Hair Trends For Spring 2014

Yesterday we looked at Makeup Trends for Spring 2014,
today lets check out the new season's hair trends.

1.) Windswept Updo's


Super soft, undone and somewhat sexy, the messy updo is back.
All you need is a one inch barrel curling iron to pull off this look from the Michael Kors Spring 2014
runway show. Other designers showed messy french twists and back-combed loose updo's.

2.) Slicked Back

Several designers showed slicked back, smoothed down hair for Spring 2014. Some used center parts, others like these images from John Galliano Spring 2014, didn't.
All however used grooming products to keep flyaways at bay and keep the hair smooth.

Makeup Trends For Spring 2014

Spring is now in full force, and if you haven't done so already,
it's time to update your makeup wardrobe
to fit the new season.
Or maybe you just want a few ideas 
for how to pull it all together for Easter.
Either way, its time to hit the makeup stores
and stock up on the new colors.

Here are the 5 major makeup trends for Spring 2014


1.) Metallic Eyes
Seen here at the Jason Wu Spring 2014 show at New York Fashion Week, beautiful, shimmering, metallic eyes.
Look for complimentary bronzes and warm golds to flatter skin tone, and make green and brown eyes spark.
Choose products with small particles - large glittery particles not only fall down your face, but look tacky too.


 2.) Orange Is The New Red
Try a bold orange mouth. Play with color to see which works best for you, choosing from a full blown orange to coral to tangerine to mandarin. Opt for formulas that have a slight sheen to them, making the lip look more succulent.




3.) The Cat Eye


Molly Roncal created this fabulous, pronounced cat eye offset with a metallic sheen for the Tracy Reese Spring 2014 runway show.
The key to pulling off a great springtime cat eye is to make that the central focus of your makeup, toning everything else down, and scaling back all other drama.

4.) White Eyeshadow

 There are two ways to wear the Spring 2014 white eyeshadow.
Above, (from the Alice and Olivia Spring 2014 runway show) the look is an iridescent wash of white shadow, with white liner. 
This is the easier of the two to pull off for a fresh faced, dewy spring look.
The other look seen below at Altuzarra Spring 2014 runway show is a more opaque, more densely packed white shadow



5.) The Soft Berry Lip


If you want to keep it soft and pretty, or if a bold lip feels too big for you, try out a soft berry lip, such as this one seen at 
Michael Kors Spring 2014. Berry tones not only spark green and blue eyes, but they also make your teeth look super white.
Simplifying your look, and building from a glowing complexion will always make you look fresh and dewy.

Lorde Covers Fashion Magazine

Teen pop sensation and fellow Kiwi, Lorde
covers the May 2014 issue of Canada's Fashion Magazine.


After being completely underwhelmed by her hair and makeup
at the Grammys this year,I am loving the transformation
by hairstylist and makeup artist Simone Otis.
I get that she loves a more goth vibe,
but I personally think she looks absolutely stunning in these images.

As much as I like these more glamorous shots of her,
Lorde keeps it real, posting untouched images of herself,
and questioning photoshopped images that make her look too perfect.
