So the most wanted Hollywood hairdo of the moment is Katie Holmes bob.  I'm considering it.  Of course, I have to consider that if I get Katie Holmes haircut it won't miraculously make the rest of me look like Katie Holmes.  I've really been appreciating the whole 20's, Zelda, flapper, Art Deco thing lately though.  I might even learn how to do the Charleston. 

I have debating on bangs already.  I have had long sideswept bangs for a long time but now they've grown out to almost ear length.  You see lately, instead of actually doing my hair, it's just a 24/7 pony tail.  Okay I take it out when I go to sleep.  But generally if it's not in a pony tail it just lays there looking flat and styleless. 

These are the important decisions and considerations that keep me awake at night.  Or maybe the other way around.  I can't sleep so I get on the net and do a looky loo. 

I am still too challenged to get my picture to show up right.  I click the insert image icon, paste in the photo butcket and looky here yet another box with a red x.  Is it me?  Really?  You can tell me.  I promise I won't get mad.  Think of how much more fabulous this blog would be with a cutie picture of Katie Holmes front and center.  Jeesh. 

<a href="http://s60.photobucket.com/albums/h3/heyitzhannah/?action=view&current=katie.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h3/heyitzhannah/katie.jpg" border="0" alt="katie holmes"></a>

So let's see, instead of clogging up the forums and recent posts list with a bunch of bs, I will post any other style ideas on this very same blog.  Imagine that.  

Bowtie blouses - I don't care what whowhatwear says these are just old lady looking. 

Oooh, I did get the most fabulous pair of big, black sunglasses this weekend.  I would take a picture but then you would have to see my flat and lifeless hairdo and my glamorous nightgown.  I suppose I could take a picture of them by themselves but that takes more effort than I'm willing to put into this midnight rambling about fashion (or lack of it) post.  Of course, they are cheap sunglasses.  I don't take good enough care of sunglasses to buy expensive ones and how many people even really know the difference between designer and cheapies.  Not the cheap beer swilling, high school educated, Hillary voting crowd I hang with anyway.  Snort - did you notice the way I pretended I have friends in that last sentence - lolz.  I have to aspire to have low-class fake friends.   Pathetic, isn't it? 

I also got some cutie, little slip on red polka dot tennis shoes.  Cute and comfortable, what more can a girl want.  The crocs are officially retired.  They will only be worn for yardwork.  I don't care how comfortable they are.   I don't care if they were a present.  They are just too ugly.  Ick.  I can't believe I used to wear those out places - what was I thinking?  They are done, done, duh, done.  Crocs should only be worn by girls under 8 with stripey socks.  Look I just made a new fashion rule.  Write that one down beside don't wear white after labor day. 

Look at how long I can type about nothing.  That could have been like 20 blogs - on crocs, on sunglasses, on red polka dot tennis shoes, on katie holmes hair, on sunglasses, on not being able to post a picture on your blog because you're too challenged, on pretend friends and the pretend people who care about your pretend friends... okay maybe I should try to go to bed again.  Really I was just laying there wide awake.  I decided to live without ambien.  Look for a future post ... on insomnia.

LOL! Bored, aren't you?! I'm just glad this is not another article by you know who!lol!

I like the bob myself. Currently I wear a flip-up bob, with side part. My hair is still growing in. But like you, I've gotten tired of my look, I do that too! I'm considering braids - the hairstyle I wear when I'm in between hair growth and bored hairstyles!lol!

Hmmm, sunglasses, I have tons, tons...seriously! My eyes are very sensitive so I'm never without a pair, even when I lived in the cold city! You could borrow one of mine...I usually go pretty stylish with those! Just get a pair of fakes from one of those discount stores, make sure it's a good fake too!


Hmm...what else did you talk about....oh yeah, polka dot shoes, believe it or not, I have a pair of black and white flats with a cute bow tie in the front! Purchased that a few months ago but I'm over it because they are not comfortable, so I'm giving them away! My girlfriend already claimed them otherwise I would ship them to you....that's unless you don't wear twice worn shoes...and probably not the same size...never mine!lol!

Yes, time for me to retire to bed...hope you get some sleep. I have some tips on getting your hair nice and shiny...will share when I'm more alert!

LOL! Loca, you crack me up!

Katie Holmes' do is really cute. Once upon a time I sported that do and would go back to it if I decided my hair was worth the styling effort. Making curly hair straight is a pain...especially when ya got lots!

I have my one pair of Oakleys. I keep meaning to get a pair of big, bug eye glasses but they take over my face. I look like a little girl playing with Mommy's sunglasses.

Crocs... Ewwwww! Apparently the new generation of Crocs are stylish and sleek. We'll have to see. The polka dot sneaks sound like just my thing, tho!

Well you managed to make me lol and insult me in the same breath.

I'll have you know I just discovered crocs for myself and have a HOT PINK pair...I mean if you're going to wear rubber shoes, then by golly they should be a screaming rubber color.

I really don't know what to say....I mean what kind of person doesn't like wearing rubber shoes?  Shesh.

hahahaha

About the hair...really really liking that bangs are coming back in....seriously, I see way too many five heads that should have some coverage.  Well, I guess if there's another terrorists attack we could just have planes landing on all those big ass foreheads.  Shesh.

I never liked the flat, no bangs look.  It is soooo unattractive.

As for pony tail, I do the same thing.  Except mine looks more like a duck's butt.  I say I'm going to let my hair grow out, but it grows so SLOW I get fed up and have it hacked off.  I  need a haircut right now...but gah, I hate getting my hair done.  It is like paying someone to make me look funny(er).

Oh well, I hope your ambien addiction is over, you drug addict you.  hahahaha.  Seriously, I hope you get some rest.  Your mind runs a million miles an hour I can tell....the only way I can sleep well without the drama, is to work myself to death.  I try not to sit for longer than 30 minutes at any one time during daylight hours.

I take multiple walks a day, house work, am doing yard work constantly (LOVE SUMMER!) and blah blah blah.  Ya know the drill.

If I didn't wear myself out, I'd never sleep.  My mind doesn't like down time.

You think I'd be smarter.  Hmmmmm.

Oh, the imagery...the imagery.

The best thing about bangs... Instant 10 years off your age! Hide them frown lines!

I like to think of them as surprised lines thank ya verra much.   You know, like life is so utterly wonderfully eventful, it etched lines into my forehead. The more lines you have, the more jealous everyone with utterly un-wonderful lives are...

I absolutely refuse to believe its from banging my head against the wall of frustration.
That after all, irons them out.

Right when I think, "Yeah, I don't care for Katie Holmes much" I watch Thank You For Smoking and remember why I do, after all, like her.

I think she is way cute.  Maybe not the best actress in the world but very pretty.

I just called to make the appointment.  Like Sheryl Crowe says ...a change will do me good.

Sorry, I didn't mean to insult.   I think you are right.  My crocs are just boring navy blue not HOT PINK.  I still say you have to wear stripey knee high socks with them though. They are comfortable and I noticed that they now have jelly shoes back at the store.  Nothing like plastic or rubber shoes to make your feet sweaty. 

 

LOL! Loca, you crack me up!
  Thanks, I feel better to know that I don't just crack myself up. 

LOL! Bored, aren't you?! I'm just glad this is not another article by you know who!lol!

I was tempted to title it "On katie holmes hair" but then I thought maybe no one would read my blatherings.

Hey, when did bangs go out of style in the first place!?

I like your rambles. It makes us all feel good about our late night thinking!

I hope never since I've had bangs for about forever.

I'll have to post a link since I'm still photo challenged. My appointment is on Saturday. I'm already wussing out on the bob. I'm thinking of getting my signature long sideswept bangs, keeping my length but getting a trim. I'll probably change my mind a million times before Saturday though. What is annoying is that I always have a series of great hair days right before my appointment.
