:: head to toe ::
glasses :: Derek Cardigan 7017 Shadow from Coastal
necklace :: gift from Friendly Gesture
shirt :: Bluenotes (I think)
ring :: c/o OASAP
cardigan :: H&M
shorts :: Old Navy
tights :: Walmart
shoes :: c/o B.A.I.T

Ok, this is a better hairstyle to show off the pretty colours in my hair. Curls and colourful hair are one of my favourite things. 

After taking these photos I realized that this cute fox ring is a lot more comfortable if I wear it the other way around with the fox head closer to my knuckle. My instinct is always to wear rings so that I can see the design right side up but I don't know why I do that because I know it is supposed to be the other way around so that other people can see the design. I guess I'm just selfish.

I kind of can't believe how long it has been since I have painted my nails. I feel strangely naked showing these photos with super short nails and no nail polish. My nails have been breaking more than normal and I haven't felt like painting them at all for the last few weeks. 

Today I am going to take it easy. I'm not feeling 100% so I plan on having a relaxing day and trying to feel better. I hope you are all having a great day!

  1. Your hair is really lovely.
    I'll try and remember to bring you some silicea tissue salt next week. It will help to strengthen your nails. Please remind me. You know what my brain is like ;P

  2. Your hair looks gorgeous - I love the colors, and the style here is lovely as well. I also like how it contrasts with your shorts. Very cute :)

  3. My nails have been struggling lately too! Right now I just have a super plain gray color on, instead of something fancy and bright. Trying to take better care of them, but it's not working yet...

    But more importantly - your hair looks awesome!! I love the pretty color, and the way you styled it in these photos. So pretty. I've never ever wanted to dye my hair different colors like this, but yours just looks so pretty, it's a little bit tempting :)

  4. Your hair looks awesome!!! My nails were breaking a bunch, so i tried Nail Envy by OPI... and within a week I noticed stronger and longer nails. Maybe it'll help you too?

  6. Love this outfit, those shorts are amazing, especially with the blacks and greys of the rest of your outfit. I've said it before but I freaking love your hair at the moment! Such a great colour, and it looks amazing xo

  7. You look gorgeous! I love that hair style and outfit. I'm having to force myself to not paint my nails and give them a little rest and therapy. I hate not having color on my nails! Oh and I'm totally known to be selfish with my ring too! I do have to give in when it's more comfortable the other way around. Whompwhomp..

  10. Definitely love the hair! Also, I wear my rings the same way. My BFF and I have had an on going debate on which way is the correct way. =)

  12. I am the same way with rings. My engagement ring is a heart shaped diamond and I wear it wit the point toward me. Someone once told me that I had it on backwards and it was supposed to be the other way so others could see the design and I replied, it's MY engagement ring! The heart is for me! haha

  13. Yeah, the curls are great. I do the same thing with my hair.

  14. I love this post! Your hair looks so pretty! And I'm not usually a huge fan of the tights with shorts look, but I'm loving this! And I am also ring-selfish. I want to enjoy it! I don't have tattoos, but I always thought that would be an issue with tattoos for me -- I'd want them oriented so that I could enjoy them...so they'd all wind up upside down or weirdly placed.

  15. Cute shorts!
    I've never been able to pull of printed shorts/pants.
    Maybe I'll find the right pair someday.
    But, seriously, super cute on you!

    Also I love the pink underhair! CUTE

  20. Those shorts are amazing! Were they recently picked up from Old Navy? I'm a little inclined to see if they still have any pairs laying around for next summer! They're just too cute.
    And I love how your hair looks in these photos. It looks so soft, yet coiffed. Like, a Victorian era 'do, with all the side swept curls. Lovely!

  22. lovely job with your hairstyle, it really does show off your color. my nails don't take repeated painting well :( I would need to condition them a ton!

  23. Hey Elycia! I've always loved your blog so I thought I'd stop by and actually say hello. I recently started my own fashion blog. It's really, really new but feel free to take a look around. As always, your outfit looks amazing!

  26. Your hair is ADORABLE like this. I can't get over it. I much prefer the long hair I have now over the short hair I had (about your length) two years ago when I donated it, but looking at these pictures make me miss it. ;)

    I wear rings the same way!! I always feel like people never pay too much attention to your hands, so it's okay to be selfish with how you wear them. :)
