This season relax your locks a little!

This season relax your locks a little!

After an assortment of endless seasonal dos, Christmas outings and office parties our hair can often feel a little malnourished and over heated.  Now the parties are over why not put down the styling irons and opt more a more low-key style.

Think relaxed styling and great colour for 2011 and work Sienna Millers uber cool locks for the New Year.

Sienna Miller has recently been seen sporting a relaxed topknot, which the actress has taken from this season’s catwalk shows, the un-done element of this particular look suits her style perfectly and plays up to her infamous boho look.

This look will not only look uber glamorous it is also extremely easy to achieve, you don’t even require a hairbrush!

Firstly you must rough dry the locks, using a comb back comb the hair gently before gathering up into a high pony tail using your fingers.  Pin the pony into a relaxed and playful bun, keeping it organic and undone will create a carefree style that won’t resemble the buns the cabin crew wear.

If you wish to colour your hair go for a beautifully soft and natural shade as this will work perfectly with the un-done style of the look.  It doesn’t even matter if your true colour shows through as this all adds to the effortless effect of the style.

Take a few style notes from Sienna Miller and work the right balance of sexy nonchalance.  Honey-beige tones compliment blue eyes and an English rose complexion the best

Inside Blake Lively’s stylish wardrobe.

Blake Lively not only plays a main part in one this season’s top TV shows but is also proving herself to be a little bit of a style icon.

The actress may work the pretty, preppy; girl next-door look on screen but off screen is another story!  The A-lister’s style has gone supersonic this summer, she has been seen wearing the likes of prestigious designers such as Chanel, Marchesa, Ralph Lauren, Stella McCartney, Matthew Williamson and Juicy Couture, and these are just a few of the designers flooding Blake’s much desired wardrobe.

Lively was seen chatting to US Vogue’s Anna Winter at the Paris Couture Shows, Wintour has in fact stated she is one of Lively’s biggest fans and to prove this Blake is to appear on the cover of Vogue for the second time in six months!

Despite having one of the most enviable wardrobes to date, the actress’s real passion is shoes.  It has been reported that Lively has in fact purchased over three hundred pairs in the past two years alone, dedicating an entire closet to her much beloved footwear!

Her love for clothes and shoes began at a very young age, her mother who was a former model would tailor adult clothes to fit Blake as she didn’t want her to be seen in anything similar to the other children but instead as an individual.  It’s however Blake’s naturalness and ease that really gets our attention, she doesn’t seem too perfect nor too sultry and this is exactly why she is quickly becoming recognised as a major fashion icon.
