OOTD: Am I Charlotte Free Yet? / Pink Hair, Fox Nails & Dixi Rings

06 May, 2012



Top: D.I.Y. // Skirt: Primark (old), £10 // Boots: H&M, £29.99 // Rings: c/o Dixi*, H! by Henry Holland & Giveaway win // Nails: Topshop 'Big Smoke' & 'Offbeat' // Nail Stickers: JanChristie via eBay, £2

I've wondered what a pink dip-dye would look like on my hair for a while. I wasn't entirely sure it would work with ginger hair, but it looks alot better than I imagined! Fear not though, for it is not permanent. My curiosity simply got the better of me and I purchased one of those cheap spray-in colours from Superdrug before I took the plunge with a more permanent colour. I must admit I'm now very tempted to make it permanent as if you squint and maybe look from distance (a considerable distance) I could just be Abbey Lee Kershaw in her pink hair days! Maybe, just maybe...

You may already know but the wonderful Dixi finally relaunched today with hundreds of new items, including these gold above knuckle rings they kindly sent me. Dixi is one of my favourite online shops as it stocks modern and vintage clothing so you can find some one-off gems that no one else will own! Don't even get me started on their gorgeous jewellery collection! As you may have also noticed I'm sporting fox nail art. Not looking too shabby for a nail art newbie like me. The stickers were from a seller on eBay who stocks tons of animal stickers from Pugs to ferrets to toads! The obvious choice for me was a fox, but I'm thinking I may have to invest in some Husky stickers soon!

This is a pretty old outfit (minus the boots), in fact I wore the exact same to Reading Festival two years ago but with a pair of wellies. Embarrassing. The top was originally my boyfriend's that he kindly gave up to me to cut into a crop top. The skirt is probably one of the girliest things I own, hence the reason I've toughened it up with the crop top. The "ugly pretty" look is one of my favourites by dressing down a pretty, feminine dress or skirt with something a bit grungier. Thank you for all of your recommendations on tripods, I ended up ordering this one from ASDA for a pretty decent price! Hopefully, this one will last a little longer than 3 days...
