A few weeks ago, I posted about 'the new me' I wanted to start working on. 

Since then, I haven't really done anything to stop myself from feeling like the lazy, unmotivated slob that I am. This week, I've started to finally feel like I need to get my butt into gear, and one of the big things I need to tackle is my hair. 

As much as I love the length that my hair has finally reached, it's grown really odd and I feel like my layers are now completely separated. Currently, it's really hard to style, when I do style it, it's only a matter of a couple of hours before it's a mess again, and my split ends are ridiculous. 

Because of this, I've been playing around with the idea to get a few inches chopped off again. Liam thinks I'll regret it, but I honestly feel it'll be better for my hair.

I think I'm leaning towards getting my bottom layer completely cut out. It's the layer that's most damaged, and the most grown out. This means I've been searching for hair-spiration photos for the past few days. 

I'm definitely loving the Alexa Chung long bob and I really think that's something I'll end up with. 

Colour-wise, you guys know me. I can't stay one colour for long. Only difference is this time, I really don't want to do anything too drastic. 

I've avoided ombre for so long, mainly because my hair has never seemed the right length. But, looking at the above photos, I now really want to do it. Ok, it may be a dying trend (seriously, no pun intended,) but I am in love with the subtlety of these tresses on Emily Blunt and Shenae Grimes. 

This is why I need you guys. 

As much as I love the styles and colours above, I'd really like for you to comment with your suggestions below. Maybe link a photo or two. 

I'm such an indecisive person and always I seem to get stuck in a rut when trying to choose something new. 

Also, if you're reading this from somewhere around the Otley/Ilkley/Guiseley/Leeds area, can you suggest any good hair salons? I hate to say it, but I've not had my hair cut in a salon for nearly three years! Appalling. 

I may be a little penniless right now, but my plan is to ask for the new do for Christmas, so as you can imagine. I'd love to have a rough idea what I'm doing with it by then.

Keep your eyes peeled for a few more posts I'm working on. 

Other things I need to tackle is fitness, wardrobe and skin. Mine's been breaking out like crazy recently!

DIY - Create a bit of festival chic for cheap. blog | chairty shop | cheap | chic | customise | cut | dit | do it yourself | dye | fabric | festival | fringe | paint | tank top | whenflowersfall fashion

Hi my loves!I thought it was time to share another little DIY with you. This time it's the turn of 'how to turn a t-shirt into a tank top'. 
1. Make sure to lie your shirt on a flat surface. Line up the seams and cut off the sleeves.2. To make sure that you don't cut the front too long, put your shirt on and use a pin to mark how low you want it to be. You can also pin how wide you want the straps to be at this point.3. After taking the shirt off again, cut in a curve from the top of the shoulder, past the strap tip and down to the lowest pin.4. To make sure the front of your shirt is symmetrical, once you get to the lowest pin, fold over the material and follow that line for the other side. 5. For the back, you only want to cut below the seam of the original seam. If you cut too much lower, you could risk having a very loose, off the shoulder tank top.6. From this point on, your options are endless. I used some Dylon fabric paint and a handmade cat logo to personalise mine, but you can do absolutely what ever you like to it. I actually it would be great to fringe the bottom for the last step. Just a little bit of festival chic for cheap. 
If you do this tutorial, make sure to link me to a picture below! I would love to see what you guys come up with!! 

My Mini Holiday At Home aeroplane | colour | cut | hair | healthy eating | highlights | holiday | home | park | river | summer | sunset | sunshine | swan | when flowers fall | whenflowersfall

Hi Lovelies!

You've probably all heard me having a little moan on twitter about being desperate for a holiday. Well, for the past three days, I've been on one, at home!

One of my best buddies came to visit and we indulged in doing lots of nothing, sitting in the sun in various park by various rivers, and eating lots of good food. 

It's just what I needed!! I know I didn't get that great feeling of being away from home, but I most certainly felt a lot more relaxed compared to normal. It was actually really nice not to have to think about blog posts for a couple of days, (not that I didn't miss it,) but just having some girly time was much needed.

Luckily, Leanne's a hairdresser and she kindly chopped my hair and got rid of my hideous rootage too, so after my lovely holiday at home I'm back to dedicating my time to you lovely people and I'm feeling great!

Today I'm revamping the layout and tidying some things up, but you can expect some good posts in the near future, I may also have some news soon, just keep all of your fingers crossed for me!
