The One Where True Love Died in ’96
If you follow me on Instagram or on then you’ve heard by now how much I LOVE my henna dipped hands. That’s what I’m calling it. It needs a cool name. I’ve gotten really mixed reactions on it though. It’s one of those “you either love it or hate it type things.” Perhaps the funniest comment is that it looks like I have gangrene. Made me laugh! Everyone is entitled to their opinion on it. Freedom of artistic expression I always say! What do you guys think? Would it be something you’d be willing to try out? YOLO and all that jazz!
I wore this outfit to my friend Zoe’s graduation, so I shout out is most definitely necessary: CONGRATULATIONS BEAUTIFUL GRADUATE!
P.S: I didn’t wear these heels. They look funny in the photos. I ended up in flats because I’m a lazy bum who can’t be bothered to be fancy.
Skirt: Vintage
Shirt: No brand
Feather collar: Twenty/Ten by AKF
Shoes: Nicholas Kirkwood
Cuffs: Topshop
Armor ring: Topshop
Black ring: Gift
Charm Bracelet: Thomas Sabo
P.P.S: The song lyrics in my title are from “The Last Song” by Iggy Azelea. I’m currently obsessing over it. I posted the song below because I’m trying to be an awesome blogger yo.
amazing!yep YOLO all the way lol x
ReplyThank you! YO to the LO!
ReplyWe call this style of henna: ruwayeb.
You say i have henna on my ruwayeb.
You definately have them extra long though!
ReplyYou’ll set a trend! :p
21st century ruwayeb rocking! We’ll see if the trend catches on. If it doesn’t we’ll call it a successful social experiment haha
ReplyAnother beautiful outfit!!
ReplyThank you love bug!
ReplyI love it Ascia – I knew you would rock the henna dip dye fingers. I normally do this with red henna, but the black ink is so much cooler. It just take a long time before it fades and go away…
ReplyI love each and every pic – love the collar you did.
Thank you! You’re such an amazing supportive bloggerista! I’m actually quite worried about the fading! I’m afraid I’ll look diseased at my university graduation at the end of this month. I HOPE IT FADES FASSSSSST!

Replywhere did you do your 7enna? does the color change to brownish/orangish after a while?
ReplyI just went to a random Arabic salon. It fades to a brown/purple relatively quickly actually. It doesn’t look too bad!
ReplyCould you please tell me where you make your tragus piercing?
ReplyThank You

Replyi feel so on top of it. i blogged about you a zillion years ago when you were on lookbook. anyway. YES! Michelle Lamy was the forst person I thought of when i saw your hands. props. its mad cool.
ReplyHaha! You’re incredibly ahead of the game but I wouldn’t have a blog if it weren’t for early supporters like you! Thank you so much <3
ReplyI tried to do this henna dip dye, not on my nails though, and I think it looks badass. People are asking a lot of questions though. Haven’t met anyone who really likes it – but I do:)
