Want To Be Hardcore? Go Straight-Edge!

Edited by Kirby Marzec

Although I can certainly live without the Doo.Ri Spring 2009 collection, I’m pretty fond of the season’s hairstylist, Orlando Pita’s, hair aesthetic. To compliment the flowing garments, Pita wanted flowing hair as well, but hair with a toughness to it. To achieve this, Pita chose the always simple but oh, so edgy, slightly messy, poker straight hair: “It’s straight because straight hair always tends to look more hard-edge; wavy hair is more romantic and soft.”

Maybe I’m impartial to this look because my hair has been long, poker straight and slightly messy for as long as I can remember, but it can definitely be a fierce look. The hard, straight edges, in addition to the sleek length, make for a simple, but mesmerizing style. Though I’m long overdue for a change, I love wearing my hair like this because hey, it’s simple, it looks good with practically any outfit and it has a sexy, natural movement to it. Looks like I’m keeping it afterall!

TRENDSPARK: Grey Lips

Edited by Rebecca Alexander

It seems as though grey is the overall color of Fall 09, which is a bit drab but paired with brighter colors could be a great alternative to black. What I’m actually loving for Fall are the grey accessories and makeup choices. Doo.Ri showed an almost all grey collection, this also included grey eyes, lips, and nails. Not sure if that is a wearable look, but Chanel Iman looks awefully cute with grey lips. If anyone finds a great grey lipstick, let us know.
