@rae, thanks. Now I just need to carry on like this
@MsMaven, I was in stitches after your comment. Yes, to some extent I probably felt I could whip some things in order in all-gray look! There was something very no-nonsense about how I felt in it. Not in a "don't mess with me" sense, but "I'm not buying all those tricks, so cut to the chase". I am pretty sure Freud & Co. could have had a lot of fun observing the effects in and around me on the day - I could physically feel the extra confidence I somehow gained.
Greece, thanks for the reminder, now let me check where I can squeeze that one in! It drives me insane
@Aida, *grin*, this theme made perfect sense after getting the new do. I'm glad you like it. And the fringe re. the outfit #3, how about achieving all red look with that red cardigan (your take on 50s) plus red skirt if you have it... you already have b&w pumps and I'm sure there must be some b&w scarf somewhere too
@rakushka, thanks.
