Luscious, Lilac Locks

I did it!

I got out of the house and into the hairdressers!

Woop woop.

 

 

I had to cancel my opticians appointment last week. But today, after a half-decent night, (as opposed to a night of very little sleep punctuated with numerous trips to the loo!), I caught the bus into Jimmys' End. Not quite as far as the town centre, and only one bus, but still, I am chuffed to bits.

 

And to top it off, I have a fabulous new haircut and colour.

Double whammy!!

Luscious Locks In Notts

I cannot quite believe this is me!
 

 

Beautiful hairstyle crated by the amazing Lucille of https://www.facebook.com/lucilleslocks

 

 

With her adorable little dog, Margot. (Extra surprise)

 

 

A wonderful way to be pampered, (with added cake and coffee too), organised by the lovely Karina of Vintage To A Tea.

 

Thank you girls for a most fabulous treat!

A Vintage Kinda Gal

 Saturday was the Vintage Fair at St Matthews.

Lots of goodies bought, (that need photographing), friends caught up with and new ones made.

Sadly my 'twinnie' has a chest infection and wasn't able to make it but we've sent each other best wishes via Trevor!

At last, the perfect weather to wear my 'new' vintage Burberry that Mr B brought me from Scout in Sunderland.

as we call it, The Burberry Museum

Cannot believe that one was ever made large enough to fit me! The most brilliant thing for me is that, what some people would hate, the shorter sleeve, is the perfect 'bracelet length' for me and saves me having to roll back my sleeves, which I do with most of my jackets.

The yellow brolly I bought at TK Maxx, for a fiver, ages ago.

 My wonderful vintage poker print scarf was a giveaway win from Char, again, ages ago!

Isn't it fabulous?

My tiny little yellow flower head earrings I bought when I was a student, so that must make them even older than vintage!

The amazing 'H' the old Citroen van was a newcomer to the Fair and Mr B bought me the most apt gift from them...a cushion made from a vintage Bognor Regis and surrounding views T-towel. BR basically runs through my veins. I will do a post on that as an individual 'thing' as most of the views I have photographs of that I have taken in the past.


A large part of my life on a cushion, you could say.

Obligatory windswept hair shot



Just to remind me to get a trim and some new highlights done!

#BEDM rather fell by the wayside; just got totally disillusioned with posting anything last week.



Haircut

 

My twice-yearly cut 'n' colour by Kerry.

My 'looked-forward-to treat' each time I visit this wonderful city.

Haircut & Munich River Surfing

Had my hair cut really short!

Think it looks really great but not in these photos!

Had a phone call from Mr B at lunchtime. He is in Munich at the mo. They opened last night and today he had some time off. He had been told about the 'river surfers' so he pottered off to have a look. This is what he found...without the Minus 7 frostbite!

DOES ANYONE ELSE HATE THE NEW BLOGGER??? CAN I REVERT BACK TO THE OLD STYLE? I ABSOLUTEY LOATHE THIS AND CANNOT DO WHAT I WANT ie put this after the video

Edit: Many thanks to Julie from KC'sCourt and her extremely helpful and sanity-inducing post here!
