grey is the new black

 

No, I am not talking about 50 Shades of Grey. It’s all about grey hair!

 

I am obsessed with beautiful women and grey hair. Especially in combination with tanned skin and icy blue eyes (which, admittedly are mostly contacts)… I have been eying with grey hair for a while now, there are only three things that have stopped me so from going grey immediately.

 

First of all the job, I work in a creative industry so I might be able to get away with it but not sure what the clients would say… or my boss! :/

 

Secondly grey hair is 1) extremely difficult to achieve (Bleach.Bleach.Bleach) and 2) extremely difficult to maintain. It washes out easily and fades quickly and can easily become green if you use the wrong product. Given that I work out every day and have to wash my hair daily that seems kind of difficult.

 

Thirdly I have finally gotten back to my beloved long hair, the last ombre dye is fading out at the bottom and my hair is finally long, healthy and natural again. Sigh.

 

Pictures are from Pinterest but check out the lovely Samantha (pic 3 & 5) on Instagram and Youtube!

 

What do you think? Do or don’t? Are you pro or contra grey hair?

a roaring 20ies epicness

I mentioned this many times before. I have the most amazing friends. And they make the most amazing parties!!

Especially Sven and Stefanie (>>her blog)! They are the masters of Beijing house parties (partly because of amazing house *cough* *cough*, but especially because of their never ending passion in organizing the best house party YET. After I was not in Beijing at their first themed party (dead celebrities), I vowed I wouldn’t miss any other, they have topped themselves with an incredible Hawaii party that nobody thought could get any better. However, they still managed to up their game and threw this amazing 20ies Gatsby bash! It was also a late birthday party for Stefanie, including champagne pyramid, drop hems and even burlesque dancers from our friend’s group Moonglow Burlesque!

Check out these great pics taken by our talented friend Laurent Hou:


What I loved the most is that all of our friends (we were probably around 50 people in the end) made an effort to dress up! Even the boys – you know guys are usually not too much into dressing up – were bow tie clad and rocking those suspenders! Everyone looked so glamorous and fancy! A truly amazing party. I am dying to see what you come up with next guys! :P
