Making the Most of the ‘Bunny Ears’ Style: 2

Monday, January 25th, 2010


bunny 2Pulling off this trend has few rules, but they are fairly strict, because with something this quirky, it would be a little too easy to come off as looking ludicrous, and no one wants to do that — again, unless you are attending a Halloween or costume party, and even then most of us want to look cute rather than ridiculous.

To avoid the latter and exceed at the former, make sure your hair has a tousled, just out of bed look when you try this hairstyle; up ‘dos are good as well, or a voluminous ‘do reminiscent of those sultry 1960s sex kittens.

However, steer clear of any props or looks that could be construed as costumes. That’s taking this look a bit too far. If your hair is quirky, make sure to be somewhat subtle elsewhere.

This look is perfect for evenings, parties, fun activities, et cetera. Family dinners or days at the office: no.

Making the Most of the ‘Bunny Ears’ Style: 1

Sunday, January 24th, 2010


bunny 3Yes, fashionistas, you read that correctly, I said bunny ears. And yes, as it happens, that is in part exactly what you are probably thinking about: actual bunny ears. Not to mention mouse ears, cat ears, and who knows what else — or big, over sized bows, and other, intricately styled headbands, like the one you see here.

We are going to talk about the do’s and don’ts associated with this style, because it can be pretty cute if you know what to do — or what not to do.

However, in all good conscience, I really cannot advocate the wearing of actual bunny ears or cat ears, if you are not attending a Halloween bash or costume party. I just don’t have it in me.

How To Travel-Proof Your Hair!

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009


Travel0903Your hair is something that can either make or break your look – seriously.  If you have a fantastic outfit but horrible hair, what do you think that people are going to remember?  The hair.  This is especially true if you are traveling all of the time.  If you are an avid traveler, you need to make sure that your hair is going to look good as soon as you get off of the plane … that is hard, unless you know how to do it!

Firstly, know that done up hair is sexy but undone hair is actually sexier when you are traveling.  You want to stay away from styles that are too sleek because honestly – it will not hold up in the airplane.  Pulling your hair back using your fingers and keeping your hairstyle pretty soft is a great way to ensure that your hair looks good as soon as you arrive at the location.

Another thing – pack the products that you want to use and make sure that they are good.  Elastics are a simple way to tame fly-aways and control frizziness and you can also use them to tie your hair in a low bun, which is very hot.

Kristen Stewart Is Rocking That New Hairstyle!

Saturday, August 8th, 2009


Kristen StewartNow now – I know that we have talked about the latest leather trend in the last blog but we are going to skip around a bit and check out Kristen Stewart.  Now, this ‘Twilight’ start is one star that I have been keeping tabs on … if only because I am trying to see if little K can ever close her mouth!  Check it out – during the movie, her mouth did not seem to close once, however – that is beside the point.

Right now, we are going to just talk about her hairstyle.  This hairstyle that she is sporting right now is fresh, young and totally hip and that is something that I love!  While K might need to grow up a little bit, her hairstyle can stay this chic and messy … it’s awesome.  Actually, I love the color too; the black suits her pale, pale skin really well.

The dress?  Well, that is Rock & Republic and that is a brand that I am slowly but surely falling in love with.  More Rock & Republic soon – I promise!
