Trend Alert: Chic Retro Updos
Maybe it's because they're in France, or maybe it's just the moment, but yesterday at the opening of Paris Fashion Week lots of stars were wearing chic, retro updos that recalled the prettiest parts of the late '50s and early '60s. Anne Hathaway and Paz Vega both wore sleek styles that recalled Audrey Hepburn, while Kylie Minogue went for straight Jeanne Moreau. Black shades, of course, were de rigueur.
Get Kate Walsh's Loose Sundance Bun
Kate Walsh arrived at Legion's Sundance Film Festival premiere looking enviably glam-casual, with understated makeup and a sweet, messy bun that looked easy and red carpet appropriate at the same time. I think this look would be absolutely perfect for Valentine's Day or a date night—some time you want to look sophisticated but romantic.
To begin, spray wet hair with a lightweight styling spray, like David Babaii Mise En Plise Light Styling Spray ($12.95).
Get Jennifer Lopez's Bun Two Different Ways
Jennifer Lopez provided lots of shock value donning that skintight sparkly bodysuit during her New Year's Eve performance on Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve. Yesterday, she dazzled once again — but this time, it was in a more subtle way. At the Miami Dolphins game, Jennifer wore a classic, simple bun to complement her neutral makeup.
Which Hollywood Hon Is Wearing a Trendy Bun?
Back in September when Spring 2009 Fashion Week was going down, I mentioned that a bun trend seemed to be surfacing. Fast forward a few months, and I'm not surprised to see lots of buns on different Hollywood hons.
Take Diane Kruger and Nicole Kidman (pictured right), for instance.
Guess Who?
Guess which actress is donning a killer bun to an HBO premiere?
How-To: Create A Classic Loopy Bun
The loopy bun is the complete opposite of shaggy, low-maintenance hair. But for those of you who are getting ready for prom or a formal event, this classic hairstyle is an elegant option. The trick is to make it look more modern and less severe.
Trend Alert: Spring's Haute Hair
Last week we saw lots of haute hair and makeup from the catwalks of the 2008 Spring Couture Fashion Shows. While most of the looks were wild and over-the-top, there was one traditional hair theme that seemed to keep popping up. Whether it was styled tight and low at Valentino, in the middle of the head and accessorized at Armani Privè or worn high with some height at the crown at Chanel, the bun is this moment's "it" hair.
Trend Alert: The Sunday Bun
Ah, I love seeing celebrities looking natural and down-to-earth. This is the kind of hairstyle that everybody wears when you can't be bothered to primp, but you've got to get out of the house and get your day started. I like to call this look the Sunday bun, but really it's just a casual, messy updo that requires only a hair elastic or clip and serves the purpose of getting your hair out of the way.
Love It or Hate It? Sarah Jessica Parker's Braided Bun
Is it the summer of braids or what? Sarah Jessica Parker was wearing a plaited bun at the opening of a Valentino fashion exhibition in Rome. I'm not sure that this heavy look is the most flattering choice for her, but I could be in the minority.
