Remember this post I wrote a few weeks ago about being too old for pink hair and fresh tattoos? Well, after thinking and talking and “talking” with lots of lovely ladies and a few gents, there’s been a shift. I don’t think I’m too late. I think I was caught up in what (luckily) usually doesn’t get to me or impact my decisions…what “other people”* might think.
So, I’m like, yes. I want a tattoo. I want it to go on the underside of my left forearm. I’m going to design it myself and I’ve been toying with different ideas, but I’m pretty sure that these are my inspiration images.

As far as pink hair goes, maybe I’ll do a version of that too. In my own way. I’m at least going to try hair chalking.
What’s next? Well, with a new tattoo and pink hair, you can’t expect me to waltz around in public wearing yoga pants and no makeup all the time. Note to Drew: At home I will still be wearing pajama pants and no makeup. I need to go shopping. But first, I’m going to try to figure out my Style Statement. I don’t have time to read a book about this, so I’m going to make up my own method to discover it.
Have you guys ever felt like this? Ready to do a complete makeover? Like your current look and none of your past looks work anymore?
