, green and even canary yellow). I've never been 100% happy with the pastel pink results which is why its never been a long term look for me. I've tried most of the dyes and toners on the market but never Directions so after reading lots of positive reviews and twitter comments on the brand I decided to take the plunge and try them out and I'm so happy that I did. The colour is exactly what I was after, perfectly pastel pink and sufficiently Barbie like. To get the perfect colour I used Directions Carnation Pink and mixed it with conditioner until I had the pastel shade I wanted. The other fabulous thing is you don't need to use much of the dye so it will last a long time and save me money, yay!

I really wanted to share with you my new handmade kawaii decoden phone cover complete with deco cream, cupcake charms and glitter. My friend Carla from Messy Carla (who also took the outfit photos in this post) helped with piping the acrylic cream and I'm so happy with the results. No one makes cute phone covers for my LG Prada phone, the only downside to having an android phone I reckon.

I love the little details in the watch even the Lacoste logo and crocodile branding are cute.

  10. Your pink hair is amazing! I still didn't dare to try out to get mine pink, but your look is convincing... I love the glasses too, I am after lilac glasses for some time, can't believe they are this cheap. Shame I don't life in Australia, otherwise I would ask you if we could have cake together again and again and of course I would enter this contest to win the pretty watch ;-) Have a wonderful day gorgeous! Love, Sara xx

  11. That shirt has been sitting in my 'saved' folder on ASOS for awhile now, I LOVE it! I'm not a fan of directions, but I think it's mainly because I like my hair quite vibrant. It's great for pastels. (I buy mine on ebay for around $5 including shipping from the UK)

    Yet again, I LOVE everything about this outfit! This year i'm trying to be more 'me' and not dress for everyone else. I've found as i've grown older i've toned myself done a lot, I want to be more creative again. Thank you for being an inspiration!

  15. Todo me encanta, los colores, el labial, el estampado de la falda, los accesorios, las lentejuelas, el bolso. Todo es fabuloso. Gracias por compartir. Después de unas largas pero maravillosas vacaciones estoy de vuelta y quiero compartir contigo mis dos últimos shootings Magdala y Again Vanessa, muévete a verlos. Besos y besos.
