This is probably a whole lotta print for most people, but I sometimes like to push the limits. I wore this for Saturday morning errands (my life, it is nothing but glamour), when the risk is low to non-existent. Nobody at Superstore at 7:30 on a Saturday morning cares that I mixed circus tent stripes and florals. Not a single person. Trust.
That particular Saturday also happened to be my birthday (did I mention my life was glamorous? Who needs swanky parties when you’ve got the frozen desserts aisle all to yourself?) so naturally, I had to take a selfie. I was having a Good Hair Day, which made the prospect of staring down my encroaching 40s a little less scary. As long as there are Good Hair Days, everything is a little less scary.
A Fabulous Hair Day (not just a good one)!
Thank you! It doesn’t get more fabulous than that, does it 😉
That is some A level print mixing. The colors go well even, dare I say, match!
Thanks! I’m not sure if you are from the UK, but your comment reminded me of their uni entrance exams (I think that’s what the A levels are? It’s been a while since I lived there) – and I was very happy to get my A level in Print Mixing 😉
You look like Bryce Dallas-Howard! Or Jessica Chastain? I get confused & ive heard ppl say Ron might have fathered both of them… Anyway they’re both gorgeous and so are you. Happy birthday for the wknd!
Conspiracy theory!! I will happily take either comparison, and thank you – you are so sweet!
That’s a Magnificent Hair Day you’ve got going on there. Happy birthday!
Hahaha! I like that. I might have to use it 😉
Thanks!
Love the look–very harmonious. Adorable on you. Happy Bday! At 70plus, I look forward to many more years of enjoying your creative posts.
Thank you so much! And thanks for reading 🙂
That’s such a good hair day I’d like some details on how to get those same curls!
Thanks! I just use an oval barrel iron (BaByLiss) and wrap sections of hair around the barrel, hold for 10 secs, and that’s it. I promise you, it is super easy.
Happy happy birthday! Late 30s early 40s are fun and you’ll love it!
I know, I know. I have a few friends who are at that stage, and they are more fabulous than ever. It just makes me question a lot of things about my life/self. Taking stock, etc. I’m sure the angst will pass 🙂
Your hair looks amazing! And you look 25, not 35!! I really love that sweater, I’d snatch it in an instant if I saw it somewhere around here.
Happy belated birthday! Roxi – goldenpolkadots.blogspot.com
Thanks! It’s from last fall at J. Crew, but it does pop up on eBay from time to time in case you’re interested.
