Here's Kate Moss with a boycut that looks very chic on her. I actually like her better in short hair (like Linda Evangelista), she has great bangs here. Rather preppy and yet, it has a bit of an urban edge and definitely chic and sophisticated.

This unique cut is a short cut for a woman that looks like a checkered cut. The photo above it shows what she looks like with her head up. I think it's pretty amazing to look at. The hair is dyed a pale white adn then the clippers make the checkerboard look. The roots below make the "black" or darker squares. Pretty interesting styling here.

How To Get Ashley Greene’s Hairstyle

How To Get Ashley Greene’s Hairstyle. Ashley loves her retro styled hairstyles and she always looks gorgeous with her retro looks. Celebrity Stylist for Pantene, Danilo shows us how we can get Ashley's Mtv red carpet look.



  • Starting on wet hair, Danilo sprayed the Pantene Pro-V Root Lifter Gel on her crown to prime her hair for a voluminous shape on top
  • Since Ashley was stationed outside on the red carpet, Danilo combed through the Pantene Pro-V Restoratives Frizz Control Ultra Smoothing Balm from the mid-shaft of her hair to the ends to keep it looking sleek and frizz-free despite the humidity
  • After applying the balm, Danilo blow-dried her hair straight
  • Danilo then pulled the top half of her hair back, using his classic French Lacing technique to give her healthy volume on top while leaving a dramatic side part for contrast
  • Then he used a large iron to create her loose flowing curls underneath, combing when necessary

To hold the look in place, Danilo sprayed her hair with the Pantene Pro-V Texture Hairspray for moveable texture while she worked the carpet

How To Get Katy Perry’s Makeup Look

How To Get Katy Perry’s Makeup Look. Katy Perry is known for her bold lips and sparkling eyes. Last week at the VMA's Katy had a gorgeous look to go with her sparkling dress Covergirl makeup artist, Jake Bailey shows us how to get her looks by using simple Covergirl products.





Katy’s look was definitely inspired by her dress; she wore an outrageous metal spiked mesh mini by “The Blonds.” The dress reminded me of a Gianni Versace book I have called “Rock and Royalty” and the powerful iconic images in it. I wanted the eyes to evoke that type of decadent glamour and of course complement the sparkle of the dress with a little sparkle on the eyes.

We used NARS Oil Free foundation as Katy’s base and a pink shimmer Blush for some glow. We kept the lips matte so the emphasis was on her eyes, but they definitely were not without color! For the carpet, Katy wore a matte coral and for her performance and after party, she wore a matte red.

The eye look was done with black and gunmetal shadows, silver glitter and liquid liner. A great trick to wearing glitter like this, is to blend a little cream shadow onto the area where you want to place the glitter. You should do this once your eye makeup is finished. So as a last step, gently apply the glitter using your fingertip… just a little at a time in order to avoid a mess. Once finished use scotch tape to remove any excess glitter that may have fallen on the face. Press the tape gently into the skin and it picks it right up.

Katy’s lashes were ultra long and gorgeous thanks to COVERGIRL LashBlast Length Mascara.

Love for Labels

Love for Labels

Love for Labels

guccilogoA lot of times I wonder why I buy clothes and bags that are covered with labels. Everyone does it whether they do it on purpose or not. My friends and I went through the whole American Eagle and Abercrombie and Fitch phase. And the number of people wearing North Face has seem to grow even bigger these days. But what’s so great about these labels anyway?

In my opinion a North Face jacket was nothing more than an expensive outdoor coat. And the outdoor type of look never appealed to me, but I wanted it just as much as everyone else and probably for the same reason. The North Face label. The little text on the left shoulder. What an embarrassing reason!

Now, a few years after that whole obsession, I find myself with the same kind of fetish, except with higher-end brands like Gucci and Louis Vuitton. Although I’m not as tense about labels, in the back of my mind I know that I want that certain Gucci logo bag or the pair of Chanel sunglasses not exactly because I want or need them, but so I can feel “in style.” It got me thinking, as we grow older do we act the same with different commodities? Are labels constantly going to give us that certain satisfaction that we’ve always felt after buying them?

It may seem that I’m against brands, which is simply untrue, but everyone wearing the same thing gets really boring, no? As much as I love some of the most popular labels it almost seems like buying the same thing equals getting a nod of approval from friends and the community. I know that’s how I felt used to and sometimes even now.

Short and Sweet

Short and Sweet!

Many of Hollywood’s Leading Ladies Are Going for Shorter Locks for a Sweeter Look!

But this summer, many of Hollywood’s most recognized women are chopping it all off and we say, it’s about time! Ladies, follow the latest Hollywood trend and feel ok about getting rid of those fake extensions and dried-out ends.

Two of the most inspiring new hairstyles are Katie Holmes’ layered bob and Renee Zellweger’s cropped cut. Here are the secrets to what they did and who can pull it off.

Pump up the Volume!

Her shoulder-length, baby-fine hair looked over-processed and hung limply below her shoulders. Renee’s new hairstyle is very short, with long, textured layers throughout. Her hair now looks thicker and healthier, and it opens up her entire face.

While most stylists would not recommend this hairstyle on someone with a round face shape like Renee, the style works very well for her because of her sharp cheekbones. This is a perfect hairstyle for women with fine hair because it adds fullness and body. Those with thick, curly hair should wear it shorter (á la Kerry Russell from her “Felicity” days) or a bit longer to avoid the dreaded football helmet comparison.

Women need to remember that this style is not as low-maintenance as it appears. There are no ponytail fixes, and you must commit to wash and style your hair everyday.

Grow Up!

Unfortunately for Tom (who, rumor has it, loves women with long hair), Katie’s long, girlish hairstyle did not flatter her body type or facial features. Katie has a downward-turned eye shape and a long, narrow body. Her long hair seemed to drag down her features even more, making her appear droopy and shapeless. Her new chin-length style lifts her face and opens her eyes, and the shaggy layers add movement and a grown-up sex appeal.

Virtually anyone can pull off this look. The secret is adjusting the length and amount of layers to compliment your face shape.

Take Note:

  • Those with long, narrow faces should add side-swept bangs to add fullness to the face.

  • Women with round faces should aim for a below-the-chin length and long layers to avoid adding additional width.

  • Women with squared-shaped faces will find that long, soft layers will soften hard jaw lines and add femininity to their look.

While these styles look beautiful on Renee and Katie, remember that they won’t work for everyone. Make sure to consult with your hair designer to customize a look that works best for you.

short hair, short hairstyles, short haircuts, jenny mccarthy hair, jenny mccarthy pic, jenny mccarthy photo, victoria beckham, victoria beckham hair, victoria beckham haircut, short hair cuts, bob, bob hairstyles, maintaining short hairShort hairstyles are taking the world by storm. Everyone from Victoria Beckham and Jenny McCarthy to your sister and neighbor are chopping off their long locks and revealing fun and sassy short styles. To find the perfect short style for you, consider the maintenance, upkeep, and how much time you are willing to spend on it day to day. If you want to try a shorter style without sacrificing a soft, sultry look, then try a chin-length bob that will give you the versatility of layers, but also give you the sexy look of short hair. But if you are willing to go a little bolder in your style, try short, choppy layers like Sharon Stone once had. No matter what short style you choose, pick one that suits you. And always, consult your stylist when it comes to any questions you have or suggestions you may need.

Practice Product Usage

Take advantage of all the wonderful products available for short hairstyles. Usage of waxes, pomades, gels and creams will be great to bring out the best of your short hair. If you are looking for a soft and sultry look (think Katie Holmes’ softly layered bob), use a cream based product like Fresh’s Anti-Frizz Hair Cream! This is a fabulous short hair product because it adds sheen, texture, and control to short hairstyles. For fun and funky hair like Victoria Beckham’s latest style, try a hair wax to funkify your style. Try using a little Luco Hair Spray Wax and twist the product in. Remember to keep your short ‘do fun and stylish by using product.

Maintain Your Style

With short hairstyles, it is very important to maintain your haircut every 4-6 weeks. Maintaining your style is important when you have short hair because short hairstyles can lose their shape faster than other hairstyles. Short hair can also benefit from color and highlights to give it dimension and depth. You can up your funk factor by putting in reds and copper highlights. Blonde colors are also a great way to brighten your short strands. Just remember that, along with your haircut, maintaining your color is essential.

Short hair is fresh and fun and let’s your personality really shine through. Short hair will suit you best if you get the right style for your face shape and maintain it by scheduling appointments with your stylist regularly. Enjoy your short style!

Working in Costumes

Working in Costumes

Everyone is looking for that fun job that you can enjoy and there are plenty. At Sonics you get to skate around and serve people and engineers seem to work at Google because of the playground environment; let’s face it: we all want to have an exciting job and sometimes that’ll even makeup for the low wages.

Crazy as it may sound, cafes in Tokyo actually hire young, cute girls that will dress up like elegant maids and serve their customers, which are mostly men, like masters. Many Japanese people, even families, are into “costume playing” or dressing up like anime characters and a few years ago the first maid cafe was created in a city in Tokyo. Service is a lot different than a regular restaurant or cafe and the workers treat their customers with great respect.

So who actually comes to these cafes? Young boys and rich men? Not quite, but close. Most of the customers end up being geeks that read the manga and watch the anime shows on TV. I find it rather amusing.

I think the whole idea of working in costumes is an interesting idea, but I think I would get tired of it in the end. The maid costume is cute and certainly more creative than an ordinary work dress code, but the whole job working as a maid sounds very demanding. So what’s your idea of a fun job?

Ashlee Simpson’s New Red ‘Do

Get Simpson's Sultry New Style!

Have you seen Ashlee Simpson’s new hairstyle? How could you miss it? Quite the color chameleon, Miss Simpson has now changed her haircolor to a gorgeous deep red hue. What a striking change from her previous haircolors of black, blonde and blonder. This color is suitable for anyone looking for something fresh and new.

How to Get Simpson’s New Hue

So what can you do to get Ashlee Simpson’s new hue? Well, if you have never been a redhead but have always wanted to try it, use a semi-permanent hair color the first time around. This way, if you end up not swooning over the new style, it will wash out after a few weeks. However, if you do like it, you can just replace the semi-permanent with a permanent color the next time. To get this style at home, I suggest doing this only if your haircolor is in the same level naturally. For example, if you are currently sporting your natural haircolor, which happens to be dark blonde or light brown, a DIY job would come out super stylish. However, if this will be a drastic change, leave it to the professionals.

For those of you wanting a drastic change, see your stylist ASAP for this look. Bring in a current picture of Ashlee Simpson to your stylist so that he/she won’t be confused about the color. Your stylist will probably have to do more than one process, and for extra shine, you can request a shine enhancing glaze to finish your color off.

Do Maintain Your 'Do

To keep your style stunning, use color protecting shampoo, conditioner, and styling products daily. We suggest using a brand like Pureology that keeps haircolor from fading. Try Pureology’s Hydrate Shampoo and Conditioner for dry and damaged hair. It will leave your color bright and your hair healthy.

Holiday Hairstyle1: Headband

Holiday Hairstyle #1: Headband

Paris Hilton wears this popular look

A great holiday style that always looks chic is voluminous hair styled off the face with a headband.

  • For a style like this, wash your hair with a volumizing shampoo and conditioner like Kenra Volumizing Shampoo and Conditioner.
  • Next, blow dry hair upside down to give maximum volume to limp locks.
  • Then, put large hot rollers throughout your hair and let sit until they cool (about 30 minutes).
  • Tease your hair at the roots and smooth all the hair back off the face and secure with a headband.
  • Spritz hair with a firm hold hairspray to give your look the staying power it needs to make it through the event.

Holiday Hairstyle #2: Ponytail

Kristen Bell's ponytail screams chic!

Another stylish look is the ponytail. The party perfect ponytail is a dressed up version of an everyday pony. This is a look that can take you from work time to party time very easy. To get this look:

  • Run a flat iron over ½ inch sections of your hair at a time, making sure that you get maximum smoothness.
  • Then tease the top of your hair at the roots to give a little lift.
  • Next, pull your hair into a ponytail, smoothing out your teased roots so they are smoothed into the pony.
  • Then wrap a section of your hair around the elastic to conceal it and secure with a bobby pin. From here you can leave it or dress it up with a beautiful hair accessory, it’s your call.

Julia Stiles has the perfect messy updo!

For a holiday event that calls for more of a dressed-up ‘do, try a chic updo.

  • For an effortless, but glamorous look, pull your hair back into a ponytail.
  • Split the ponytail into two and wrap both the pieces around the pony and secure with another elastic band or bobby pins; the messier the better.
  • If any pieces fall out around your face, leave them or curl them with a large barrel curling iron to give the look dimension.
  • Spray the entire style with a light hold spray like Paul Mitchell Soft Spray, which will finish your look without making it stiff or sticky.

With all these stylish holiday hair choices, you should be able to switch your look from one party to the next with ease. Have a great holiday, and more importantly, great holiday hair!

A girl’s most important day of her life…

A girl’s most important day of her life…

promIs often said to be her senior prom. But who knows, everyone has their own special night – it could be their sweet sixteen, their first anniversary with their significant other, or for some the day they get their acceptance letter from Harvard University. It all varies from one girl to another, but it’s that time of year when girl’s all over the nation are receiving letters from boutiques and prom magazines begging them to look at all the different dresses they have to offer.

I personally have never been to prom, *thankfully* (all the drama is just too much), but I have seen my some photos from my friends junior prom. They all look beautiful with their hair done by professionals and their makeup so perfect. But when it comes to the dresses, sometimes I wonder, “What was she thinking?!” They’re dressed in bright neon green and pink gowns, silky dresses that shine like a sun’s ray in the light, and the diamonds embedded into the dress line which makes it seem more tacky than ever.

Okay, so most of us don’t live the life of Blair Waldorf or A-class celebrities, so dressing up for an event, riding in the limousine, and eating at the most luxurious restaurant is extremely exciting. Most girls don’t have many opportunities to dress up formally and feel like the princess that they have always been dreaming of being. That being said, I know it can become overwhelming when choosing a dress so important, and sometimes I think girls go overboard. So here are my suggestions to picking the right gown for you which will make you look like a part of a red-carpet event, instead of circus:

- Stay with traditional elegant colors: black, white, navy, light pastel colors. I would personally stay away from bright colors like green – they end up looking more tacky than elegant.

- Prints are fun to play with, however, a simple design also looks gorgeous, just make sure it has a little bit of texture like ruffles.

- Have a favorite red-carpet star? Take notice of what type of gowns and dresses she wears to achieve that look!

- Don’t overdo your hair. Tons of braids will make the overall look really overdone. I suggest a nice wave of curls or a bun styled up for a special occasion.

- Shoes are important too! We all know that they’re not going to be incredibly comfortable, but I recommend getting a pair that will let you glide across the floor instead of tripping all over your dress. Sometimes that means a higher heel would work better, but it’s really up to you.

The most important thing is that you enjoy the night. Have fun preparing for the big night, but don’t let it get to you! And don’t kill yourself if another girl is wearing the SAME exact dress. Instead put a little humor into the whole situation and compliment her on how beautiful her dress is. :)
