The Fringe

TRANSITION HAIR: fall styles to wear NOW!

Can you believe it?  We're cruising through another incredible summer, but fall's fashions have already been unveiled on catwalks around the world.  We've been seeing some seriously amazing autumn trends that work right now as well.  Update your style with something that will carry your coif courageously into the cooler weather; it doesn't take much!  Read on for some of my favorite transitional trends!

THE FRINGE:

Personally, I'm always a fan of some fabulous fringe.  It's one of the easiest and least committal ways to spruce up your style, and this fall its all about framing that beautiful face of yours.  And be bold!  The most current way to wear fringe is heavy and rounded, as seen on the runways of Marni, Elie Saab, and Kate Spade.  So haute.

THE SHORT HAIRCUT:

This cut has been EVERYWHERE lately, and with good reason!  This short and soft crop is so easy to wear, and is universally flattering!  The shape follows the roundness of the head, and can be worn a million and one ways. Talk to your pro about what works best for you.  GORGEOUS!

Long fringe, smoothed texture.

Balmain f/w '12, textured layers.

Piecey fringe, soft volume.

Sharp and polished with fringe.

THE STYLE:

Sleek, slick, and smooth is the name of the styling game next season.  Not looking to rid your self of length?  STYLE IT, my dear! Go for understated glam with glossy locks; works on all lengths from short to long, and can even be incorporated with a ponytail!  With lower humidity on the way, this style is a welcome contrast to the summer's relaxed texture.

But as always, lets keep looking forward!

Stay gorgeous,
