Red/purple has long been a favorite color. You do look young in the photo, I would have thought collegiate as well. The hair is lovely, but I love your curls, they are somehow a little more edgy and interesting.Mardelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04850551308931710502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-68288724206588779982008-12-02T19:13:00.000-08:002008-12-02T19:13:00.000-08:00Karen: As I said on your post, after seeing what y...Karen: As I said on your post, after seeing what you can do, I'm embarrassed to be tooting my "bold mixing" -- you're an inspiration!<BR/>And I'll pass the kisses on to my new little angel on Friday when I get to see her again.<BR/>Miss C: Those booties sound great -- I never wear yellow (or orange) because it does nasty things to my complexion, but I love how it can make other items pop -- so cheery. I'll be watching to see what you decide to wear yours with so hope you post about it.materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-59688162371511519612008-12-02T10:45:00.000-08:002008-12-02T10:45:00.000-08:00I have a pair of yellow L.A.M.B.

But it's always fun to try something else out at the hairstylist's, right?<BR/>Couture Allure: Thanks for stopping by -- you've got a great blog, lots to check out there. And yes, I can tell grandmotherhood is going to be a rich experience.<BR/>Enc: I wore the purple scarf alone today and noticed that the red in my hair bounced off it -- a fun combination I'm going to play more with -- zingy, as you say!<BR/>Alison: ditto for me with the greys, blacks, and browns, but I've been trying to get colour in via scarves and other accessories. You know I covet your red gloves!<BR/>Cybill: Sounds as if you, Alison, and I play around at different ends of the spectrum -- from one end to the other, no middle ground!<BR/>LBR: Thank you, thank you! Chic, gorgeous, radiant, and YOUNGER?!!! I'm going to wear these colours all the time!<BR/>Duchesse: I think with this cut I prefer the curls as well -- the trouble is they're not really ready to bounce after a cut-and-colour, so we usually try something else.<BR/>Thomas: Thanks.materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-3000740893360010032008-12-01T18:56:00.000-08:002008-12-01T18:56:00.000-08:00Suits you well.Suits you well.TheSundayBesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06883901266633855078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-42924884628389755752008-12-01T12:25:00.000-08:002008-12-01T12:25:00.000-08:00You do look great...and I prefer the curls, so dis...You do look great...and I prefer the curls, so distinctive.

Are you able to replicate this style on your own? I find after I've been to the hairdresser I try not to wash my hair for 2 or 3 days, just to keep the volume in! I love purple and red together. Lately I've been kind of brown; must get out my red merino wool v-neck sweater and my purple pashmina.

I wish I could tolerate that much material around my neck; this is a look I'd love to play with.<BR/><BR/>I also love the little bit of red in your hair.
