SPRING INTO BEAUTY | HAIR + BEAUTY TRENDS

Alexander Wang SS13

Iam really excited about Spring and Summer! Here in Texas it might feel like we just have two seasons since it is either really hot or really cold and in between we have rainy days and some perfect ones. Spring/Summer though have to be my favorite seasons especially spending those hot summer days at the beach or the lake with my friends and family or those days where the weather is in the perfect 70s and with clear skies we love to have cookouts or visit our favorite flea markets.

I mentioned in my previous fashion post how excited I am about upcoming trends. I think that sometimes we tend to think how over the top some of the looks we see in the runway and often say to ourselves "Who would wear that, I wouldn't!" But we have to learn that the key is to wear what catches your attention and what you are comfortable in and not wear it all together!

Keep reading below to see my favorite upcoming beauty trends { shown in bold. }

The middle part is making a comeback you can keep it simple by parting sleek hair as seen in the Blumarine runway or you can also try a low pony or even a low bun. *Use a defrizzing cream to achieve ultra sleek hair! If you are looking for something more fun then try loose tousled hair like we saw in the J. Mandel show those effortless waves aren't going anywhere anytime soon so brush away those curls. Slept-in, natural hair as well as crimped hair was very popular on the runways. *I personally loved the Betsey Johnson show uber fun! Pair candy colored hair (like what we saw in the Oscar de la Renta show) with a heavy side part or a punk-y hairstyle. Braids are hot right now and perfect for Spring or Summer *My personal favorite the 'Milkmaid Braid' there is tons of versions you just have to play with it and make it your own you will find the one that fits your face shape. Retro glam basically anything 50's 60's inspired is in I love retro hair and topping it off with hair accessories like headbands.

 

It is all about natural bold brows, luminous skin and smoky lids so ditch the mascara and rock bare natural lashes (try eyelash extensions for natural length pair it with bold liner, bright eyeshadow (pink and red shades are hot for Spring!) Pucker up with matte bold red lips. Give your nails a natural feel by getting a white manicure or using a nude nail polish.
