I can’t even remember how long Ashlee Simpson was rocking longer, black hair. I didn’t hate her dyed black hair – it made her stand out from Jessica, and it seemed to compliment Pete Wentz in a husband-wife matchy-matchy way. But, as you can see in a photo that Pete Wentz took yesterday, Ashlee has just chopped off her hair and gone back to a bleached blonde color. Don’t kill me, but I don’t hate it. I think Ashlee has the face to pull off short hair, and the blonde makes her look younger somehow. It’s pretty cute, in my opinion.

Ashlee Simpson has gone back to her roots — literally!

After promising that he would “try and sneak a pic to post” of Simpson’s sassy new blonde pixie cut, Pete Wentz followed through when he uploaded a photo of Simpson and son Bronx, nearly 2, Tuesday afternoon.

“Yah fam headed out tonight stoked!” Wentz, 31, tweeted. “Cute hair mama!”

Simpson (who is a natural blonde) was most recently seen with long, ombre-style hair — though the 26-year-old has also rocked black, brown and red shades in the past.

Wentz’s thoughts on his wife’s new ‘do?

“New blonde pixie haircut is cute!” he tweeted.

Is anyone else pleasantly surprised that Ashlee and Pete are still together, and still seemingly strong? I generally don’t care for either of them, but together – with their very cute baby – they are kind of adorable, and I always like it when a husband has a vocal opinion about his wife’s hair. Very cute! And look how blonde Bronx is!
