When looking for a hairstyle to accompany the sweet and innocent ‘floral’ look, a classy top-knot is the best way forward. Take inspiration from Whitney Port, and wear high on your head, or go for the more classic ‘bun’. Keep a pale palette looking upto-date by adding some striking coral lipstick. Topshop and Barry M offer a great selection. If you’re wary about the brightness of the coral, just dab a small amount on to your fingertip and apply lightly until you get the colour you desire. Another tip for keeping your face looking young and fresh: apply Vaseline to the eyelids, and just a small amount of mascara on your lashes. This will make your eyes look bright, and you’ll instantly look and feel as fresh as a daisy!
If you’re wondering where to go with your hair and make-up this season, take a note from the A-list celebrities. We’ve seen Alexa Chung, Drew Barrymore and now even Stacey Solomon giving it a go! A dip-dye hairstyle is slowly creeping to the top of everyone’s ‘must-have’ list. When going to the hairdressers, ask for “ombre” hair, or take in a picture of how you’d like it to be styled. If your hair is very dark, don’t dye the ends too blonde, just keep it a soft ash blonde colour. If you’re feeling really creative, you could even dye the ends a different colour. We’ve even seen models sporting the dip-dye effect with blue and pink at the ends of their hair! When it comes to make-up, keep either the eyes or the lips nude and the other bright: NEVER DO BOTH. Urban Decay offer a gorgeous shimmer green eye shadow, which looks great with dark eyeliner and nude lips. Alternatively, try a bright coral lip and just a lick of mascara on your eyelashes.
