#DOINGAMILEY

So having been frequenting London Fashion Week for the past few days, I definitely got caught up in the fashion vibe and decided to radicalise my look... and chop off all my hair. All seventeen inches of it (yes, the hairdresser measured it!)

So it went from this:






To this...





To this...




And finally to this...

Necklace - River Island, Kimono - Primark, Chiffon vest - H&M


It was a huge shock, and although I miss being able to swish about my long locks, or pile it in a top knot when it is irritatingly heavy and thick, I must say I adore my shoulder-length chop.
Apart from making me look older (I was definitely mistaken for being a fifteen year old two weeks ago at a wedding) it feels so much more flirty and playful, but maintains the volume and layering I love.

Thank you so much to the Toni & Guy team in the Blow-Out Bar at LFW... Without you I would still be dithering on whether to have half an inch, or a whole inch taken off! You did a fabulous job, and although I had quite a few sips of vino for confidence, I am delighted that I listened to your scissor-happy advice.
