I love having long hair, something about it is just kind of fun. But some days I tire of it and get that urge to chop it all off. Lucky for me, I'm pretty good at resisting it, so, instead, I've learned to fake a bob. Curly hair is often the best for this little trick, but for a straight hair demonstration check out this blog post. I use this tutorial to make this hairstyle, making a few adjustments to make it look a little more natural. I have one more outfit post coming up with this faux bob style, which is the best one in my opinion. 

This outfit is a little out of my normal dress code, mainly because there's jeans in the deal. I've always had a soft spot for the edgier look, the black lace and the combat boots just seal the deal. I wore it out for a night one the town: a movie and some coffee, plus a little side action of book shopping. How can anyone resist bookstores? Especially ones with coffee inside.

So while it isn't a movie, my most recent obsession has been the science fiction TV show Eureka. It's parasitic  I've had a hard time watching anything else because this awesome, quirky show is so good. It's my kind of show, where the characters have great depth and the stories are unusual. I'm trying to get everyone I know addicted to it. 

As for this outfit, it was chosen when my best friend and I went for a movie. I wanted something comfortable and easily layer-able (not a word?) for the late night. So I mixed this lace dress with my skirt. It was surprisingly comfortably, especially through out the movie, which during my waist probably expanded greatly from all the popcorn I ate. I knew I should have gotten a small instead of a medium. Popcorn, my greatest foe, after ladybugs. But that's a story for another time.
