Pink is the New Chic

It will no surprise to anyone who knows me that I've done this. I've done it before (okay 10 years ago) and I've been thinking about doing it for a few months now. I was thinking about it again with The Hollywood Housewife popped up in my Instagram stream and I thought well she's my age and she's done it so why can't I?

 So what have I done? I've gone and dyed my hair pink--not all of it, just a bit underneath--and I LOVE it. I work for myself so really nothing was holding me back and I'm so glad I've done it. So here I am all pinkified. What do y'all think? It is a sort of hot pink, fuchsia shade now and will eventually fade to a gentler bubble gum sort of pink.

 My Mom says I look Eurotrash; since I've wanted to be Eurotrash since I was 14 I will take that to be a huge compliment!

 I guess I'll know soon enough as NotBlondeHusband and I are off for a mini-break (toddler free!) to Sweden tomorrow! I'll try and tweet when I get wifi; see you Monday!!

 PS: Because I like y'all here is the picture from 10 years ago; don't be too hard on me. I swear two pink chunks framing your face was super cool in Ohio in 2002.

    Hahahaha, not sure how I missed this post! Brilliant - I'm a brunette so pink wouldn't really show. But I did do the dark red thing a la Claire Danes in high school. Oh yeahhhhhhhh

    Love this! I've always wanted to try doing my tips in rainbow colors, but I know my corporate job wouldn't approve. Adorable on you!

    No my fabulous colourist Melissa did it at Sculptur at the bottom of Woodlands Road in the West End. Can not recommend her enough!

    I love it - makes me wish I was blonde - this look doesn't work on a brunette
