Within 2 weeks' time, I've gone from platinum blond to dark auburn (funny, it looks lighter in these photos than in real life...) The transition is quite a process, but getting there: two color appointments so far, and probably one more in a couple of weeks, as dark color lifts a lot on previously-bleached hair. After that, it should just be regular maintenance. Whew!I've shocked a few people around here, as they barely recognize me, and think I'm a bit of an anomaly anyway! But I've gotten many compliments from friends- thanks, y'all! I've never had darker hair before and I'm quite enjoying it.
About the outfit: This dress turned out to be much better as a skirt. Found it at Bloomingdale's. What attracted me was its two-toned hue. I added the navy shirt for "3-dimensional color".

Lovely outfit!
The decorative object on the wall looks wonderful behind you on that first picture; I like it looks like it's part of your dress.
I like the darker hair color, exposes your glowing complexion.
Love the hair!!!
Oh, wow, Stephanie, you look GORGEOUS!!!!
I've been feeling so guilty, I haven't really been visiting anyone's blogs (or not nearly enough lately) and what a wonderful surprise to come here to say hi before shutting this baby down, and there you are... a gorgeous brunette!
If I do say so myself: I think this colour suits you beautifully. And I love it with three shades of navy. (but I would say that: I'm a brunette & love navy, in every shade until it's midnight blue/black). Gorgeous outfit, lovely post - and nice BIG photos!!
Thank you for your sweet, sweet photos. Away @ the in-laws in deepest Herefordshire for the weekend but soon as Monday comes, let's skype!!
