Girls love makeovers.
After I got married I grew my hair. When I was young it hung down my back in thick sheets, but childbirth made it limp n stringy. I used to wear it in a ugly oldfashioned bun with pins sticking in. Then one fine day I saw a picture of me with my lemon sized bun and my hands on my hips, thanks to my brother-in-law's candid camera. I was struck with my ugliness, bad body attitude, ugh hair. Ava jawani me boodhi ho gayi thi !
I walked back into the parlour and got a hair cut, and ever since, been taking care of myself. Even if my environs are sad and regressive, I try to keep myself up-to-date and in synch with my inner self.
As with me, so with my blog. I have hunted out the perfect template for my thepinkbee blog and just found one for my rotteneggstrikes one. I love the pictures on both these blogs. I am not too happy with the border on the rotteneggstrikes one, but dont know how to change it, a plain white or black or even a deep wine colour will look good I think. I have asked a friend to help out, I trust his judgement implicitly.
I am now looking for a new template for my books blog. I would like an artwork for that, Mona Lisa or maybe that Michelangelo mural with the guy stretching out his finger. Not David, he looks like he is sitting on a pot.
We love makeovers, new clothes, shoes, bags because it makes us feel new all over. Gives us hope that things are going well.

ReplyDeleteuber-cool this looks! and yes, ANY makeover gives such a fresh feel!
ps1: border isn't that bad. its funky, no?
ps2:my enemy no. 1, post partum-mirror:(
Thanks BB, yeah, the border is funky.
ReplyDeleteDont believe the post-partum mirror, it lies. You get a grace period of one year! Anyhow the lil bubble will soon have you running around after him and you will be your previous slim self.
hehe...people like us need a shock to make us aware of our looks...
ReplyDeleteI had shoulder length hair and hair cut used to be done annually...and then one fine day I saw split ends and no amount of trimming cud remove them...so I went ahead and cut my hair short...rest is history...hehehe
I like this template but yes the border is a bit irritating...looks like those illusion thingie...hehehe...
hmmm but the girl on top compensates for it.. so I am keeping it.

Hi Avdi,

My blog for example is back with its sad old blogspot template after one from cuteblogs.com and few other custom made ones...Please help, give some gyan. I like your header. Ye, the white in the borders look a little too glaring, but that doesn't look entirely bad. Good pick I would say. Help, help...
