I have finally got to the stage of being able to think Bugger It All and:
Have stopped colouring my hair
Have had a crop
Have found myself some comfortable clothes which I am happy with- leggings with tunics and Fly London Mol boots, Birkies, Jersey dresses, White Stuff skirts and cardies.
Have spent serious money on eye cream!

Soooo comfortable so easy and no shitting about with aching feet, grey roots or gazillions of hair products.

I feel fabulous.

Yay! You go girl...

I, too, have stopped colouring my hair. I went through my wardrobe and chucked out all the Primark t-shirts that have stretched/shrunk, and all the old jeans, and have bought a few nice items that actually fit me. I wear a bit of makeup and jewellery to work, otherwise don't bother. The grey hair thing is the biggest statement, I think, that I'm happy with who I am.

Also, since Christmas I've watched what I eat (smaller portions, not 'no cake/chocolate') and am down to my ideal weight. Smile DH actualy commented this morning that I look nice Shock

I, too, feel fabulous!

Yay back to you!
I am also quite fit and slim atm which might be a factor. I have had to walk a lot recently. Diet is a bit crap though.
I so love opting out of the 'Maintainance' I get up and shower, get dressed and can go without looking and feeling crap. Liberation.

And the thing about stopping dyeing is that you look at those who are still doing it and just think how much better everything is since you stopped.
