I’m an all or nothing person, so in-between lengths or safe styles are never satisfying. Dramatic hair changes make me feel stong, rebellious and independent.  Pretty much all of the time I want my normal hair back, then a few months later, the dramatic hair change springs back into my brain.
 
So what’s HOT for Spring???
L O N G layers? Rhianna’s bob cut? Peek-a-boo highlights?! As with my wardrobe, I think that it’s time to revamp my hair-do!!!  Here are my favorite Hair Styles for SPRING…

Katie Holmes….O M G! She looks amazing in her short bob haircut. This haircut for her has made her face look slimmer and her neck longer. The bob is cut to line her jawline, which accentuates her cheekbones It works for her…maybe not me so much because I have a round face =)

Textured hair is hot for this spring, stowe away the curling iron natural waves is hot!! Here’s a tip, if you don’t have natural wavy hair (like myslef…my hair is pretty much stick straight)…make sure that your curling iron is 1 1/2 inches for big curls

And for the seasonal chameleons, winter is about going dark, spring is a time to go lighter….however not too light…a slight lightening of the winter hair color is just right.

 

 

 

 

***Since spring is less than a month away…March 20 my birthday to be exact…I’d suggest that we all start thinking about hairstyles for Spring 2008!!***

Sexy, single, and ready to mingle. That’s my typical moto for pretty much any Friday night. My weekends are usually my couple of days to dress up and feel pretty. During the week, my typical school attire looks like any other university student. Lots of Lululemon’s…lots of t-shirts…hair tied up in a messy bun…not so sexy. So when the weekend rolls around, I love to heat up that curling iron and slip on something that makes me feel FABULOUS!

It’s all about putting on  head-turning pieces at great university student prices!!! Another one of my favorite moto’s….SHARING IS CARING!! I am going to share some of my favorite pieces that I have in MY closest that I have found online for c h e a p C H E A P c h e a p ! ! ! (Under $200)

Something for a Friday dinner with the girlfriends and some late night dancing:

So we’re in the beginning of February, we should all vow to not buy one more Winter item and start looking for Spring clothes. Don’t start throwing your Winter clothes into the back of your closet because some trends are here to stay through Spring.
Here are a few basics that every girl needs to keep in her wardrobe, and some where she’ll find through retail therapy.
Things to keep:
- A vintage inspired leather biker jacket
- Jeans that you want to wear everyday, keep those skinny jeans they’re still HOT!!
- A fitted white button-up shirt. Something with a bit of Stretch (Lycra)
- Black pumps, still HOT!!
- Ballerina flats, something in a B O L D color
- Red heels, because they spice up any outfit!!
- A soft linen wrap scarf
- Off the shoulder or one shoulder tops or dresses. Let your shoulder be the focal point; skip the necklace, and pick great dangling
earings.
- Overszed clutch
Spring Splurge:
- Tie-dye
- Gladiator sandals
- Boho top (Bohemian)
- Soft pastel lip gloss **red is soo going out**
