2011 Fall Hairstyles

September 30, 2011 by IamMoody


After an entire summer of messy hairstyles, the sleeker hairstyles are back. This fall is going to be the season of flirty hairstyles and soft locks. These hairstyles will be easy to maintain and fun to play with. Natural beauty really is the hottest thing this season.

 

Hair colors are going to be natural this season. The season of bright, artificial colors has passed with the summer’s sun. This season will be about the natural shine of your hair. Hair dying will always be popular, but this season will see more warm natural colors. Expect a lot of warm brown tones, reds and soft blondes. Highlights this season will be as popular as ever, but this season will see more natural highlights, rather than the more frequently seen chunky highlights of the summer.

 

The refined pony tail will be the hottest hair style this fall. This hair styles keeps your hair out of the way, provides body and allows for a lot of play. The loose braid will also be a hot style for longer hair. This can be accented with ribbons or other things to spice up an outfit and add a bit of a flirtation to the hair. Pair this with the thick bangs of this season for a flirty and soft look that can be used for work and pleasure.

 

Twisting and pinning your hair back is becoming one of the hottest and is certainly one of the easiest ways to create an eloquent look. This can be done with a simple barrette or bobby pin. Feathers are still the hottest hair accessories, and feather clips are becoming very popular. These feather clips can be used instead of the feather hair extensions since it may not always be practical to wear feathers in your hair.

 

Curls are still as hot as ever. This season the curls are loose and soft, instead of tight. This can be done with a relaxant that is applied professionally. This can help to prevent the hair from becoming too strait. For those who have straight hair, using a straightener to maintain that sleek look is important. Some hair products will often be necessary to achieve these looks.

Fall Fashion

August 30, 2010 by IamMoody

As much as it pains me, the summer is almost over. This means it is time to start looking at a fall wardrobe. There are some fundamental differences between the summer wardrobe and the fall wardrobe. This does not mean that you cannot incorporate pieces from your summer wardrobe into your fall wardrobe though, providing that the pieces are temperature appropriate.

Texture and Weight

Fall is a time in which the temperature begins its decent into the realm of the cold. This does not mean that it is cold yet, but that it could easily become cold. Fall is the time of layering pieces to ensure that you do not freeze. Some of the best pieces for fall are light weight sweaters that feature the short sleeves and wider neck lines. These pieces can be layered with a small wrap or a tank top under them.

The texture for clothing that is fall appropriate should be cotton and a knit. This does not mean that you should be wearing a heavy sweater, but rather that the knit should be a thin and light weight knit material. Be careful that the outfit does not allow you to see through it. Look in a mirror under bright light and low light. Look for bra out lines or shifts in color that would be where your undergarments are located. If you can see your skin tone, then the knit is too open to be used alone. If you see this, put a tank top under the piece. Knit should only be worn on the top, not as a bottom.

Color

Fall is a more drab time of year. This is not to say that there is not burst of color in the fall time. The trees are alive with the fire colors and the sky can frequently still have the beautiful blue color to it. The grass may not be as green as it was, but it is not yet covered with the white of snow. There are some flowers that bloom in this transition time and will appear like oasis of summer and light in the fall world.

Take your que from nature. Wear colors that are vibrant in reds and browns. Small amounts of glitter or sparkle can be worn in your outfits to help to draw more light to you. A great way to get this look is to buy sweaters that have a single strand of metallic thread laced in with the threads used to create the knit. This helps to add a sparkle to the outfit with out over doing it.

Your bottoms should be weather appropriate. If it is cold, please skip the short skirts and hot pants. These outfits are more appropriate for summer. The skirts should be a little longer and walking shorts or Burmuda shorts are much more appropriate for this time of year. On damp days, consider wearing a pair of light weight jeans. Browns and blacks promise to be very popular this year as people are becoming more utilitarian clothing this year.

Cut

As we have discussed before, the cut of your outfits is very important. It helps to define your shape and define the outfit in general. Since it is fall, the ¾ sleeve is going to be more appropriate than the French cut sleeves. The V neck is very popular this year and I suspect it will remain popular as the season shifts. The great thing about the V neck is that it is a great shape for people with ample and not so ample bosoms.

The A line skirt is going to be a big hit this year. This skirt will provide people who do not have a lot of hip some additional shape. Those who are not lacking in hip will find that the skirt will help to balance their shape better than skirts that are pencil shaped. The mermaid skirts are not in this season.

Accessories

There is never enough talk about the accessories. This fall, the accessories are taking a card from the summer look. This includes big and bold pieces. Expect to see a lot of bold colors and clunky styles in the stores. Purses will act as the pops of color and the pieces of jewelry will have a brilliant look. Shoes should also act as pieces of interest. Jackets are not for warmth in this season, but rather as fashion accessories. The Pea coat is still the top of the line jacket and the large buttons help to add a balance to the outfit. Skip the hats early in the fall and allow a bright hair color or modern cut stand out.

Fall’s Hottest Shoes for Women

July 31, 2010 by IamMoody

Woman’s footwear is always changing. Not only does a woman need shoes that fit her outfit, but she needs the shoes to fit in with the latest styles. The next season’s shoes are already out on the market, and they are sharp, literally. The pointed pumps are back! This classic style never goes out of style, but every now and again, it gets the recognition that it deserves as a fashionable piece of a woman’s wardrobe.

There are some benefits to the pointed toe pump. First, they help to flatter every body type. They help to draw the eye into a very sharp and strait line. This helps to create length and leanness, even if the body is not quite as lean and long. It also helps to add a sense of confidence and sophistication to an outfit that would otherwise be less so. This style shoe does not cramp the toes like one would think, but rather extends beyond the toe leaving the toes in the wider section of the shoe.

The pointed toe pumps and shoes do not have to be plain and bland. They can be more daring and eye-catching. These shoes like the calf leather pump from Luis Vuitton sports a large bow over the toe of the pump. While this does distract from the line that the pump would otherwise create, it does add a visual interest to an otherwise boring shoe. The Slingback from Stella McCartney offers the best of the pointed heel pump and the sex appeal of the strappy heel. Covered with small studs, this shoe is all the rage with the sleek and the daring.

No matter what style of pointed toe pumps you favor, you will be the head of your fall fashion class with these shoes. Easy to pair with everything from jeans to a suit, the pointed toe pump and heels are incredibly versatile and flattering. Enjoy them and this fall season’s greatest styles.
