Almost 8 months in and I went with a metallic burgundy color. It's got a bit of sparkle to it in person.

It's funny how we start off very concerned about our braces being invisible and being thankful for white coated wires, but end up not being bothered- with many people choosing coloured ligs and powerchains even with clear brackets.

I had Damon clear which are self ligating, so did not have to decide whether or not to become more extroverted about my braces.
