The Scene

For all those sisters out there that have a little extra unff in them. Have you wondered how to do the big punk/emo hair? Are you into fun makeup? Do you have a motley coloured outfits? Or are you just trying to figure out your own style? The here are some style vid that may help you and some fun music too (I like real big fish). I am trying to decide what style I wont to cut my hair too. I'm leaning towards fohock, and maybe going blue or white. I tried to dye my hair punky red but it did not stick, to my floor yes (it exploded when I tried to open it) to my head nope. That week I dyed my hair with henna for over 6h and nothing. Chemical dye for dark hair was also a nothing. I have brown hair witch makes this all even funnier.

I had this style before it became "scene" but I was to lazy to keep it up. not to mention I can easily become a mullet if you are not careful! Just say no to mullets! say no~

Now I am trying to come up with a new look for the hot weather. I think I am going to chop it short and funky. I think with white and Blue highlights, or maybe a white/blue coon tale highlights... Or heck all White (thats going to kill my hair). I just need to come up with something hijab friendly... mo-hawk hijab is funny.

I had this on in grad 12. I remember doing my hair all spiky for my year book and the lady just saying one sec then coming over and flattened my hair and made it all geeky! I will never look at it the same way. Though my graduation hair was all 60 rocker cool (rocking the tartan tie). My hair was a dark pinky purple/brown and spread out with the layers.

I like this langth it has been over 5 years since its been this short.

I like this one. It reminds me of an old do. I just did not have that much layering.

Cool style for curly hair - 3 Minute Fohawk !

I would Love to have hair like this. I wonder if I could go this way...Tight curl fohawk look but shorter.

Pretty/Punk Hair :)

I like doing this do but it takes lots of bobby pins and is not hijab friendly. So its for stay at home or just throwing a light shala over from point A to B.

OMG make up time! Same as above i did not make these. Go to there Youtube channels for more.

A bit more Polyvore and other stuff

Haha, I really didn't know what to name this post but at least it's straightforward. I hope you all don't mind but this one isn't totally about fashion.

I just wanted to share some more of the stuff I've been doing on Polyvore with you lovely people. For the most part, I've been creating slightly more "artsy" sets, some of which are fashion related.

I've made a lot since the last ones I showed you, but here are a few.

Sorry about the extra white space around some of them, that's just how they were imported.


I'd also like to take this opportunity to encourage you to take a little time to vote for a fellow fashion blogger, the very fabulous Laurel Stovall of It's Her Factory.




She's competing for the top spot in the online V Magazine Supreme Management Model Search for 2008.

You can vote for her by clicking on the banner in the sidebar on the right. Thanks!

No longer a Polyvorgin...

For a while now, I've been seeing a few fashion blogs such as The Vintage Society and Fashiontribes feature stylish outfit collages created on Polyvore.

At first, I didn't pay much attention to it but eventually I let my curiosity get the better of me as it usually does. I started off slow, just putting items together to get a feel of the program. This has now turned into a full blown addiction with seemingly endless hours spent on this site.

Before I went on Polyvore, I had the impression that it was just a styling program but I soon realized that it allows much more freedom to experiment and be creative.

With a huge variety of images to choose from and a tool to import your own, creating these collages (or sets as they're called) is very simple and easy.

Normally, I would use Photoshop for these kinds of things but I think it's a whole lot more fun on Polyvore!

Below are some of the sets I've created.
