I wonder if I can pull it off...

I've got this urge to do something dramatic. Either before we leave for Australia, or while there.

Like chop all my hair off really short and make it white-blonde or go redhead. Or get extensions put in, long black extensions, and colour what I currently have to match. Change my image - get new clothes in a style I normally don't wear, pierce my ears (or get that bellyring I'm always on about), something like that.

I'm tired of the same-old. I want something new and exciting, something that will make me stand out from the crowd, or make me unrecognizeable to those who are used to seeing me pitch up in the same tired stuff day after day. I want a bit of WOW factor in my life. Something to perk me up completely! (An Extreme Makeover perhaps???)

I'd love to do it. But do I have the nerve...?

::update::
Been checking out the "What not to wear" sites this morning, and I think I'm going to go get me the book. If I could afford a help-me-shop person it would be nice, or even afford clothes without them! But nay, we lack such extended funds, so it will have to be DIY.

Trouble is, browsing the shops indicates a severe lack of decently-priced, non run of the mill stuff. It's all either overpriced or junk. And it looks exactly blerry the same in every shop. No imagination, I tell you!

Time to haul out the sewing machine and experiment!
