Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow?

I'm finally getting my hair done this morning! I'm so excited. I LOVE getting my hair done. Being in the salon, chatting up with my stylist, coming out a new woman, it's the best feeling ever. I've really been thinking about cutting it shorter, into a longer bob or a lob. It's one of my favorite cuts and I've always gone back to it several times since high school. I feel so cliche to cut my hair after having a baby though. Or after your wedding. It's like you keep a look for so long for something and once the event is over, there goes your hair length or color.

What I like most about the lob is that it gives you the opportunity to cut your hair without it being too short and it still can be put up in a ponytail. For me, I consider it the best of both worlds. I adore short hair, I had it all through high school and really miss it sometimes, but short hair can be such a pain. You have to do it everyday and it can take longer to style than long hair. Right now I wash my hair 1-2 times a week and curl it only every 3 days and I don't know if I could keep that up with short hair. With a lob, I can. Here are my favorite cuts on celebrities.

I love that you have so much versatility with this cut. It looks great curled, messy, straight, and it's long enough to put up. I know I sound like a broken record, but maybe it's because I'm trying to talk myself into cutting off the few inches of length I have. Maybe I'll just get my hair colored and trimmed, but not cut. Who knows.

If I could walk out with any hair I wanted, it would have to be Blake's. She has the most beautiful hair in all the land. The color, the length, the messy curls, I die. Her hair always looks good, I've never seen it look bad. Ever. It's like it was weaved from threads of gold by Rumpelstiltskin. Her hair color is perfection, I want to get as close to her color as possible.

What's your favorite cut? Do you have a signature style? What celebrity's hair do you covet?

Celeb Inspiration: Olivia Palermo

I've never watched "The City", but I do watch Olivia Palermo's fashion choices. She is the epitome for chic, preppy, feminine and classy. Her style choices remind me very much of my favorite show "Gossip Girl". Olivia is a trendsetter with her fabulous fashion sense, a total style queen. Let's take a look at her personal style.

Flirty Skirts: What's more feminine than a skirt? Olivia brings the skirt out in full force, great shoes, structured bag and a flirty top. A skirt is so easy to wear and is suitable for tons of occasions; parties, work, fashion week, etc. It's also a snap to accessorize with belts, jackets, and tights.



Cardigans and Jackets: Miss Palermo shows us the perfect way to use a jacket or cardigan to change the feel of an outfit. Need to dress up your look? Add a blazer or detailed cardigan. Need to make the outfit more casual? Use a long cardigan and a belt for a day time look.


Feminine Details: Again, Olivia has to be one of the most feminine dressers in the US. She's never overly done, but always carries an understated air of womanly sophistication. Want an elegant touch to your clothing? Look no further than some girly details to solve your problem. Florals, lace, and bow will add a ladylike touch to any outfit!


Fun with Fashion: No style icon is without fearlessness in fashion choice. Mixing prints, textures, or going for major drama, Olivia has it nailed.


What do you think of Olivia's style? Do you like it? What's your favorite look of hers?

People Magazine's 10 Best Dressed

People Magazine came out with their 10 Best Dressed for this year. Here's the list:

-Jennifer Aniston

-Rihanna

-Jessica Alba

-Lea Michele

-Zoe Saldana

-Gwen Stefani

-Kate Middleton

-Rachel Bilson

-Olivia Palermo

-Diane Kruger

Do you agree? For the most part I do, I don't think that Jennifer Aniston should be on there- she so boring and she had a lot of so-so moments this year, Rihanna would be on my list for last year, but I feel that this year she's in a weird transition period for her style. Gwen Stefani does always look fabulous, but I don't know many people who copy her style because it's not something most everyday women can pull off. Kate Middleton- she's Prince William's boo if you don't recognize her name. I wouldn't list her just because most people don't really know who she is.


Here's my updated 10 Best Dressed for 2010 to replace those four, but keeping the remaining six:



-Blake Lively: She always looks fabulous and sexy!
-Cameron Diaz: This year's Oscar dresses blew me away! Plus her everyday style is gorgeous.
-Dakota Fanning: Love her red carpet choices and she always dresses her age.
-Lady Gaga: Would I wear everything she does? Hell no. Do most everyday women wear what she wears? Hell no. But is she not afraid to be who she is and uses fashion to make a statement? Hell yes and that's why she's on my list.
