she BANGS

to cut or not to cut? i say, NOT. how about clip-on bangs instead?
yes, all the gals below are super stunning with their fringe, but the thought of cutting my hair makes me cringe.

* i think sophia is planning on purchasing some faux bangs. we'll be sure to post a before-and-after if she does...but if any of YOU have them, i'd love to see how it looks on. cutting off my hair reminds me of the traumatizing time i cut 8 inches off just because i wanted to look different for my senior class photo. BIGGEST.MISTAKE.OF.MY.LIFE. so no, i will NOT be sporting some fringe anytime soon. 

thanks for listening.

J'AIME MON HERMES CARRE

I recently started obsessing over the new HERMéS blog -- J'AIME MON CARRé (I LOVE MY SCARF).

A way to take the classique Hermés scarf out into the younger masses, this little media stunt is a beacon of inspiration on how to wear the ubiquitous scarf -- and beautifully demonstrated by gorgeous girls from LONDON, PARIS, NEW YORK, & TOKYO. click around and get some ideas; and if you're confused on how each scarf was knotted, there's the CARTES á NOUER (KNOTTING CARDS) that illustrate step-by-step on exactly how to achieve the look. 

totally inspired -- I shall now dig through my mum's Hermés scarf archive and try out some of these knots.

have fun!

HAIR TODAY, BLOND TMRW

no, i am NOT going blonde, but the thought of it is a bit intriguing. lately i've been in a hair funk. given that i am very low maintenance when it comes to 'dos, i can't help but wonder what it'd be like if i were to dip-dye my locks like rumi or rachel, or apply pink streaks like dree, or maybe even go for (yet another) perm.

i'm going to let these thoughts simmer for a few days. until then, high top buns and fishtail braids will do the trick.
