Hey I have that blouse!! I have it in green too. Does yours kind of fade at the top and then get darker right below the shoulder line? Both of mine do and I can't figure out if it's the shirt or I got two odd ones with fading...
Love that haircolor too! I can't get away with red like that. My complexion is too dark.

i think you could , and beside pale skin is beautiful, most asain people try so hard to saty out of the sun to get thier skin milky white, thats why they wear those pointy hats:eek:fftopic: ... haha ok back on topic. i think you could pull off a burgondy brwon red very nicely, and pluss it makes most colors in your outfit stand out more.

i have i think a burgondy red, or it might have been brighter. my hair is naturally red, blonde, and brown. but then in the winter it turns dark nut brown, but most of the time in the summer it gets dryed out bc i go swimming alot so my blonde hairs look like gray hairs although im only 18, haha.
but that was totallt:eek:fftopic: . :p im beginging to take a liking to that face.:)

Ahh Boombebe.. you do have a rather light natural color, that's why your red looks so great! My natural color is darker than yours.
The stripes look awesome. I wish I had some clients that wanted me to do some fun stuff like that!

Lil MissA, you look adorbale, the hair is perfect!

well i rather have it stay darker then this, it fades and then i get dark brown stripes in with the red, (and my roots grown in fast) so its somewhat of a hassle to keep it red, but i cant stop :p

lol. I don't have very pale skin though :) My skin tone is very olive and tans fairly dark in the summer. It's the Italian and Native American fighting with the Irish and Eastern European :). I have an appt with my hair stylist next week....maybe I'll see what she thinks about a little more red...

Fingerwaves!

Okay, I had no makeup on (hence the "hiding") and didn't actually style the ends, but here's attempt number one. I'll post a better picture when I've got the whole makeup/outfit thing going on WITH the hair. :D
