Anne Hathaway's Wardrobe
& Other Red Carpet Stunners



Although I don't think anyone could steal the spotlight from Anne Hathaway and her big night as a superb choice for co-host of the 83rd Academy Awards with James Franco. Her classic beauty, amazing dresses and hairstyles, made her glow; but her humor and grace are what made her shine.

However, my favorite look of the night was worn by Matthew McConnaugh's lady, Camila Alves...


Other stunners... Reese Witherspoon had the best hairstyle wearing Georgio Armani Prive, Gwyneth was modern chic in Calvin Klein, and Mandy Moore glimmered in Monique Lhuillier.


Did you watch the show?
Who do you think had the best dress?

Thakoon Vamps Up His Models with Fabric Woven Hair




This New York Fashion Week, Thakoon added a tribal twist to his models messy updo by adding in multi-colored fabric. Thakoon's Fall 2011 Collection has been considered a mash-up of Marie Antoinette and a Maasai warrior. His eccentric clothing was a great hit but it was also the hair that added the finishing touch to the theme of this collection.

Turn Up the VOLUME

Thursday: Designer Spotlight
by: Meena, TREND writerHair reached new heights at Richie Rich's spring 2011 runway show during the Mercedes-Benz fashion week in New York. Voluminous hair has been a style that has withstood the course of time and can convey different moods depending on the intensity. It is a style that can be easily mimicked and has proven to be incredibly versatile. Bold make-up was accompanied by large bouffants and colorful hair accessories in Rich's newly unveiled Popluxe collection. Overall, this show truly paid a homage to a hair style that NEVER goes out of style and inspires women to turn up the volume, throw in an eccentric hair accessory, and feel like a runway model.





A Little Note

Travel Thursday & Freedom Friday
Fountain in Lucerne, Switzerland



Just a quick little note my friends...
I'm whipped beyond belief with emotion and exhaustion.
Tomorrow is my last day at work for an investment advisory firm,
 before I leap into new ventures
with Photography Getaways and beyond.
I'm filled with much emotion,
but just wanted to wish you a Happy Day.
(If you missed my Freedom Friday post about it, you can read it here.)

Stay tuned...
I've got some great posts coming up for you!
