Haute Hair Luxury And Lavish Accessories
August 4, 2008
Hmm, this is one I have lost track on until just recently again. While searching for a specific item in one of my jewelry boxes I came across some of my old hair charms and accessories, and thought to myself- when was the last time I wore these?
Now, it was not that long ago.. but a while enough for me to consider bringing it back and playing around with it once again. I am not talking about headbands or bows, but rather the clips, charms, and little designs one can tie into their hair style, whether it is up or down.
It’s so simple and adds such a nice and cute little touch, I think. Walking down the hair accessory isle of any shop is like being a child in a candy store- so many colors and variations to choose from.
And why not? Its all in good fun, and it isn’t as though you need to wear a ton of them, even just one speaks volumes.
So let me know what you think- I think it can be a great addition into the fall. Sleek, elegantly swept hair with little sparkles of accessories to catch the eye. Definitely dresses up the little black dress and can be worn in so many different ways.
I will be playing around with it again a bit more and post some updates on the matter.
On another note I came across something else in my closet that needs to and will be returning once more- think vintage, think hats- more on it later, loves!
Runway Glamorous Hair At Home
June 3, 2008
Hair styles should never be limited, and the runway is constantly revealing new and playful ideas. A classic French twist or chignon is always an elegant statement, but it doesn’t have to stop there.
Take this look for example; some messy twists and braids collected into a bun in the back, then dressed up with some ribbons, bows, or headbands. I decided to do my own little twist with it this afternoon. It takes only a moment and adds a pretty touch to any outfit, no matter how simple.
A bright red ribbon to top off a twist of braids and my simple black dress has much added style for anything that my happen in my day.
Be creative and playful- have a little fun with some extra attention to yourself. You’ll love the results, not to mention the mood in your day.
For some more ideas, here are a few other twists I have done in the past (and happily still will soon again). Bows, twists, braids, and ribbons- young and playful or sleek and elegant you decide. Its great especially when you are wearing a shoulder revealing dress or top, or maybe have a pretty collar on your shirt or jacket. Its the clean swept look that screams glamour and luxury.
As simple or glamorous as you want to make it; have a few pins ready and dress it as you please. Above all have fun and have style.
Long Beautiful And A Flawless Shine
May 18, 2008
Finding a consistent perfect shine and smoothness for your hair has never been easier. And believe it from me, I have a lot of hair- really, a lot of hair. Finding something to control it and keep it the way I like has been a mission now since resolved.
Living in Florida and now in Texas, humidity is a familiar fiend. Oddly enough, I haven’t noticed it much as my hair remains completely smooth with that wonderful shine. Kerastase has made all the difference for me, particularly their Oleo-Relax Collection.
The shampoo and hair mask does wonders for me- and makes my hair feel flawless for days. I use their heat protector before blow drying my hair straight and rarely need to touch up again before my next wash. It saves me from using heat on my hair every day and my hair moves beautifully. The less maintenance needed the better, it allows me time to style my hair in fun and creative ways instead of having to spend an hour or two getting it ready for play.
Looking for shine, curls, pure health? They have products targeted for them too- and they are all wonderful. The price may be somewhat high at first glance- but you don’t need to use it every day and a little bit goes a long way. In fact, it lasts so much longer than my past shampoos and conditioners that it ends up being the same price or even less.
Don’t believe me- see for yourself. That’s me, I used to fight with my hair all the time, now I love my hair and look forward to drying and styling it. After a hair mask treatment, my hair instantly goes into place requiring less damaging heat and so much less time.
I laugh now and how difficult and time consuming it used to be. Now its a sort of luxury for me, not to mention the lasting effect of feeling great. This one is not going away for me.
Style It Up Or Wave It Down
May 9, 2008
Hair with attitude and a statement bold and wild or delicate and chic. If you have Medium to Long hair there is no excuse to not have a little fun. Rut never more if ever you were in one-the girls with the short hair can make it look so easy to come up with a spunky or classy style; its time to take notice of your own.
Never be afraid to experiment a little here and there. Maybe you don’t know what your doing when you go into it, but that doesn’t mean the results can’t be amazing. Some of my best creations were purely accidental messing around.
Rock it or keep it in simple sophistication- do something to make it extra special. And don’t stop there, you can do so much more with it down, too.
Straighten it for a sleek shine or curl it half way up for some soft natural waves. Let your hair guide you as it naturally is, if not even inspire you. I have found that sometimes after having my hair up for a day, putting it down it will naturally fall into these perfect waves and curls. From one style right into another- perhaps from day into evening or from one day to another.
The classics are constantly reinventing themselves into new and exciting forms. Many of the time thanks to make up as seen in the fashion shows. Quite dramatic and perhaps not for actual wear, take them as creative influences to create a style you can use for yourself.
Its a great excuse if anything to give more time to yourself and really enjoy it. Pamper yourself, maybe set up a warm bath to follow. Create new styles to use for the rest of the week and upcoming events. There are no limits.
