Pale Monster




shoes, jumper - vintage via Etsy // blouse and coat - vintage, thrifted
Four weeks in SoCal have flown by! The mister and I are spending the day packing up, figuring out what we can cram back into our suitcases and what must be mailed back to our tiny apartment in Oakland. I'm also in the middle of dyeing my hair blue. So we'll see how that goes. We took some quick snaps in front of my parents' the other day, me determined to shoot in the full sunlight because I love how bold and sharp the colors come out even though all that Sharp Boldness probably burned my retinas into oblivion. I'm wearing just a couple of the many treats I thrifted this time around—an acid-hued 70s blouse and ridiculous fuzzy blue club kid jacket that I have been wearing nonstop. I think I actually think that it goes with everything in my closet, and by god do NOT make me prove it to you.

I for one would like to see that fuzzy coat on here more. A remix on its versatility perhaps? I love color. Let me know it DOES go with everything in your closet! That would mean I too have things that go with everything ^_^

Hi Christina!

I just came across your blog, like, last week. I think that it (and you) are rad!

Welcome to the blue hair brigade.

Mine's probably a little brighter in real life than in those photos. It starts out pretty dark but, oddly enough, amps up in brightness over time. I think that a some bleach is good, even for dark colors, cause it gives it a bit more to "hold onto". I bleach the roots as they come in and use Special Effects "Electric Blue"- by far the most true and long lasting blue dye I've come across. And, I think that you can totally buy it at Hot Topic...?

Good luck with that, kid! Thanks for digging my stuff! It's always awesome when someone you don't know is like, "Great job."
