Who it's for: Women with long hair, preferably shoulder length or longer with lots of natural texture. The waves should be firm but not curly, and they look best when draped off to one side. A side part is the epitome of effortless grace. Where you've seen it: Armani, Christian Dior. Star celebrities with the look: Angelina Jolie, Jessica Stam, Milla Jovovich. How to pull it off: Pair this easy-going hair style with a red lip and kohl-rimmed eyes for a film noir inspired look, or keep it simple and daytime friendly with a nude lip and lots of mascara. |

What's hot and versatile: This updated version of the pixie cut can be worn a number of ways. The first is a longer bob with a blunt cut (think Victoria Beckham), perfect for someone who wants an edgy, but polished look. Make sure that you have über-straight hair to pull this off. If you want a short look but have wavy hair, think short on the sides with a longer fringe or bang on the top. Longer layers in the front will give you more styling options. Stars with this look: Carey Mulligan, Agyness Deyn. How to work it: this sleek look can be both refined and edgy depending on how you pair it with your makeup. Red hot lips look smashing with a clean cut bob or a more romantic one. Sultry, smoky eyes and shiny nude lips will also work with this look. For a fresher spring look, try a messy bob with minimal makeup and a warm pink lip color. Making your style pop: Make sure to keep your color smokin' hot with a shine-infusing color glaze. It'll keep your style from looking flat and matronly. |
