It's alarming, honestly, how charming she can be.

Dress*: c/o Missikon // Necklace: Rock N Rose, £18 // Headband: Accessorize (old!)

You may or may not have noticed that my hair has miraculously 'grown' overnight. I did it. I finally bit the bullet and bought some extensions! I feel like I've tried every remedy under the sun to try and get my hair to grow faster and although I've found the sea kelp supplements did seem to work, I failed to remember to take them the required three times a day. I opted for 20 inch extensions because my hair is rather long anyway, but I've always dreamt of belly button length hair. I still need to dip dye the top of them to blend a little better with my hair but I haven't had the time yet/I'm too lazy to.

This little black lace dress was sent to me by my latest sponsor Missikon. For some reason my wardrobe has always lacked in a little black lace number and I'm not quite sure why. This dress is perfect and ever so versatile! Yesterday I wore this with my crochet white boots and tie dye socks for a little, casual shopping trip in town. I've recently started doing the 30 Day Shred workout DVD every night with my housemate. We're only on Day 4 but I can already feel the difference! My body is definitely a lot stronger and firmer than it was a week ago! However, it is still early days but I will certainly keep you updated throughout the 30 days. Has anyone else tried the 30 Day Shred?

  8. Am so jealous of your hair! I have been trying to grow mine for a year,and am taking hair supplements too! I think I may have to bite the bullet as well and try extensions, do you find them easy to wear daily?

  9. Oh you can hardly even tell that they are extensions! They blend so well with your hair...gah I should invest in extensions by my hair is still too short/awkward growing out stage. Love your dress too, nice and simples and I'm a fan of the necklace. Can't beat a good cross.

  10. Your dress is lovely and your hair looks amazing!! They blend in so well with your hair and if you hadn't said you wouldn't be able to tell that they were extensions! Good luck with the 30 Day Shred, I have her Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism dvd and that's quite good but tempted to give the 30 Day Shred a go :) xx

  11. For extensions, these look amazing! I've always been a bit funny with extensions, sometimes they can look so tacky! I debated them for ages, and then bought some, but would only wear it with my hair curly and backcombed (there wasn't much difference) but now I'm accepting them more, but in all honesty Leigh, if this was the first time on your blog, I wouldn't have noticed the difference! You look absolutely beautiful :)
    I also love love the dress xxxx

  20. I honestly wouldn't have thought these were extentions if you hadn't mentioned it! They work really well with the dip dye. I'm on a never ending quest to get my hair to grow. When I look back at pictures from about 6 months ago then I can tell the difference but its such a s---l---o---w process! Love your outfit by the way
