It's funny how sometimes one needs a change to our exterior and image to bring out our true selves, to feel confident in one's skin. <br />I can relate to your sudden need to change your hair colour after a life changing experience, as I find myself craving the same when something important happens. Sometimes it feels like a way of leaving the past behind, like the shedding of an old skin like snakes do!<br />As always, great finds too!Mrs. Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13483179501424700390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-69156087079722655692012-08-14T19:11:27.071+01:002012-08-14T19:11:27.071+01:00Loved hearing about your hair color change!

My parents both had little gray and it came on later, but I do see a strand here or there when I inspect my hair closely! I do think we are very much tied up in hair color. You look great! I would never have imagined you blonde, and would not have been able to picture it without the old photo you shared earlier. <br /><br />xx<br />Lynn <br /><br />PS -- love the lace slip and the heels!Lynn Hastyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16367660287680792496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-81335763877045360622012-08-14T17:32:55.901+01:002012-08-14T17:32:55.901+01:00What a neat, inspiring story, Vix.

(though when I wore a blond wig once, men were practically dumb with lust, admiration?). But then again, Veronica was always my idol as a kid, LOL.

Being a brunette, I'm of course biased towards dark hair :)<br />When I was in my 20s I had a streak of grey hair at one temple. I liked it because it made me look older. Then I got older and dyed it to cover the grey. I had to touch up my roots every 10 days. My roots dictated by life, so I stopped dying my hair. Now it is 'salt and pepper.' I just think of grey as another color not one that means anything. Heck, my boyfriend is younger than me and is completely silver-haired!<br />The black trouser suit fits you so well, but I do like you in color so much more.joyatrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02460272074875273228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-48442526270499164362012-08-14T04:40:58.626+01:002012-08-14T04:40:58.626+01:00This is a grand story!

As someone who always thought being blonde was "it" (whatever it was supposed to be) it seem strange that someone who was blonde by birth would ever want to not be that way. Well, go figure! My hair colour is close to natural now, and I was going to go blonder (you know, in order to be more perfect) but looking a photos of myself on my blog, I don't actually mind the colour it is. At least it's not grey. Not that I mind grey hair. Wrinkles I could live without, but I actually rather like grey hair (because it's lighter!)<br /><br />Cheers,<br />Rosemary foreveronthecatwalkoflife.blogspot.comRosemary the Shopperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00316946282261305149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-20809442999012450742012-08-13T19:46:36.245+01:002012-08-13T19:46:36.245+01:00I love this transformation into you Vix!

As a kid I hated being a carrot top was teased constantly and felt pretty ugly and then as I grew older I was suppose to suddenly be thankful for that same head of red. That is when I started dying my hair I was 23 and haven't looked back. Sometimes the red is back and others times in small dosages but you said it best it's all about being the person you truly fell your best being:) <br /><br />You are a true Goddess in your dark locks, I can't image you any other way. <br />Tonsoflove~<br />KristaKristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00350442910321860733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-31821932232310966642012-08-13T18:05:48.310+01:002012-08-13T18:05:48.310+01:00Your mum was a wonderful lady and a great roll mod...Your mum was a wonderful lady and a great roll model by the sounds of it.

Love seeing you in the black trouser suit, I'm lusting after it here, and love the shoes too. I'm so envious of women who can wear high heels because I'm lanky and feel self conscious in them. I have got a few pairs though and I'm trying to feel more confident about my height and just wear them anyway. My daughter always tells me to just shut up and get them on, she's good for me that way.<br /> My hair's naturally dark brown, which I was always happy with, but starting to get a fair bit of grey, so I'm just starting to experiment with dyeing it and I'm heading for red now. A lot of people are saying it really brightens me up and I wish I'd have tried it years ago now, because I do like it myself. xxCityScape Skybabyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10664705819999740018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-42664724721780943332012-08-13T08:38:08.555+01:002012-08-13T08:38:08.555+01:00Thanks for sharing this story Vix - I'm not na...Thanks for sharing this story Vix - I'm not naturally black haired either (although a surprisingly large number of people think I am) - I also feel there is something quite empowering about black hair.Treeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07319274204951528344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-29144700240314177502012-08-13T08:15:58.040+01:002012-08-13T08:15:58.040+01:00Ooh, I'm the opposite, Vix!
