I had a nightmare about black Friday last night. I guess you know you are in retail when shopping wakes you up at night in a cold sweat. In my dream our computer failed and people were getting angry because they couldn’t check out. I ended up just locking people in the store so that they wouldn’t leave before I could get my computer fixed. Just for future reference, don’t lock people in anywhere. A hostage situation is not the best sales tactic. 

So I got to wash my hair this morning, which was good because it was starting to dread. Red dreads — you’d still read my blog right?

  1. i love your blog for these kind of outfits! i love when you risk more and more because tha encourages me to play with my clothes too! kisse from Buenos Aires!

  2. Such a cute top & I love how you color co-ordinated with the bag.
    I dreamt last night that I smashed my iPhone by sleeping on it! Not a very original fear but still. Now I'm scared to even handle it too much.

  3. That sweater print is totally cool! And your hair…what kind of dye did you use? Not that I'm going to run out and be a Kendi-copy cat but just curious. My mom does the natural Henna with the tea bags and natural dye.

  4. i love your new hair color!!  and your outfit can't be any cuter!!  what a perfect pair of boots for this outfit!!

  5. I absolutely love today's outfit post. Your hair is also b-e-a-utiful. 🙂

  6. I feel like that's completely normal! Most fashion bloggers would have nightmares about black friday, right? haha maybe you are one of the few, but regardless – it IS a scary thing! 

    By the way, you look fabulous. (as usual)
    I'm loving your pairings as well as the red! It makes you look fierce! hah

  8. I love that sweater! 
    LOL @ the Black Friday nightmare. I remember working retail.  I'm glad I don't have to brave the mad house. Getting up at 4:30/5am, to be at the store by 6 am, to open by 7am I'm tired just thinking about it. (^_^)

  9. I've worked Black Friday for the past 5 years, and I gotta say, the day itself is a nightmare. Goodluck! Stop by my blog if you have the chance, currently featuring a DIY pink glittery pumpkin, my floral crown, a cat print dress, and a give-away!

  10. I love the reddish hair!  Subtle but enough to make a difference (unlike my college days when red had to be RED).  Beautiful!  And, like everyone else here, I'm loving those boots.

  11. I joked about the hair yesterday, but I guess it really is a big change because I almost didn't recognize you in my Bloglovin' feed. I was all "who is THAT and when did I subscribe?" But it's you. Also, my blog may or may not also be showing off a gingham button-up under a sweater look today. Coinky-dink.

  12. Love the red hair on you; it's gorgeous!

    Also, maybe don't lock people in the store Friday.  Unless you have to, of course, then do what you gotta do.

  13. I like the new hair!!….Love the outfit….you didnt mention your jewelry came from.

  14. Your hair looks so beautiful! I wish I had the courage to change mine… xx

  15. Dreams of dreading black friday…good thing you washed your hair! And really, it's okay to force cute clothes upon people. I mean, I'd be totally fine with it. Anyhoo, your hair is prettay. Good luck at Bloom on Friday.

  16. The red in your hair looks so good on you! Really adds some depth and body to your hair! And of course, great outfit – love the jumper and shirt combo 🙂

    Life etc
     

  17. The thing I love most about your outfit posts is you teach me different ways to wear the pieces I buy. When I buy something now, I think of a multitude of ways I can wear it, instead of one specific look. I admire your mix and mingle skill, as well as your choice in pieces. Just wanted to let you know you're my fashion hero. Thanks for looking awesome!

  18. Oh my, you made me laugh with this, I use to work retail and I would always have this same nightmare right before Black Friday. (That and customers with chainsaws.  Terrifying.)   Also, how fun is red hair?  I just went from brown to red and it is just insanely fun.  The red looks quite lovely on you, it's very flattering on your skin-tone and looks gorgeous  (And good luck with Black Friday, is Black Friday or  the Small Business Saturday usually busier for you and your shop?)

  19. Love the new hair! It's so fresh. Good luck on Friday! 😉

  21. Well, now we know. It IS possible that you look even cuter than usual. 😀

  22. i hope i don't sound totally creeps but can you share more pics of your hair? or what made you decide to go red? or what you did exactly? i have really dark hair and am really thinking about going red. i am digging the shade that you have going and was wondering about maintenance, etc. 

  23. Really? My daughter woke up today and told me she dreamt I had lice. Yes, lice. I'll take rioting Xmas shoppers over lice any day/dream. 

  24. Can you tell me what size your blue shaded dark orange Sweater is in the last  photo? I'm purchasing one off line and its always hard to
    determine size. Thanks

  25. cute… and i hate to be the bitch everyone hates but somebody's gotta say it…..WHY do you NEVER use an iron?  you will look so much more polished. that skirt looks like it came right out of a box.

  26. loving the hair. The sweater always freaks me a bit, but that's only for the first moment. Then it's such an eyecatcher!
