The Sugar, Spice, and Everything Nice

2.28.2009

I was going through old pictures... and I really, really miss my hair now. Partially because I'm sick and tired of straightening it everyday and I want my long wavy hair back!


I really love this vest, the missing button is causing a really unattractive gape. I think I'm just going to buy miscellaneous buttons and replace all of them. Sounds fun, but I am too darn lazy to go through the trouble.

I can sympathize with the button laziness! I wear things missing buttons all the time...

I love the vest and lace body suit!

You look amazing with shorter hair. I have the same issues since I cut my hair short. I have to straighten my hair very often but I like how it looks. My hair looks so messy if I don not use flat iron. I am so glad that I found the products that keep my hair shiny and healthy. The second photo is wonderful. The light is perfect

Omg looking through old pictures always brings nostalgia about hair. I remember doing that all the time and missing long hair. and then missing dark hair. and then light hair. and so on. I think your hair looks great and hey it will grow back sooner or later so cherish it while you can :)

I love both outfits as well! The vest is adorable (can we see closeups?). It looks like it is totally part of the dress or something.

love both outfits. i can see why you love the vest..i'm lazy too i hate haaving to fix my clothes when they lose buttons or some other randomness..
and having the hair in the mid stages is the worst..i ended up having short hair for yaers because i couldn't make it grow out form the midstages. but i finally did and now it's long again =)
