4 EASY UP-DOS TO BEAT THE HEAT

4 EASY UP-DOS TO BEAT THE HEAT

Sure, long hair is gorgeous and great, but what do you do with it when summer heat is in full force? Take a cue from the A-list and make it through the rest of summer without a sweat—or at least without it showing. Here are 4 of our favorite up-dos to keep your cool and still look as gorg as ever. What other tips do you have for staying chic in the heat?   1) Jessica Alba gives her classic low bun a sweet update with a lightly curled side-swiped bang. Romantic, relaxed but chic enough to make an entrance. (2) We love the contrast of Kate Bosworth’s casual, lightly twisted bun with the smooth and slicked back bouffant and bang—uncomplicated and quite stunning. 3) Sure the high bun is an always-returning classic, but this season we’ve especially loved the up-there update of wearing it even higher on the head. Olivia Palermo? Case in point. Decidely sophisitcated, and great for on-the-go, because it only takes some bobby-pins and a few seconds.

4) Zoe Saldana brings the milkmaid braid to new heights of gorgeousness by pulling out some loose pieces at the front with a part in the middle. A style that normally feels casual looks like red carpet perfection paired with dressy lace and a bright red lip.
