The Frozen North


Living in this mild climate I find myself longing once again for real cold and wind whipped winters (oh nice aliteration). I have always love cold and snow and the only part of school I remember liking was visiting Anja or cold autumn afternoons and taking walks through the crispy countryside.
.

.

I love the quality or autumn/winter light and the smell thats carried on the wind. I have recently taken to longing for the irish countryside but also (I have my whole life) wanting to go further north.
..

.

..

Norway, Iceland, Newfound land....


Did you ever see The Shipping News? Although the book delivered a better story line the imagery used in the film had a profound affect on me. I feel a connection with these cold isolated places, but how can one miss a place they have never been?

..

So heres some icey style I admire...

White and glowing interiors

The Great Blonde Debate






I was born blonde but have since been through pretty much every colour on the spectrum and have settles into a simple dark brown with my ever present bride of franknstein streak. However every year at around this time I get the urge to go blonde. I want
to look etheral and angerlic and maybe kinda trendy ...


But I always get this:


I know you brunnets will agree going from dark to light isnt easy.
Anway go any idea what I should do? Try it or stay in the dark side?And does anyone have and dark inspiration that will encourage me to stick with brown?...
