I would highly recommend looking at some 'edgier' hair styles. There's a lot you could do with your hair (ie. the femme mohawk and stuff - I'll try to find a picture to link). And possibly some trashy/over done make up.
I tend to find that a lot of girls can completely 'punk up' an outfit and look with just these two without needing to get tattoos/crazy hair colours. Maybe test those out for a look you like? (Sorry, I'm sure someone had probably already mentioned these as ideas...I'm not very useful haha)

You photos are gorgeous by the way.

To be completely honest though , I'm abit bias towards these looks so they might not even be what you like. Hehe, hope that helps anyways.

Thanks, everyone, both for the fresh ideas and the compliments. Happy

I actually went shopping yesterday--one of my main problems, to tell the truth, is that right now EVERYTHING in Israel looks like a bad 80's flashback, and everywhere I go I see studs and clothes that are messy/mismatched/too big even as a size XS, and to be honest, I'm petite enough that I NEED structured and form-fitting clothes, or if you saw me walking down the street, all you would see is a huge pile of fashion thrown together in the worst way.

I do have a classic look, but I'm sick of what I've been doing. I do, however, look forward to receiving my old pointe shoes in the mail so I can bedazzle them, for example, and so on. Also, I bought a black and blue, horizontally-striped dress that is definitely similarily cut to other dresses I own, but the stripes make it new-enough that it's helped me feel a bit better.

Also, I like new textures... patterned tights are amazing, in my book, but the ones that are black or muted colors, so the design itself is what stands out.

I loved lady gaga's lavender hair. Happy Maybe you could pull it off? Although she is a bleach blonde...

I think the lavender is a really nice soft color that isnt to crazy or bold. Maybe you could find clip-ins of the color that you like? Or extentions...

Right now I have "virgin" hair. It's never been coloured in any way and I'm kind of sick of looking at the same old chestnut hair so I'm thinking about doing 1 streak in it. Maybe a streak for both of us is a good idea Happy

Starting with a streak it a good way to start. This is the first time I've even coloured my hair all over in red and you can only see it where I had my bleached streaks anyways. It's nice to change your look every now and again.

I agree. I NEVER cut my hair until my ex-fiancee messed me around back in... late 2006/early 07. Then I chopped it and went for a modernized Monroe look. After that, it was various styles of short- or medium-length until about a year ago, when I decided to grow it out. Growing it out has been a little bit lame after a new cut every 6-8 weeks, and I can't really dye it... but maybe I can get some decent-quality clip-in streaks... not in Israel, though--everything here is cheap. x.x

Does anyone know where to get good clip-in streaks?

Not in Israel no... there are places online you can get them. Clip in streaks are a good way to change your look everday, I have a rainbow one, purple, blue, pink, red!!! They are fun to play with...

I meant online--I figured nobody here would know where to get them in Israel. ;) Do you happen to know specific online shops?

Well I got mine from UK high street shops from Superdrugs, so you can see if they sell it on their website?

The next obvious one to me would be amazon.

I guess it depends on what colour you want, it you want a bright random colour like red or purple or blue then most gothicy cyber type online shops do them, maybe eBay??

Sorry I can't be more help then that :S if I find anything else I'll let you know Happy
