    Hooded top- ideas please

    I think they could be very cute tucked into complimentary coloured swing trousers, the heyday range are gorgeous, as seen on the lovely Fleur. You could embellish them with some little vintage style appliqués, buttons or trimmings. 3/4 length sleeves might look more vintage. :)

    anyone wear grey hair?

    I love grey hair when its the right shade/style. They key I think is matching the shade of grey with your skin. Often the natural shade of grey can drain the face of colour, or sometimes it grows out perfectly, its a gamble! I saw a woman last night on the train and she had a few streaks of grey...
