Versatile skirt
Ever buy something and it seems it’s made for you? That was the case with this denim pencil skirt I picked up at Old Navy this weekend. I was looking for more work clothing and came across this awesome skirt that fit just right and can go casual for weekends or a bit more business like for work:
So this is what it’s like to be blonde again
I finally did it and went blonde. Since I had existing blonde streaks in my hair I couldn’t get all over blonde because it could cause too much damage to already bleached hair… so they pulled my hair and “highlighted” just about 95% of it. I think it looks fantastic! And I had it done at a new salon that is only a few miles from my house. Sure beats the drive to Hollywood for a hair appointment! It cost more but not as much as I’ve paid in the past and it was well worth it… I had it done by Leyla at Shannon Hair in Valencia. Those hairdressers are quite talented AND speedy!
Jeans for everyone!
So the only brand jeans I could find that would fit my waist and length and fit correctly was Old Navy… and then like 4 months or so ago, they changed their cuts and NONE of them fit me anymore. When they’re long enough they’re way too big. Even the long jeans don’t fit right, they’re too big everywhere even when they fit my waist, they’re baggy thighs and saggy ass. So after 4 months of trying to find jeans everywhere (Gap, Macy’s, Pacific Sunwear, etc.) . I went into Buckle.
Wow! What a relief this place is. They have sooo many brands of jeans and get this… they measure jeans realistically like men’s pants! They have a waist size and length size in a REAL unit of measurement! inches! 
So no longer do I wear size 6, 8, and/or 10 depending on brand. I now wear a 29/35! Yes they go as long as 35!! It’s so great!! I tried on all different 29/35s and they all fit!! It took me about an hour to figure out my size in real numbers and a style that I liked and then, presto! done. I left with 2 pairs of jeans. Of course to go through a stress-free jean shopping experience, you gotta pay a price. It cost me a lot more than I’m used to for jeans… I like paying no more than $40 for jeans- $30 even better. I paid $68 and $74 which is truly disgusting to me, but after 4 months of not finding a single pair that’s made for me, I felt justified in spending it.
