Hello friends,

Here we are, 6 years later.  Essentially 6 times a thousand later in real life years, experiences, friendships and intimate relationships.  I have missed blogging.  I have not made a post in years.   I am hoping to go back to blogging on a consistent basis, but life is busy sometimes and (always) takes over.  I am no longer looking to count the amount of page hits I receive, or styling appointments I book, or comments I receive per post. I am now in the place where I worry about bills and hours and sleep and appreciating the relationships I have...and are you even interested in anything I have to say?!  

When I first started Gypsy Friday the blog and pop up shop I posted links to fashion, jewelry and my general thoughts and articles I liked.  Since then, blogs, myself and YOU have evolved a million times over.  Blogs and links are an entity unto themselves.  Careers and controversies have been made via online articles and blogs.  We have SnapChat, Insta, Reddit, bitchy Facebook, etc...Successful jewelry lines created (Hi DANNIJO)!.  Blog (word) of mouth is key.  The Internet is a wondrous thing, isn't it?

Gypsy Friday was always just a quick easy jaunt and link to my thoughts.  I hope to create the same thing now, with a bit more thought and maturity.  Although I am QUITE a few years older (thank GOD), I still have a love for fashion (mostly now vintage) and Gyspy Friday.  In the last 6 years I have maintained a successful and demanding career.  I have learnt how to be a empathetic leader to 20+ women (and 3-5 almost just as womanly men).  I have gained lovely friends, lost a brother and marriage.  I am looking forward to sharing my <bitchy> thoughts, wisdom, fashion links, general life tips and tricks.  I am a lot older, and have been through much more.  I have travelled, worked, loved, worked, lost and loved in my life.  I look forward to sharing this with you all again.

Missing In Action

Hi lovely readers!

I have been super MIA from blogging land lately.  Mainly because I have been somewhat busy with some fun things I have on the go & secondly because I am going to be switching over Gypsy Friday to a new home! You can find me HERE at www.gypsyfriday.tumblr.com

I felt like I needed a fresh new layout and couldn't quite tweak the blogspot platform the way I wanted.  I'm not techy in the least!  So, hoping you will follow me onto new and better things!


Thank you for reading!

Ombre Hair?

Slow on the band wagon (I know) but I am lusting for ombre hair.  
A huge time and financial commitment when you have as many hair extensions tied into your head as I do (what a fraud!)...but passing trend or not...I am trying to justify it to myself more and more!  
Sigh.
