How-To: Get the Sexy, Beachy Waves From Proenza Schouler
Mermaid waves never go out of style, even at Fashion Week, so it's not a surprise that for the Proenza Schouler show, Frédéric Fekkai lead stylist Didier Malige was inspired by California surfer girls' tousled hair. The look was totally sexy, a little wild, and surprisingly easy to do. (And if you're so inclined, you can even spritz on a little purple and green temporary hair color to mimic the style worn by some of the models.) Fab was totally loving the chic clothing, and I liked how the creamy nude lips with smudged shadow lent a soft, party-girl effect.
14 Gorgeous Last Looks at Fashion Week: Days 8 and 9
It was the final day of Fashion Week, and while I'm sad to see it go, I'm excited to discover how many of these hair and makeup looks will make the transition into the mainstream. These final two days were absolutely lovely, with more old-guard designers like Michael Kors, Calvin Klein, and Oscar De La Renta injecting an elegance that nicely hedged the experimental looks from younger designers. Click through and see what some of the most established houses, along with some of the hottest new ones, had to offer.
Proenza Schouler Gets Their Wartime On
Backstage at Proenza Schouler, war was on everyone's mind. No, not in a political way — this is Fashion Week, after all — but in an aesthetic way. "The inspiration was how women looked so glamorous during wartime, when they were working in the factories but still had their red lipstick on," said makeup artist Diane Kendal.
Backstage Beauty: Proenza Schouler
I just got back from Proenza Schouler, where long hair and cobalt blue eyes reigned. "It's never just about one feature, even if it's the most prominent thing, because everything has to work in tandem," said lead makeup artist Dick Page, who was remarkably calm despite the flurry of activity surrounding him. "The look is strong, but it's very easy as well."
Love It or Hate It? Mary-Kate's Hair at Proenza Schouler
Project Runway's Blayne would have had a heart attack if he had a ticket to Proenza Schouler's show, and not because of the jumpsuits. His style icon, Mary-Kate Olsen, sat in the front row. And while I wouldn't call it a heart attack, I'm kind of obsessed with her braided hairstyle — is it braidlicious or a miss?

Feeling Crafty? Name Lancôme's Newest Pout-à-Porter Lipstick
We've seen it with Tracy Reese and Sally Hansen, along with Emanuel Ungaro for MAC. And now, in the latest crop of makeup-inspired-by-runway collaborations, Lancôme's Pout-à-Porter lipstick is back. But this time, it's in the form of a name-that-shade contest.
Tonight's Eyeliner Will Be Bright and Blue
If you can't wear bright colors on New Year's Eve, when can you wear them? I'm not one to go all out with a bold hue, but a hint of tint? No problem.
Model of the Week: Aminata
You probably don't know the name Mia Aminata Niara — she goes by Aminata professionally — but that should soon change.
The 5'9" stunner was born in Senegal, now lives in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, and speaks three languages. She's, as they say, big in Europe: Aminata has walked the runways of Vivienne Westwood, Jean Paul Gaultier, Lanvin and appeared in magazines such as Vogue Germany.
