Ladies - I didn't expect all this dissing on the poor old scrunchie, BUT to be fair, scrunchies always did have the worst elastic inside them, and they never really held the ponytail firmly. I used to rock the ribbon in my hair when I was in kindergarten, but now ribbons tied in bows around ponytails make me look.....well, childish. Much better to tie them round your neck! I also momentarily considered a foray back into headband territory on the weekend. My friend Claire and I spotted some cute (very thin) colourful plastic headbands at a shop, and proceeded to try them on. Hmmm, cute but I just don't think I can get away with it at 30. I also had a flashback to when I thought it was cool to push all my hair back with the headband to proudly show off my five-head (this is what Darin and I call big foreheads). It was an embarassing time.
We have reached capacity numbers in the swap (45, I think). See I was very lenient (I'm a pushover really) and went over the 40 person limit. I think we have odd numbers, so I guess if there was one other person who REALLY wants to participate that would be fine, but I can always be a partner to two people. I am considering making my hair accessories - there are so many cute vintage buttons and beads just begging to be wired onto bobby pins...we'll see.
Is Veronica Mars on tonight? I am very desperate to watch the last few episodes. That girl is just so cute and perky.
scrunchies remind me of the sex and the city episode during season 6.. have you seen it? carrie completely beats down her boyfriend because the heroine of his book wore a scrunchie. totally priceless.. and i would never be caught dead with a scrunchie these days! way 1995.. or earlier! :) i may make my hair accessories as well. we'll see.
