The short boy look gets a make over for 2012! The new adaptation of the pixie cut is right on trend this season and it has already been massive influence on the catwalks of a lot of designers so this is your hot ticket to stardom!

The most shocking and adventurous part of the cut is the really short fringe. This is what will distinguish the fashion followers with the fashionistas.

To pull of this look think “Girl With The Dragon Tattoo” the sexy Hollywood remake has awoken our inner rock chick and gotten us to widely agree that rock chick has never really gone away from our sights, so Rock will always be cool in our books. The beauty of this style is that you can have any hair colour and it would only add to the drama to the cut and make it unique. Originally it should be worn with dark hair but the contrast of colour and the sharp cut of the fringe will make a different statement on its own. Have fun this one girls!

‘Side’ hairstyles are a significant trend this season, and because it’s Christmas soon, here’s a selection of the very best side hair trends and styles for December!

Side-Plait

We love Beyonce. Everybody loves Beyonce. So take a leaf out of her book and sport the Side-Plait hairstyle with a super-glam outfit- like in this picture – to party the night away this Christmas!

Beyonce’s Side-Plait compliments her simple and natural make-up choices, which includes lightly blushed cheeks, a light eye shadow base and a pink lip-gloss.

The hairstyle looks even more fab with her ombre’d hair so the style is making the best out of both colours of her hair.

Beyonce’s choice of a side-fringe makes the overall look a lot more trendy and chic.

Who knew that such a simple style would make you feel just like a star?

Side-Parting

Camilla Belle looks absolutely stunning here with her side-parted up-do and this is a perfect, practical hairstyle for Christmas dos.

Up-dos and buns are associated with elegance, so choosing a side parting can alternate the look to suit your own style.

A side parting can add a sparkling touch of glamour to anyone’s hairstyle, and will grant you a Red Carpet look in minutes!

Camilla’s choice of a fuchsia coloured lipstick adds femininity to her overall look and makes her look quite sophisticated.

The powerful up do is still going strong this season . Seen at Salvatore Ferrangamo fashion show .

Feminine punks

Seen on the catwalk for Donna Karen , Fendi and bottega.

The ponytail.

Probably the simplest of styles yet it was seen on several catwalks this season.

Kate moss was seen at Louis Vuitton with her hair scraped back in a loose ponytail.

One of the hottest trends of the late summer is now making its way into our winter collections too.

Dip dyed roots basically means starting your hair at one colour and then gradually fading the colour to a different one at the tips.  There was a time when showing your roots meant that you couldn’t afford to re-dye your hair and meant the look was considered cheap and tacky, but no longer. Designers and Celebs alike have brought the dare to bare your roots style back into fashion and we love it!

If you like subtle styles then take inspiration from Alexa Chung and Rachel Bilson who work this look in with natural highlights.

However if you’re feeling really brave then why not make a statement with some iconic bright colours!

I love this look not only because it’s so on trend and looks amazing, but also because it’s quite low maintenance colour wise. Once you have the effect put in you can let your hair grow out quite a lot before you have to go back to your stylist for a re-do. So this look is not only fashionable, but economical too!

I must give one piece of advice though, unless you are truly edgey I would say to stay away from block colours and fade your hair gradually, even with a crazy colour this still creates a nice subtle look.

If I was you, I would avoid this…

But maybe that’s just me. What are your thoughts on this season’s must have style? Let us know below!

Bobs have been the No.1 ‘It’ style for 2011, and the trend has just got hotter this Autumn!

A bob is available in a huge variety of styles, which can range from Angled Bobs, to Chin Bobs. And with lots of fantastic celebrities showing off this hairstyle too, you can’t put a foot wrong with this fabulous, classic trend!

Keira Knightley:

Keira’s bob is edgy and chic as she creates soft, subtle bangs by adding waves, as well as a side fringe. The waves make her style resemble a messy bob, and allows more of her face to be covered, which helps to shape it into more of a heart shape (which most of us would envy for!).

Her messy bob also makes her low-lights stand out, but not on an over-the-top level, and it’s always great to show off two different shades of your hair in one go!

Her smokey eye make-up goes very well with the deep chocolate colour of her hair, and her rose-shaded lipstick makes her look a lot more seductive and glamorous.

Jessica Alba:

Jessica’s Long Inverted Bob Hairstyle is an absolute classic; it is a very simple hairstyle, complimenting a simple look, and she still looks stunning!

With minimal make-up, she manages to grab everyone’s attention to her hair, which makes her look sophisticated yet alluring. Her use of a glossy, sparkly lip-gloss of a pinky shade is the key to the touch of glamour to her fashionable look.

Jessica’s hair is poker-straight, which makes her look tidy and professional, as well as adding elements of power to her overall look.

The ‘Bob’ trend is getting hotter and hotter this autumn, so it’s not too late to jump on the wagon!

As always, our favourite celebrities dazzled at the MTV Awards this year. Not only did Beyonce announce her long-awaited pregnancy, but the female stars at this year’s awards, also sported the best of the latest hair trends.

Beyonce

Labeled as the trend of the evening, Beyonce sported a simple side ponytail, which really goes with her make-up.

Her choice of wearing a pink/nude lip-gloss shade with minimal eye make-up was a good one, as the simplicity of her look allows her lovely ombre’d hair to be a focal point.

Ombre hair was a hot trend of the summer, but it looks like Beyonce has just continued it into autumn. By putting her ombre’d hair in a side ponytail, not only is Beyonce showing off the colours of her roots and tips without the look being too full-on, but her skin looks incredibly glowing and radiant!

She adds the perfect finishing touch to her simple look- long, shiny silver earrings! The earrings add a touch of glamour to her look, and allow her to amazingly dazzle in front of the press!

Adele

Adele showed the world that she had the ‘Wow’ hair factor when she arrived at the MTV Awards sporting a big hairstyle.

The big hairstyle adds a striking touch of femininity to Adele’s chic look, and by adding a few curls- it’s the perfect finishing touch that also shapes her face!

Adele’s long lashes and bold eyeliner goes well with the clear lip-gloss that she is wearing as the colour on her face is balanced out, hence attracting heaps of attention to her big hairstyle. Her simple outfit also helps to grab out attention too!

Kim Kardashian

With lovely long sleek locks like Kim Kardashian, the possibilities of which hairstyle to flourish are endless!

Although Kim goes with a simple hairstyle, she still looks absolutely stunning. Kim’s hair worn down on both sides makes her overall look a lot sexier- it shapes her face, and goes very well with her smokey eye make-up.

Kim’s use of black eyeliner draws attention to her deep brown eyes, which also complements her glossy black hair.

Her long black hair adds a touch of sexiness, glamour, and power to her look.

Kim has always been a person to pull the smokey, sultry look at its best, and she didn’t let us down here!
