you have all been super supportive during an emotional change, a big change. i'm fully recovered, and enjoying being a short haired girl. i know i asked the members to help me pick a new profile picture, but the members' choice wouldn't crop properly in the selection box. i went ahead and selected another that is very close. next time, i'll make sure the picture fits before asking you to use your valuable time.

and, that next time is now. hope you don't mind.

i've been invited to a party on the 20th, and hope to officially unveil the new stephanie. the hair is a given, there is only one way to wear it, and i love that. i want to make the update to my favourite party and date outfit for that occassion, too. some of you have probably seen the outfit already, but for those who haven't, it's in the first two picures, below. i think the boots need updating, and i've already bought one pair that i think are more appropriate and up to date. they can be seen in this link; http://www.countryoutfitter.co.....oot-cognac. these are the ones i got in NYC thanks to a couple of very helpful colleagues. i would like a couple more pairs and hope you can help me decide.

which do you think? don't be afraid to say both. i'll be making room in my closet for them by getting rid of the knee high Chloe boots in the first two pictures.

if you know of other boots you think would work, please feel free to tell me

thank you all who look and and voice your opinions.
