Ombré hair and blogger questionnaire

So I did it, I took the ombré plunge!! I was excited but very nervous because I've seen it go terribly wrong on some girls. For about a week before my appointment I discussed with my stylist what I wanted, I showed her a few pictures so we were on the same page. I wanted a subtle ombré effect nothing too harsh, and done with highlights not my whole ends looking like where dipped in bleach. shout out to Kara Peach at Monroe's because she nailed it!
My inspiration
Before with highlights, after soft ombre
that's about all I have to share lol I know my hair is super vital Info. I found a fashion/beauty blogger questionnaire that I thought would help my readers get my style a little more. So here it is:

How old are you? 





25. 26 this may, though this weekend I was told I look 15. I hate that.

Please describe your style in fashion and makeup. I would consider my style classic preppy with a trendy twist. For makeup I love a glam look with a neutral color pallet. 

Describe your outfit your wearing today.
pretty simple. A cream sweater with forest green stripes, dark wash jeans, short flat booties, some gold wrist candy, and mixed a delicate and statement necklace. 

What makeup are you wearing?
To be honest most of the day I didn't wear any. As much as I have a love for makeup a lot of days I like to go au natural. Later on I added on Bobbi brown color corrector concealer under my eyes, make up forever powder, revlon highlighting palette in bronze glow on my cheeks, on my eye I did one coat of maybelline falsies and a thin winged liner on top. That's it pretty simple Saturday. 

Describe your favorite shoes and handbag whether you own them or not. 
My absolute favorite purse of the moment is hands down the celine luggage tote! If only I had a few thousand bucks laying around...sigh. My favorite shoes are wedges. I'm short so I like to add a few inches with out having to crawl the next day. I've been wearing my wedge booties quite a bit this winter, and I just picked up some classic brown leather wedges for the warmer weather, if it ever gets here.

Well I'm a woman in America so the media does have some influence on me whether I know it or not. But what I do know is all the women in the magazines are photoshopped so much they don't look like that. No one looks like that. So that makes me feel better.

I'm not sure what I weigh exactly I know where I am around, doesn't bother me. I care less about the number on the scale and more what I see in the mirror and how my clothes fit, I would like to tone up before summer gets here.

What do you probably over buy when it comes to fashion or beauty? 
Dresses and heels! Because I don't live a fancy life but I just cant stop buying them so I just look at them. lol Also I have far too many bathing suits, and lip products.

A mix between classic and fashionista. Though I'm a true maxxinista.
