A little break from fashion week photos with some taken in paris a few weeks back.. I've been wearing these boots almost every day... never knew I needed them so bad until I picked up this one pair in a parisian vintage shop.. fitted like a glove and the nice lady in the shop said a lot of things in french that I didn't understand but she smiled a lot and occasionally applauded. I guess it would have been out of place to walk out empty handed. The real reason being I knew I would have regretted it if I didn't go for it and in my head I was already making excuses like 'they found you... it's meant to be.. you always wanted these..' I could go on forever but you get the point.

ps. happy birthday sister, I miss you

Celebrity Wedding Hairstyles - Long

Simple, Short and Elegant

We start with two short, elegant hairstyles that can work very well as wedding hairstyles for women with short hair already. The first is a short pixie cut styled with depth, texture, and teasing bangs. The hairstyle really opens up the facial area and would work well in showing the bride's beauty and any dress features from the front or behind. The next is another very short cut on Carey Mulligan who styles the hair forward in sections and brilliantly uses a sparkling headband to part the front section of the hair from the rest. It is a very simple technique that creates that unique look. These two examples are two very short ones but there are plenty of other looks for different length of short hair.

Long Flowing Hairstyle

 The next two hairstyles show how to style long hair and create two beautiful looks that can match many different wedding dresses and facial shapes. The first is from Carrie Underwood which is a layered hairstyle with a front sweep of the hair. The long tresses are infused with soft curls at the end. The whole hairstyle frames the face and will bring out any bride's beauty. The next hairstyle on Scarlett Johansson an alternative styling method and the addition of a hair clip. The hair is parted on one side and swept to the other. The tresses are pinned on one side and brushed to the other side and light brushed waves are added. The hairstyle really opens up one side of the face and can compliment one shoulder or strapless wedding dresses.

Updo Hairstyles

Updos are often favored for wedding hairstyles and the two celebrity looks here are just a drop in the bucket of the numerous hairstyles that can be created. The first is on Jessica Simpson who volume, a swept fringe, and curled locks on both sides of the face to bring focus and soften areas at the same time. The rest of the tresses are curled and clipped at the back with little sections hanging. This hairstyle would compliment many dresses, especially those that open up the back area. The other hairstyle is a chignon with a wide part of the hair worn by Penelope Cruz. Because the hair is brushed smooth to one side, all the attention is focused on facial features and the front of the dress. The hair is bundled in a low bun around the nape for a clean, chic finish.

Wedding Hairstyles For Long Hair

You can do them yourself with a little practice with hot rollers, or you can take the idea to your stylist or on-site hair stylist and let them worry about the details.  A hot-set will lock in luscious curls and hold very well in most weather conditions.  If you want to wear a veil, ask your stylist to show you how to put in and take out the veil (or your Maid-of-Honor or Personal Attendant).

Wedding Hairstyles - Short and Sassy

Not all women will be able to style their hair like this, it requires a similar cut that can be shorter or longer but tapered at the sides. The focus is brought to the front and crown with some volume added to enhance the appearance.

Hair Products For Short Hair | Short Hairstyles

Even though you have found the perfect, cute, short haircut, it won’t take time to get messed up if you use the wrong kind of products. Female short hairstyles also need maintenance albeit not in a way that is required for long hair. A good conditioner, mousse, gel, sprays etc all help in creating the perfect look. So, go for in reputed brands when you make that purchase. Consult your hairstylist and know which products suit your short haircut. Look for herbal ones if you wish to avoid the harsh chemicals that may be found in most products today.

air Color:
Know your skin color before you opt to change the hair color. You may want to add some colored streaks for your short haircut, but it can turn to be a disaster if it does not blend with the skin. Colors can really help to enhance the hairstyle and help your very short haircuts look ultra glam, if done professionally.

Make up:
This is an important factor to consider for short hairstyle cuts. Very short haircuts bring more attention to your face. So, decide upon which are your best features and play upon them. If it’s the eyes, enhance them with good eye make up. If it’s your lips, you can enhance them with a good lip color.

Female short hairstyles look good with when combined with accessories. Long earrings or studs, chokers, chains, attractive pendants all help to bring the attention to the neck. A look through the malls would reveal a variety of options that you can use to decorate your short haircuts. Add some glitz to your hair locks with some trendy accessories.

So girls, its time to leave your worries behind and go in for a cute, short haircut that is bold, daring and makes you feel confident about yourself.
