  • HOW TO: Get Celebrity Hair with a Sparkle

    HOW TO: Get Celebrity Hair with a Sparkle

    With wedding season upon us, whether you are the blushing bride to be, maid of honour, bridesmaid or even a guest, we have a step by step guide to help you recreate these celebrity hair styles at home! The best thing about these three hair styles is how they can transform your look from subtle to standout with the addition of the perfect hair accessory!

    1 – Old Hollywood

    Amanda Seyfried
    Amanda Seyfried
    1. Part your hair to one side, we recommend parting it directly above your eyebrow arch. Use the end of a tail comb for a super straight line.
    2. Curl all of your previously blow dried hair in the same direction using a large curling rod (we recommend the 1.5 inch Sultra Bombshell available at Sephora)
    3. Spray with hair spray and let it set for a few minutes. Brush your hair through so the curls become soft waves and style with your finger tips.
    4. Pull back the smaller side of your hair behind your ear and discreetly pin it using Kirby grips.
    5. Hair spray your hair in place, make sure you do this before you insert your decorative crystal clip as hair spray can tarnish your beautiful hair accessory.
    6. Add your sparkle and shine the night away!
    Khloe Kardashian
    Khloe Kardashian wearing Jennifer Behr

    We recommend the Jennifer Behr Crystal Leaves Barrette. Or how about the Jennifer Behr Silver Primrose Bobby Pin a la Khloe Kardashian…

    2 – The French Twist 

    Carrie Underwood
    Carrie Underwood
    1. Part your previously blow dried hair, if your hair is easier to style when curly or straight do so now.
    2. Choose your desired parting if any and back comb the crown of your head for volume.
    3. Brush back one side of your hair using a paddle brush and pin at the back of your head.
    4. Brush back the rest of your hair and twist it inwards, around your fingers.
    5. Secure tightly and discretely with Kirby grips and fix with hair spray.
    6. Pin in your decorative clips or comb in the nook you created. Use more than one for a fairytale finish.

    Here are a few of our favorites that would work perfectly…

    Minka Kelly
    Minka Kelly
    1. If you like your hair curly or straight style it now.
    2. Brush back all of your hair, excluding your fringe if you have one.
    3. Separate the front section of your hair and backcomb the rest of your hair on your crown.
    4. Brush back your hair again, including  the separated section. This will smooth your hair over, whilst still giving you lots of volume.
    5. Pull back with your hands all of the hair you wish to pin up and secure at the back of your head.
    6. Spray with hair spray to hold, then add your decorative hair pin.

    Minka Kelly wore the Jennifer Behr Crystal Feather Comb, we say this style would also look gorgeous with the Jennifer Behr Waterfall Flip Clips!

    Another hue stealing the spotlight in the Golden Globe Jewelry style stakes was elegant emerald. Both the effortlessly glamorous Helen Mirren and fun-loving Jennifer Lawrence chose to adorn their lobes with this enticing shade of emerald green. Ms Mirren’s emerald drop earrings perfectly complemented her matching green Jenny Packham dress and Roger Vivier clutch. Jennifer Lawrence made her mark in a white and wonderful sleeveless Dior ball gown and chose to complete her look with a simple black box clutch, a stack of black and silver toned bangles, and dazzling drops of green emerald crystal earrings.

  • HOW TO: Stack Bracelets

    HOW TO: Stack Bracelets

    Adoring your arm with a stack full of bangles is once again a major top trend. Stacking bangles is an art form, requiring a perfect mix of colours, textures and various size bracelets and bangles.
    Blake Lively 
    Drew Barrymore
    Olivia Palermo
     
    To get your arms looking as beautiful as Drew, Olivia & co, just follow our guide on how to stack your arm candy in the most stylish way:
    1. Odd numbers are more visually appealing, so start with just three or five bangles. Wear more if you feel comfortable to gain maximum impact.
    2.Keep to the same shades or styles i.e. all gold. Crystals are a neutral and can be worn with whites or silvers.
    Sarah Jessica Parker
    3.Pick a theme and stick to it! (For example; edgy, preppy or ethnic.) An edgy spike bracelet will look out of place alongside a tribal friendship bracelet.
    Heidi Klum
    4. Consider the fit of your bracelets. Bangles with a larger circumference will sit lower on the wrist and fall over smaller sized bracelets. Keep to similar sizes for a clearer, more streamlined look.  
    5. Start with the largest, boldest or widest bracelet toward your elbow and add smaller bracelets as you move towards your wrist. (Sometimes this rule can be broken by making the SECOND TO THE TOP bracelet the biggest instead of the first.) See what suits your arms best.
    Rihanna
    6. Watches can also be added to your stacking selection – just follow the rules above and ensure the size and colour complements your bracelets.
    7. It’s OK to experiment and add in other materials, such as leather, thread or plastic. Again, just keep to your chosen colour theme.
    8. With all this attention being drawn to your wrists, it’s advised to keep your nails manicured or painted, as they’ll now also be on display.
    And remember…
     
    The ever-glamouours stylist, editor and designer, Rachel Zoe always uses the phrase ‘more is more is more’. When it comes to stacking bangles along your arm – this phrase is only too true!
    Follow these rules and simple steps to earn yourself some serious stacking-chic style cred!
