In need of a change

So, new fringe is probably extremely anticlimactic to all of you, but it's amazing what a difference even a little change can make to your whole outlook. Frankly, I don't miss my forehead:
Button-up: American Apparel
Jeggings: J.Crew Sale ($20)
Bracelet c/o Modcloth
Vintage Manolo Kitten Heels: Swapped!
So last Saturday I went to the salon Chris's step-mom owns to get my eyebrows done, and walked out with bangs! I had been thinking about it for a long time, I needed a change but didn't necessarily want to cut any length off, bangs are perfect for that. I used to be so carefree about my hair and would change it constantly, but it became harder and harder to do anything drastic as it got longer. I really love the end result, I'm still re-learning how to style them (I was growing out a similar style when i started Orchid Grey), but i think they look nice.

This is the kind of outfit I would wear everyday if I worked from home, comfy classic. I had the day off today and unfortunately spent most of it on the internet, which I didn't intend to do. It's too easy to get wrapped up blog-land! Anyways, I went with an oversize denim button-up and easy jean-leggings. To fancy it up a bit, I added one of most amazing swap finds yet: a pair of vintage two-tone Manolo Blahnik kitten heels. I. Love. Them. This is a perfect example of why I don't write commentary on the Spring or Fall collections, two months ago I found the kitten heel trend abhorrent, aaaaand now I'm wearing some, lesson learned (or not learned because I didn't say anything!). My tastes change constantly. You probably won't find me buying tons of kitten heels, but I like the length they add to my legs.
I'm so happy it's almost the weekend, it's been a really rough week and I just want to spend it how I usually do: at home. I'm so exciting, aren't I?

Goodnight! Don't forget to enter the giveaway!
