Autumn in New York 1942

I understand that Autumn has come and gone and we are descending into Winter now but I can't help hold on these amazing colours. Such beautiful styling, makes me wish I was born in the days were ladies wore gloves, hats, shawls and petticoats..

Friday night hair ideas
Just a quick post before I start to get ready for a few tipples in town, wondering if this hairstyle is a little too ambitious even for a Friday....

Back to brunette
Photography by Edwin
As mentioned a few posts previously I was having a dilemma as to whether I should grow my hair as a blond or a brunette. On Friday I finally took the plunge and dyed my hair back to it's original dark brunette shade and I have to say I'm delighted with the result! Although I really enjoyed being a blond for two years I feel more at home with my natural colour and definitely more myself. So thank you for all your advice and lovely comments that helped make this decision.

Girl crush
Illustrations by Mercedes Helnwein
After flicking through the much awaited new issue of Lula magazine I came across the wonderful Austrian born illustrator Mercedes Helnwein. The more I looked into this lady the more besotted I became with her and the darling characters she illustrates. Such a lovely vintage feel to them all, they remind me a little of the 70's "Peter and Jane" books I was taught to read from.
You can also see a short film of Mercedes at work in her incredible studio, just take a rewarding trip to the Lula website.

Winter styling
Photography and styling Julia Galdo
As I mentioned in the previous post I'm in love with 30's and 40's styling. Perhaps because it's freezing winter here already and wrapping up in woolen ponchos, faux fur shaws with dainty tailored gloves is a really elegant way to keep warm. I have been practicing pinning my hair into this style, still needs a bit of work but looks great with bright red lipstick.

The Edge of love
Beautiful photography by Wendy Bevan
I did promise more photography by the talanted Wendy Bevan, and here they are! I really love the colours she has contrasted in these photos and the war time styling. I am falling in love more and more with this era, encouraged slightly by watching "The Edge of love" finally. I use to hate Keira Knightley with a passion, but this film may have turned all that around, her Welsh accent isn't that bad either. I would highly reccomend this film, if like me you love watching films for the costumes alone. April Ferry has done such an amazing job, she talks a little about her inspiration on the website.

Where I lay bare

I love these photographs, they have really got me in the mood for dressing up tonight!
I have been sitting on this beautiful photo collage for a while now as it can only be appreciated in full size, so I decided to rearange my blog to accommodate. Abbey Drucker has also photographed my dream girl Zooey Deschanel, what a lucky talented lady!

One of the most popular things I like to talk about both on my blog and off is what to do with my hair.. I really have had every style you can imagine which makes choosing my next one rather difficult, I am lucky that I suit being a blonde and a brunette. I had a blond seventies bowl cut over summer which is slowly growing out now into a shoulder length golden bob. I would say this is the stage I rarely get past without changing the colour or cutting it short again.. So my tiny dilemma is should I go back to my true brunette roots and aim for the hair of girl 4 in the line up or girl 3 and stay golden blond...
Any advice welcome!
