crown and glory

Rose Gold...

Sunday, February 06, 2011

Attempting to write this post while secretly watching dancing on ice..seriously why do I get sucked into watching these things?! My current tv vice bar criminal minds is the 90's series buffy the vampire slayer..so bad its good! Im forcing Dave to watch it with me too.. lol..




Bit of an out take pic?
Dave always makes me laugh while taking my photos in the most random locations while people are looking at me like im a mad woman..









Jumper and suede leggings: M&S Limited Edition Sale, Bag & rose gold watch: asos, cream necklace: H&M, gold heart necklace: River Island. Turban headband: Crown & Glory.

I am loving this turban the lovely Sophie sent me, I was a bit scared when I first got in the mail... Im gonna tell you all a secret now.. I have an incredibly large head.yup you heard right..
Im not being paranoid or obsessive my head is big. Hats dont fit me, hairbands give a headache cos they're usually too small.. lucky this little beauty has stretch and fitted quite well, it tried to pop off a few times so i secured it with a clip.

Met up with the lovely Nic from Vint Junky today..Ive been reading her blog and chatting to her via twitter for so long I feel like I know her so well. It was lovely to finally meet her
in person and have a good chat! Photos of the day will be up soon!
Also dyed my hair Live xl real red last night! Eep!! Its pretty bright red but im hoping in a wash or two it'll be a more orange red..

    Still madly in love with your glasses- they're an amazing colour, would love to know where they're from or which brand/designer they're by.

    Also loving the handbag, having serious bag envy here!

    Glad I'm not the only on with TV vices, not sure I'm brave enough to admit to mine!

    Is your jumper like 2 different colours (red and blue) because that's how it looks in these photos and if so, hello amazing!!! Love your outfit regardless of two tone jumper and I think the turban scarf thing looks incredible on you. I'm the opposite to you, I can wear hats but not these scarf things because my hair is too short.

    Hahha, I love at-home television (as I like to call it), just as much as you do! It's just so relaxing to take your mind off everything and watch people falling over the ice, or skating beautifully, isn't it?
    Regardless, you did this post well! At least you did something productive! And your outfit it so gorge, too. You take such lovely photos xx

    Criminal Minds is one of my favourite programmes, ever. I've just finished Season 4 (am watching them all on boxset), so am behind the tv - can't wait til Season 5 comes out later in the month!

    I've been really tempted to buy the Complete Buffy the Vampire Slayer boxset for ages.. but I've resisted so far.. I do think I need it in my life though, however sad that may be!

    Loving the colour palette of this outfit - the bag is so pretty :)

    Loving the whole outfit/look especially the bag and hair band. Don't worry I too have an unusually large head and always have trouble with hairbands! Good to know Crown and Glory can cater for us big heads! Hehe.xx

    Love Criminal Minds and Buffy!

    I have a really weird unusually large shaped head and have yet to find the perfect hat...

    I notice it even more so with those awful paper crowns you get in Christmas crackers.

    I love that mustard coloured turban, it really suits you.

    Love the turban. I never used to be able to wear hats but when I got my hair cut short found it was no longer a problem! I think having long hair makes your head big and slippery so hats can be problematic.

    I 'm a dyed redhead too but can't afford to go back to the hairdressers to refresh and can't find any red colours at the chemist! Looking forward to seeing your Live results :)

    Buffy is brilliant! Well, it started to go downhill from s4 onwards but even then it's still great!

    I suffer from giant head-itis too. I've been a bit scared of trying turbans but you've inspired me to give it a go.

    Buffy the Vampire Slayer is awesome! She was a role model for our time. Well my time, but I am old. She was my total teenage hero, we need more strong women like her on tv I think.

    *gets off the soap box*

    I really love your outfit - the shades go together so well. I am looking forward to seeing the photos of you and Nat.

    OMG I Loooooove Criminal Minds too! I always end up watching episodes I've seen dozens of times instead of watching something different- it sucks me in! And the Goob...*sigh*

    Also, you are not alone! I have a giant head too haha!

    The turban looks amazing on you and the colour is really complimentary, I am tempted to try one.
