I Want Ombre Dip Dye Hair!

I have had a crush on ombre dip dye hair for so long now, but have always been much too scared to have it done. I don’t like dying my hair at the best of times. As it is, it’s currently my own natural colour with a few highlights from over a year ago. I wouldn’t change the root colour to make it darker though, what I always had planned in my head was to just lighten the ends of my hair to make them even blonder, so I would have a dark to light blonde ombre. Those of you who read my blog will know how obsessed with ombre clothes I am, so having ombre hair would be something that I would love. I don’t have the patience to sit in the salon for hours while having it done, plus it would be very expensive, so I bought the L’Oreal Wild Ombre’s hair colour to do myself at home. I’ve read a lot of reviews on it and how easy it is and everyone loves the results, so I’m really excited to give that a go. Do you love the ombre hair trend? Do you think I should go for it?

Celebrity Hairstyles I Love

As you know from my second Q&A I did, I have been quite adventurous with my hair in the past, it’s been a lot of different colours, short, long, mid length, I have had a fringe/bangs and more, but the past few years I haven’t been brave enough to try something new. I did a post back in August 2010 of celeb hairstyles I love and I thought I would do another, updated version. I like keeping my hair it’s natural blonde colour but I really want to try something new. I think I am too scared to go for a full fringe because I don’t think my face really suits it, I feel like my forehead is too short for a full one. I’ve often had the sweeping fringe but it quickly grows out and I don’t like going to the hairdressers much. I love having longer hair too, I had boy short hair for such a long time and I never want to go down that route again. I’m loving Hilary’s up do in the photo above, it looks really sexy and fresh. I also love Vanessa’s new short extensions she has had put in, they really suit her! I’ve got a thing for braids too but my hair is so thick and layered the braids never seem to hold up or work on me. I’ve also always adored curly or volumised hair! I think it’s such a nice look.

Royal Wedding Beauty – Kate & William

The wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton has been the only thing I have watched on the TV today. It was held at Westminster Abbey in London, England. I woke up this morning and watched the guests arriving, I watched the ceremony, the horse and carriage ride, the balcony appearance and everything else. The day was just so beautiful and so moving! Kate’s dress was as I expected, an Alexander McQueen creation designed by Sarah Burton. It was simply stunning and I love the lace on the top half. William looked very handsome and smart in his royal suit as well. The kiss on the balcony was my favourite part, it was so romantic and I am wishing the couple happiness for the rest of their lives. The horse and carriage ride was also amazing and it just choked me up when I heard everyone cheering for them. I even loved the Aston Martin that Kate, now Princess Catherine, and William decorated with balloons as he drove them both off. The Queen wore a pale lemon yellow suit which she looked very happy in and Prince Harry looked really smart too. The maid of honour,  Kate’s sister, looked elegant and Victoria and David Beckham wore black ensembles but they looked amazing. I know most of you will have watched the wedding so what did you love the most? I have included lots of photos from the beautiful day in this blog post.

Ashley Tisdale Naked For Allure

Image courtesy of Allure Magazine. When I saw this naked photo, I was really shocked as I never thought Ashley Tisdale would be one to bare all for a photo shoot. After I read her words about the shoot though, I realised she wants people to see she is a woman and not a child anymore because she looks young. I myself can relate to that because people often think I am younger than I am, they are shocked when I tell them I am almost 23. I wouldn’t take my clothes off to prove this though, ha ha. What are your opinions on Ashley Tisdale’s naked spread? I think it’s really tasteful and classic, it’s not sleazy so I think she did a good job with it. I still love her ‘Believe’ tattoo on her back too. I just hope she doesn’t take to doing Playboy or Maxim next! (Follow me on Twitter, Bloglovin and Facebook)

Looks I Love At The Kids Choice Awards 2011

The 2011 Kids Choice Awards was held at the USC Galen Center on Saturday 2nd April in Los Angeles, California. A lot of the teen celebs and a couple of older celebs attended the event and graced the orange carpet. I love the fact that the carpet is orange! It makes a nice change from the classic the red one! I’m glad Nickelodeon’s trademark is orange. I’ve put together a few photos of my favourite outfits from the event and what they were wearing in this post. Miley Cyrus posed for photos wearing a Dolce & Gabbana floral print dress which was my favourite of the afternoon! I love the colours, they blend so well and the shape of the dress is so flattering! This is definitely the perfect choice in my opinion. (Follow me on Twitter, Bloglovin and Facebook)

Lady Gaga Born This Way Music Video

I had to post Lady Gaga’s new music video for her brand new song ‘Born This Way’. I think it’s one of her best videos yet, I have watched it 3 times already from start to finish and I can’t stop staring at how amazing she looks! Plus, I adore the lyrics in the song, they are so inspirational. Here is the video for those of you who haven’t seen it yet. She does look so good in it! You need to click the video to watch it on YouTube though, it’s not allowed to play outside of YouTube unfortunately! I’m beautiful in my way, cause God makes no mistakes, I’m on the right track, baby, I was born this way… Don’t hide yourself in regret, just love yourself and your set, I’m on the right track, baby, I was born this way… (Follow me on Twitter, Bloglovin and Facebook)

Looks I Love At The Oscars 2011

The 83rd Academy Awards 2011 Oscars ceremony was held at the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles, California on Sunday 27th February 2011. The event was everything I expected it to be, being one of the biggest red carpet events of the year! There were so many famous faces and so many amazing dresses! I have piled all of my favourite ones in this post and included what they were wearing. Jennifer Hudson (above and below) looked amazing! She reminded me a lot of a perfect barbie doll in her Atelier Versace bright orangey red gown and purple heels. I think the cut of this dress is stunning for her figure and it really flatters her. It’s definitely one of my favourites from the night! (Follow me on Twitter, Bloglovin and Facebook)

Beyonce Rocks Christian Louboutin Daffodile Strass

Beyonce sat courtside before the NBA basketball All-Star Game with Jay-Z yesterday in Los Angeles, California. I am just besotted with her shoes! She was wearing the brand new Christian Louboutin Daffodile 160 in Strass! They are so stunning!! I could never walk in a shoe that high but Beyonce certainly rocks them! I’m in love! (Follow me on Twitter, Bloglovin and Facebook) She was also seen last week sporting the Turquoise Christian Louboutin Daffodile’s as she was out and about in Los Angeles, California. I’m not as fond of these as I am the strass, above, but I think these are definitely going to be the new ‘it’ shoe for Msr. Louboutin! I think we are all going to have to get used to walking in 160’s! Ouch! It’s going to be painful! [showads728x90]
