What do you think about my new header and backgound? I've decided to change it but if you don't like it I'll get back to the old style... Tell me what do you think...
the old one
Isn't it good to change some time or do you think it's better to stay always in the same way? Are you brave or not? What have you done that you think it's a big change for yourself? It could be anything: home moving, quit your job to follow your dreams... What?
I have long long hair and I'm thinking to cut them or to change the color... I'd love to but at the end I feel secure with my long hair and with my color... I'm not that brave... I'd love to have short hair that are defenitely more practice and easy to treat especially in winter and , actually, I had it for few years but now I can't. Long hair are my strenght as for Samson in the Greek mythology (do you know the history?)!
*if you know where that pic come from, please let me know*What about you?
oh lucky you! that ornament is adorable!
RispondiEliminaand love the new header! change is good sometimes :)
i like the new look... it's important to renew and revamp if you ever feel like things are getting boring or old, or if they don't feel like "you" anymore. i just changed the look of my blog too, and it made me very happy to remake things exactly the way i was feeling about them now, in the present. do what makes you happy!
RispondiEliminai don't know if i'm very brave, or whether i embrace change fully or am still a little scared sometimes, but the biggest thing i probably did was change cities and universities for love. it was scary and a big leap, but i'm glad i did it and now after 5 years we're newly married and incredibly happy! so that was an adventure that payed off :)

yes do it! i love change and so am always floating around searching for it- i need to be happy with the same a bit more it think. but i am always changing cutting and colouring my hair i guess it helps one of my best friends is my hair dresser. i'd love to have long beautiful hair but im tooo impatient to wait for it to grow! and yes i have done something out of my comfort zone this past weekend that was BIG for me! i did a bungy jump which is a NZ thing where you jump from a ridiculous height with nothing but a rubber band tied around your ankles. for me it was to conquer my fears of heights although im not sure it did that but it was still a massive accomplishment to step off that bridge! an by doing that i learnt something about myself and about my future and i was able to share this experience with my good friend, which sounds silly but it was truely amazing what it meant to the both of us. anyway check out my pics on my page hehe p.s congrats on the prize how exciting! pottery barn is just something we hear about on the movies way over here in nz how exciting to own something from there!!!!
RispondiEliminahi there!
RispondiEliminai posted the recipe for cream cheese frosting on today's post with a little shot out to you :-)
also i'd LOVE for you to make a shameless loves list :-)
Congrats on you win, they are adorable! I love you new look! Have a sweet day!
RispondiEliminaJ'adore the new look! And I hope you reveal your new hair too!
RispondiEliminaBises!
Thank you, girlie! You are always so sweet! And the ornaments actually arrived today (10 days early!) - so I will be shipping them off this week!
RispondiEliminaI really like the look! Made me think about my own background design ... I am starting to get a little bored with those branches...
Let me know when you get the package.
Happy, happy!
OX, Monika
Thanks so much for mention me on your blog... I like the new look,
RispondiEliminaIt's good and important to do some changes wherever and whenever you can. It keeps you alive !!! I need changes in life although it takes me a while to make them… l need to have around me the old familiar things like my family and friends and to do the changes in clothes, hair, music and so on…
Congratulations on your prize!! How lovely!
RispondiEliminaI love the new look - very classy.
I love change and yearn for more change and adventure in my life sometimes. I like to learn, to go out of my comfort zone and do new things.

Love the new look blog but keep your gorgeous long hair...just have a few highlights or make some little change, xv.
RispondiEliminaYay for winning! Woo Hoo!
RispondiEliminaI like both your blog layouts, both are so pretty - I couldn't choose between them.
As for me, change is something I am on the fence about. I always worry about it, but then eventually do it - sometimes I love it (like moving from Australia to the US), and sometimes I don't (back in college I got my hair cut in a super-short Pixie Cut).
congrats, darling! I love pottery barn :)
RispondiEliminahave a gorgeous day, xoxo
Don't you just LOVE winning stuff.
RispondiEliminaI almost never win usually but this year I've had some long overdue luck!
great giveaway! And I like your new blog look. It's a great change. I've been thinking about what to change mine to look like but I just have no idea what to do.

Congratulations on winning the giveaway! I almost bought those the other day. They are really pretty! Enjoy!
RispondiEliminaI love your new header and background! Change can be good. I had super short hair for a long time and now it is growing longer (to my shoulder at the moment). Before I wasn't afraid to cut it now I am because it's taking so long. But I like to change the color - dark red right now.

RispondiEliminaI try to be brave every day..I have to push myself sometimes..I try to 'be better'.I also have 'long' hair, but not too brave to get a short, easy hair..Have a great weekend! Love//Eva
