Project 365: Week 11

 Day 65: A big hunk of focaccia with olives and potato and loads of other stuff in it aswell from Seven Hills Bakery.

 

Day 66: Handmade by my sister, this cool crocheted cactus brooch! It's a one off at the moment but if you really like it I'm certain she'd custom make one for you. Her Etsy shop is here.  

Day 67: As you've already seen I have firmly placed myself back in the ginger crew and had my bi-annual hair cut!

Day 68: Okay so polka dot dress was a write off, but I'm wiser going into my next project!

Day 69: I feel bad that I've only just got this framed and hung on the wall, six weeks before we move out, but I'm really glad it's up now. It's a housewarming gift from my friend Rebecca and it was made by her brother who's doing illustration at uni. Supporting independent artists oh yeah!



Day 70: Unfortunately the Friday hooping session has had to be cancelled so this weeks was the last one. It's been so much fun learning from Lizzy and it wont be the last time we hoop together I'm sure. She's pretty mesmerizing to watch (check her out in the vid below) and if you're in the Sheffield area and are looking to learn a new skill you should check her out.

Day 71: This hamper was brought back from Ben's parent's as a belated birthday present for me. It's full of lovely sewing things including a gorgeous pair of pinking shears.

Peach Tea

When I wear this outfit I feel like I should be sat on a big open porch, surrounded by magnolia trees drinking peach iced tea with a warm breeze blowing. In actual fact there's a very cold breeze blowing today, as ever.
It's actually not a good day to be wearing a wide brimmed hat but damn it, it goes so well with the dress! Even if it does keep blowing off!

This is what I refer to as my copper dress that I found in a vintage shop in Sheffield, named Vulgar which, alas, is no more but they're still on Asos. It's lovely though, again a high neckline and I love the delicate floral print.

 Not quite the deep south but the south nonetheless.....Yorkshire that is! Near enough.

Hat - Topshop

Dress - Vintage from Vulgar

Re - Gingered

Ah, that feels better!
It always feels good to get back to the colour you love after leaving it so long - and I love being ginger!
I hadn't dyed it since December just before we went on holiday and that was at the hairdressers. Well it's a bit pricey to have it professionally done every two months so I thought I'd do it myself this time. That of course means risking all sorts of mishaps, and of course, they occurred! Actually nothing too extreme to be honest, just a slight case of uneven coverage and I didn't leave it on my roots long enough to begin with so they're still a little darker. Overall though I'm not too concerned and I definitely do love it. 
Now I've just got to put the hard work in to maintaining it. (Cold showers throughout winter! Yay!)
I've dabbled with many different makes and shades of copper and this particular one is L'Oreal Sublime Mousse in Flaming Copper.
I'm really loving this one, think I'll stay with it for a while.
