Hippy Dippy

Even with the entire world (including me) loving Proenza Schouler's Spring 2010 collection, I still can't bring myself to wear anything tie-dye without looking like a fifth grader. I guess this dress is my compromise to the trend: a little bit of tie-dye print without looking like I'm about to ~surf some waves~ or look like I dipped an XL tee-shirt into vats of watery ink.

Also, I'm tempted to cut my hair short again but I don't know what style. Good idea? Bad idea? Suggestions?
