hair...

I just got my hair cut. I have very curly, brown hair and it used to be a few inches below my shoulders, and now its short in the back and longer in the front, very rihanna/victoria beckham-esque.

I think it looks great, so does the man, but I want to know what other guys think. Sexier long, or short with style?

Begs the question of how guys like girls to dress, what they find sexy.

The other day on the phone with the man, I was lamenting about how horrible I felt that day, going to school in a sweatshirt and jeans when my two good friends met up with me and mademe feel just soooo under-dressed (under-dressed for school in a sweatshirt and jeans? ya).

One of these girls works at Nordstroms and everything she wears is trendy, cute, put-together... because she only OWNS cute, trendy things (and she consequently shops all the time and has this massive wardrobe). My other friend is the type who can't afford rent or groceries but shops at those incredibly over-priced stores, like Anthropologie, on a regular basis and prides herself on her sense of style.

Nordstrom girl never leaves the house without putting 'her face' on. As in, layers of make-up. Anthropologie girl never leaves her house without her MAC eyeshadow/eyeliner/mascara-after-eyelash-curler combo.

I am lucky to remember to put on mascara or eyeliner every day.

This is not to say I'm a bad dresser, I don't take care of myself, what-not. I am a pretty girl, I have nice clothes, I know how to apply make-up... and I frequently do look nice. When it's appropriate. When I have time. When I don't have to get up at 7:30 am to commute to school, take a midterm without having time for my morning coffee.

I just can't muster up the strength or willpower to put together an outfit that early in the morning; I'm more concernd with not freezing my ass off when I walk to my car.

So anyway, I was complaining to him about how when I had gone out with Nordstroms and Anthropologie that day, I felt like the designated ugly friend (which I am most definitely not).

But in mid-sentence of my lamentation, my man interrupted me to say "Seriously... let me just tell you one thing. In high school, I always thought the girls in sweats were the hottest. For real. I wasn't interested in the girls who looked too high-maintenance."

So what is the verdict then? Is my man weird, or do other guys feel the same way? Laid-back in sweats sexy, or extremely put-together sexy? (I'm asking about on a normal day-to-day basis. I also dress to kill when I go out.)

OH and speaking of hair, how do most men like it down south? Shaved, waxed, untouched... slash how MUCH shaved/waxed?

goodbye for now,
