OOTD: Shabby, but not so chic!

 

Hello lovelies!

How are you doing?

Here's a little update from me :-)

Looking shabby (but not so chic), as I’m about to start physical therapy for my neck at the island of Krk. Bajcici is a lovely little village and at this time of the year fields here are filled with little yellow flowers! 

I had to cancel appointment at my hairdresser for the third time in a row as I’m still unable to move my neck freely and be comfortable in hairdresser’s chair. I’m trying to resist the urge to colour my hair at home as I know it never turns out as fab as when my hairdresser does it! I actually truly love my natural hair colour and wish I never coloured it but it’s a bit late to grow it all out now without also showing greys. I spent some time obsessing about having grey hair showing. 

But then, today, I actually felt extremely grateful and happy that I actually have hair and I consider this period of not being able to colour it as an opportunity to make it the healthiest possible and give it a new vitality. 

In regards to it I ordered amla oil and line seed oil, both great for hair care. I had great results using line seed oil in the past and in regards to amla oil, I heard it has the power of reversing grey hair and slowing down the aging process! 

Have you heard about it or used it already? I’d love to hear your experiences with it.

So I just wanted to say, remember, there are always things in your life to be thankful for and that can be a source of happiness, even in challenging times! To be honest with you, it’s a lesson that I often forget but I feel I’m on the right path to succeeding in training my brain to always look at the bright side of life.

Even though this is probably not one of my best looks, I still wanted to share it here and give you a little update on what's currently going on in my life.

I'm usually a type of person that's used on doing things since I start my day, till I go to sleep at night. I always like to be busy and create, or tidy up the house...But in this period I'm learning that it's important to give your body opportunity to rest and heal, and it's important to know how to slow down and take it easy without feeling the guilt, thinking "I should have done more today".
