slouch

winter finally remembered it is JANUARY, even in southern california, and has decided to half-heartedly come back into the scene. walking to class yesterday i froze.my.butt.off. even in jeans and a button-down so today i am drawing some inspiration from the LF tumblr and pairing a whimsical maxi skirt with a grandma headband/scarf/blanket and a huge coat. i am telling you...i am into this slouchy messy look...if only i could find a properly structured handbag...ahhhem.

ps how COOL is this hair thing? i love. xx

rooster tails

feathers: 19 blue - sweater: wildfox

so very sorry for the lack of actual dialect in my most recent posts, but now that i am home in manhattan beach i finally have some time to sit and think!

HOW COOL ARE THESE?!?! after seeing my wonderful hair dresser melissa with two gorgeous feathers in her hair i went on a quest and found a LOCAL salon that did them!! (thank you brittany koegel) yesterday morning i arrived at 19 blue to get these rooster feather extensions put in.  tawni did an amazing job that took about 15 minutes and $45.  i was shocked and i am absolutely hooked.

she used some sort of crimping ring to secure each little grouping to a tiny group of hair and then poof!  the final result is not given justice in these pictures - in real life they move and flow like natural hair and can be washed and blow dried/curled/straightened.  they are supposed to stay for a longgg time so im crossing my fingers they will survive the ski season!!
