Dorinda Medley rocks a "new look" inside her "new apartment"
In a December 8 Instagram post, Dorinda shared a photo of herself sitting on a steep staircase that was, according to her geotag, somewhere in Manhattan. Though it's not immediately clear whether she's moved since the summer, Dorinda did share an update in July 2023 about her living situation.
In an Instagram post from July 21, the RHONY alum shared that she was back in New York City after spending much of the year at her home in the Berkshires. “Adding some color to my new apartment,” Dorinda captioned a photo. “FINALLY MOVED BACK IN!!!!”
In Dorinda's new photo, she was leaning against clean white walls, and wearing a shirt that was covered with multicolored fringe. The Lady of Bluestone Manor paired the vibrant top with black pants and strappy heels with golden ankle chains.
In the photo, Dorinda's hair was styled into a long, platinum-blonde lob, and she tagged hairstylist Julius Michael in the snap. "New Apartment, New Look," Dorinda captioned the post.
Though she and Julius didn't reveal the tools behind her 'do in the December 8 picture, the hairstylist has shared some of his styling hacks for Dorinda in the past.
For example, in late October Julius shared a stunning photo of Dorinda rocking a long, wavy lob. He revealed that he had used Hidden Crown Extensions to achieve the length, and he had also used the extensions on Dorinda for her late-October appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.
Dorinda Medley's Signature Haircut
In the past, Dorinda has discussed her signature hairstyle — which resembles the blonde coif of an iconic princess. “People kept saying I had a face like Princess Diana, so I cut my hair like Princess Diana,” Dorinda once told BravoTV.com. The New York mother also revealed that, when she was living in London, tourists would often mistake her for the royal figure.
In fact, word of Dorinda’s resemblance to the ryoal spread so much that even Princess Diana heard about it! “She even came up to me once [when I lived in London] and said, ‘I heard that you’re my doppelgänger,’ Dorinda said.
Aside from its royal vibes, Dorinda has found that her short ‘do perfectly fits her persona and style. “It suits me,” she said. “I think it’s empowering, it’s very stylish and it’s comfortable.”
