bangs and baskets

I went back to Toni & Guy Academy today to get some more fringe. I'm still getting used to the bangs, but I like that it makes my cut look softer. Today's shoot is simple and lounge-worthy. My skinny J Brand jeans are easy to run around and do errands, and the H&M tees are my favorite things to wear period these days. I need to grab a few more because I'm wearing these to death. Necklaces are a combination of Forever 21 and travel jewelry.

I got this Easter basket from my second mom. I gave away some of my Peeps and most of my jelly beans...but the Reeses and Cadbury eggs are all mine!!!  I love that spring is here, but I hate that everyone is on break!!! I'm not in school anymore, so the streets are crowded on days when they should not be! I had a frustrating day trying to get things done, and eventually gave up to veg and read at home. Since I can't find the Hunger Games series anywhere, I got my ereader out and downloaded the books to it.

It's here! It's here!!! The UPS guy knew there was something fun in the package the minute I opened the door. My new 60D is here!!! I put the 50mm lens in, charged the battery, and waited anxiously til it was fully charged. As soon as the green light came on, I ran to my brother and made him take the first photos of my outfit today. I'm trying out the smaller curls. It was too poofy, so i let it sit without any hairspray until it went down a bit. I think I'll get my shorter bangs tomorrow!

getting my hair cut: before

I'm getting my hair cut. Not a lot. I just haven't had it cut since this time last year. The last time, I did something drastic and chopped off 8 inches. It's grown back. This time, I think I want some long side swept bangs, and tons of layers to lighten the weight a bit. Using a handful of shampoo each time I shower is getting too expensive. I'll post the after pics in a bit.
