This spring, we're thinking pinks, purples, blues and oranges. Only, we're not talking about the latest fashion or nail trends. This is all about candy coloured hair!

As a guilty pleasure fan of the show Once Upon A Time, I'm actually a kind of a closeted Jennifer Morrison fan. I like her cute, unique style and her tough as nails attitude, which is why when I saw her rock a men's suit on the red carpet, I was pretty impressed with her moxie.
