- Closing my Bank of America account and changing banks(Because BoA are a bunch of scammers)
- Turning in the residency applications and money orders
- Buying hair dye
So...not SO much to do, but it will be an interesting day indeed. Since I'm dying my hair tomorrow, I wanted to touch on the subject of hair color and which colors look good depending on your skin tone. A lot of people make the mistake of thinking just because a color looks good on a friend or model, it will look good on you. But it all depends on whether you have a warm or cool skin tone. Overall the right color definitely brightens up your face and brings out your best features! :)

According to this chart I have light cool skin. So I they say I would look best with white blonde or light brown hair. However, I have very dark eyebrows which look really harsh with light hair, and it clashes far too much.
(I look like this, except not nearly as gorgeous!)
So, basically use this as a loose guide, especially if your eyebrows are a distinctly different color than your eyebrows! Be careful ;)
I'm dying my hair either a medium ash brown or a deep chocolate mocha color. I'll definitely post puctures of the results to see what you guys think! :)
Good night all!
