Hair for all Occasions: #1

Rain, rain...come and save us from this heat!

Rainy season is upon us folk living near the equator so it's time to bust out the waterproof covers and durable boots so we can splash around in the puddles...while we do the school runs and run from our carpark to work!

Umbrellas don't work all that great since most if the time a monsoon is cause by a low which causes a cyclone and the insuring winds do make the umbrella irrelevant as the rain comes at you sideways and/or you end up looking like flying Mary Poppins 0_0

Cue the raincoat! Ever popular with kids and can also be stylish for adults. I wanted one with a hood and was cheap (cause that's how I shop!) - my ever favourite eBay gave me a few options but I liked the polka dot look of this one (the transparent ones where interesting too).

I was looking for gumboots/rain boots as well but I didn't like how they were always so wide in the calf so I chose normal faux leather boots with a little heel, these ones also go over you knee so less chance of rain getting in, plus if you get some wool boot toppers it will further keep you tootsies dry!

Fashion Theme: Summer Goth

So I wanted to wear something dark, but it was quite warm (which is normally for the tropics)...creation was this ensemble. I love dark menacing clothes as much as I like sweet light clothes, so in fact I have no preferences when it come to fashion, whatever goes. I also came to the realisation that my mirror was really dirty (I have since cleaned it) after looking back at these photos, can't wait for my new smartphone tripod!

Fashion Theme: Pop Punk

I was actually inspired by the 60's when I thought of this outfit. I saw the hair trolling through google and thought that with the fringe it had a modern beehive vibe, I added a sweet ribbon tied in a bow around the bun. I am practising to get the liquid liner really thin at the moment, but you could get wild with the eyes to go more the 60's way.
