New Hair!

I'm very low-maintenance when it comes to my hair. It just grows out too quickly (about an inch+ a month) to keep short or have elaborately colored. So I decided this time around (since I looked like a bag lady with my amorphous blob of hair) to just get it layered and ombred (that is, colored in the ombre style. Who the heck termed it that? "Yes, I would like my hair colored in the ombre style." It just rolls off the tongue).

Anyway. . . back to where I was before that long-winded deviation . . .

I went to my friend Rachel from Sola Salon Studios--blog here--this morning and gave her free reign with my hair. She had previously done it red last fall, and it turned out so wonderfully that I would basically trust Rachel to do whatever she wanted with my hair short of shaving it off.
Although. . . maybe . . .

At the Lafayette Art & Wine Festival last fall with my red hair

Rachel did my hair this morning, perfectly planned to happen right before my job interview this afternoon, so it would look like I have naturally soft, salon-styled hair (actually, it was purely coincidental).

Spicy new hair

Today's Outfit

...is brought to you by the letters S, N, and L

I spent a good chunk of time scouring Google for outfits that I remembered the ladies of SNL wearing that indirectly influenced my outfit today, and nary a one.

So I moved on to Netflix, and spent forever (like 5 minutes) skimming through episodes and taking screen captures.

Ohhhkay creepo in the corner

So that's the style mood I was in when I got dressed.

Then I tried taking pictures outside of my actual outfit, and this is what happened:
And since I was too lazy (darn you, heat!) to find a ladder to set my camera on, you get this instead.

Basically put, there's a whole lot of lazy going on here.

Who influences what you wear?

Do you have one style or change it every day?
