Hair cut....

So...I am really lazy about my hair. I only go to the hairdressers every 4-6 months, becasue firstly, secondly, it's expensive and lastly, because I hate small talk and I get bored chatting to the hairdresser lol... Anyway, I pretty much always have long hair, because its much easier to tie it up in a bun when I can't be bothered, than have to wash, dry, straighten etc short/fringed cuts... Even if I see pictures of Scarrlett Johannsson and think "Oh yeah I could pull that off..." In reality I know better...So pretty much the only interesting thing that happens to my hair are the colour changes! I can never decide if I want to be brunette or blonde, so inevitably I chop and change between the two... This time I was going to keep it blonde for longer, but then, after looking for inspiration on the net I decided it was time for a move back over to the dark side.... I think it may have been the Taylor Momsen hair that did it for me hahaha....

Lucette Cyber Warrior Collection

Guess what...! Lucette's SS 2010 collection is called Cyber Warrior, and is apparently designed for princesses on a Galaxy Quest, and was inspired by Daryl Hannah in Blade Runner and Lara Croft in Tomb Raider.... 

I loooooved Blade Runner- Deckard is definately Harrison Ford's best role hands down in my opinion- (I know I know, he was in Star Wars and Indiana Jones), as Blade Runner is still so incredible, as it is challenging and relevant to ethics of technology and the direction our society appears to be heading towards, with climate change and small-mindedness almost 30 years later.... 

Also, despite Lucette not mentioning Battlestar Galactica as an inspiration, they named these items after the series, which is Awesome...Although i think they are more Cylon than Starbuck!!!

Galactica Blazer (AUD $299)
