I got this black t-shirt a long time ago at TJ Maxx for about $5 bucks and completely forgot about it. I rediscovered it in my closet this morning -- don't you love when that happens? -- and paired it with my trusty black blazer from Zara.
On an unrelated note, do you think it's time for a hair trim? I feel like I just got it cut, but I guess growth is more noticeable when hair is short to begin with. Let me know what you think!
Love the red bag! Very seasonal and cheery :) I think I'd be getting a trim but that's because I love having salon-fresh hair, esp with all the holiday parties happening at the moment (is anyone else's cocktail dress wardrobe getting a massive workout??!) - if you wanted to wait until after the New Year, it'd be fine.
Thanks Alexis! I almost wore a green jacket today before realizing how christmasy that was... now that would be VERY seasonal! Hehe. Thanks for your thoughts, and you're right -- having fresh hair is great during the holidays!
Love your outfit (as always)! I have the same bag and find it to be so useful (and a nice pop of colour, too). Congratulations on your find. I have pretty much the same haircut & length that you do ( - no, I'm not your stalker :) - ) and I'm having it trimmed every 4-6 weeks so it stays in shape. As you already noticed, after a while the hair starts hitting the shoulder and I like it to be just a tad above. So I'd say, you should try to get it trimmed a bit if that annoys you, too. I love love love this haircut on you, by the way! Suits you so much.
Hi Helena, thanks so much for your thoughtful comment! Are we doppelgangers? Hehe! That's good to know you trim your hair every 4-6 weeks. I was used to cutting mine 2-3 times a year when it was long... such a big difference!
Well, you know what a fan I am of TJ Maxx!! Great find. And great pairing with the Zara blazer. Hope you have a very happy holiday Bettina and see you soon in 2013!
Cute outfit!

Thanks Diana!
Deletei love how the red pops against your darker outfit!
ReplyDeletei think your hair is cute as is - but if it bugs you then take it up a few inches. :)
Thanks Laura! The hair has started to flip a little where it hits my shoulders. I'm going to think it over for a few days!
