Fashion: It’s not you, it’s all about me.

Posted 04/30/2009 by Allison in Fashion \ 7 comments

I'm not exactly sure when my love for fashion started. My mom said that when I was six I asked her why dad always took me shopping at Bloomingdale's and Nordstrom's and she just took me to TJ Maxx. I tend to lean more toward the trendy side of fashion for myself; I like to change my look often, so the trendy things I bargain hunt for. I have staples like my David Kahn jeans and Ugg boots that I don't mind paying more for, but in general, I am an "on-sale" kind of girl.

In fact, these past few weeks have been all about me.  And I’m tired of hearing me talk about me.  Sooooo, for what it’s worth, here are the before the bottle brown and after the bottle brown pics.  And, I promise next week, it’s all about you.

P.S.  The blonde me was taken by a professional photgrapher…the brunette me was taken by my four year old.  Don’t let the picture quality sway your vote!

we heart your comments!

    Vote for Brunette

  2. Brunette-it is so chic.

  3. Yay!! I love seeing these pics!
    You look great either way – but I’d vote for brunette because it’s budget friendly (which is why you’re doing this, correct??) AND it’s a change for you. Change is good sometimes!

  4. I vote for blond, but you really shouldn’t listen to me. I tried economy brown and cried until there was room made in the budget for my highlights. (Dramatic? Yes. True? Sadly, yes.)You look lovely both ways!

  5. I love the new look! Embrace being a brunette- you have no idea much power you can hold!

    You all are awesome! I just laughed out loud that there are actually people out there that will take the time to comment on my crazy hair issues.

    I’m settling into my new life as a brunette more everyday and think that while I’m here, I’ll stay for awhile. It’s kind of fun. I’ve had several people walk right past and not even recognize me. Shakin’ things up!

    Thanks for all of your input. You all make me feel normal….
