The Ladylike Up Do
Last seasons tousled, just got out of bed hair is still very much on trend but there is also another option for those who prefer a more polished look. The chignon or ladylike up do was spotted at many a catwalk and is the perfect way to show off the seasons statement necklace. If you have long hair an up do works well with almost any evening wear, it can also be worn in the day time for a bit of added glamour.

At Marc Jacobs, hair was scaped back into a severe and very neat bun. This works well with eighties style make up and is a great way to show off razor sharp cheek bones.

At Bottega Veneta, hair was rolled around the neck but looked just a bit undone, perhaps just as it would look after a hard night of partying.

At Louis Vuitton, the hair was very feminine and elegant with a loosley structured but very high up do and wavy sweeping fringe.

At Elie Saab, the whole show had a nostalgic feel about it. The retro hair styles were smooth and polished for a look that oozed screen siren appeal.

These hair styles may look like a bit of a challenge to create but the effort will be well worth it. All you need is a mirror, perhaps a willing friend to help and an array of hair accessories including grips, rollers and lots of hairspray.
These BaByliss ceramic high speed rollers are perfect for creating quick up do’s, they heat up an in minutes and give a smooth shiny finish.
