So here’s physical evidence of my new year’s style resolution – to embrace change & try new things. 

I’ve been fighting the curl in my hair for the past eight years or so. Most people don’t even know that I have curly hair! But now, I feel like it’s time to work with the curls, rather than against them. They’re a little bit crazy but they have a certain romance. And I think they work quite well with my favourite Lover dress. 

The trick is to get the curls to form ringlets rather than frizz. I used a curl amplifier from Muk (it smells like fruit salad!), which I scrunched into my hair as it was drying. Et voilà, manageable curls.

I still feel rather self-conscious without my sleek hair, so please be kind! 

(Oh, & the soft focus in this portrait? I’ve been playing with my newly Frankensteined camera – a Diana lens on my DSLR. It makes everything look wonderfully dreamy, although I suspect I would get an even nicer result on a sunny day. Turn your DSLR into a Frankenstein monster here.)
