I did a double-take when I first saw Christina Ricci's red-carpet look from the recent Spike TV Scream Awards. At first, I thought her hair was pulled back into an updo, giving the effect of short hair. But upon further inspection , it appears that...
Paris Fashion Week kicked off yesterday and even though I'm (sadly) not there, I'm going to pore over the previous day's best beauty looks and bring you my favorite pick each day. First up: Rochas, who showcased a sort of nerdgirl-expat-on...
I only had to see one close-up image from Dolce and Gabbana show (held yesterday in Milan) to know that it would be, hands-down, my favorite beauty look from all the shows we've seen so far. Why? Not only is it totally pretty, it's also very wearable...
It was a big day in Milan yesterday, as designers such as Gucci, Pucci and Bottega Veneta showed their spring collections. But all was quiet on the beauty front, with many designers favoring minimal, almost makeup-free looks (the exception being Bottega...
Call it "fantasy hair": the look for locks at Jason Wu's runway show was all about intricate updos festooned with waves of black tulle and gorgeous, ladylike headpieces. In a perfect world, this would be my everyday hair look (if I were...
I love how, in the beauty world, even something as seemingly mundane as shampoo can almost blind you with its science. Consider, if you will, Redken's Color Extend Shampoo and Conditioner , which boasts such complex haircare technology, you'd...
Like the rest of North America, I've become rather smitten with Alexa Chung and her cool-girl style. But what is it, beyond the clothes, that lends her that laissez-faire chic vibe? I think I've figured it out: it's all in that unwashed, unruly...
While it seemed like summer had mysteriously gone missing for the last couple of months, Mother Nature has apparently woken up to that fact and has suddenly deemed August its proper kick-off month. So now, it's full steam ahead in the city of Toronto...
I never thought I'd see the day when I'd actually enjoy putting oil in my hair. As a fine-haired lass, the thought of putting anything with the merest hint of oil usually sends me running for the hills. But that was before I met Moroccanoil ....
Have you been to the haircare aisle at your local drugstore lately? Hair products are multiplying like tribbles , (those lovable little furry creatures that gave Captain Kirk a run for his money on Star Trek ), with new products appearing every day, all...
In the summertime, I get a bit laissez-faire with my hair. My philosophy: why go through the whole blowdry smooth/flat-iron process when humid, tropical-like conditions will put the frizz-kibosh on that business in an instant? Plus, who wants to be stuck...
Hairspray has often been associated with a plethora of hair "dont's"; just witness the hair crimes committed in the '80s, where the credo seemed to be "the higher the hair, the closer to God." Yes, I'm talking to you, Pia...
In the early '90s, I was a big Twin Peaks /David Lynch fan. The music, quirky characters and black humor of this cult show were like nothing else on TV, or anywhere else for that matter. And one of my favorite characters was Audrey Horne (played by...
The story of uber-model Linda Evangelista is legend: she was a semi-successful model with long hair, but it wasn't until she cut her hair into a boyish crop that she became a household name. Her story immediately came to mind when I beheld, in the...
Contrary to popular belief, short hair doesn't have to make you look older. Just witness the cropped 'do Ginnifer Goodwin debuted at the Camilla and Marc Dinner recently. It's a sexy little style that actually makes her look a few years younger...
