Stenciling

Spotted on the catwalk for Betsey Johnson, this gorgeous stenciled lace look created by Redken’s leading stylist Peter Gray.

Peter created this gorgeous look by using black wigs, cut into bobs. They were influenced by Uma Thurman in Pulp Fiction as well as the Sassoon bobs and Cleopatra fringes, the lace effect was added because Peter thought a simple bob shape was simply not ‘Betsey’ enough and for those of you who know Betsey we know he was right. This stunning lace look made it all the more special. Gray used lace as the stencil and while it was wrapped around the head, he used color spray to create the look.

 

The hair/wigs had to be blow dried and flat ironed very straight first as the stenciling effect doesn’t show well on textured hair.

My Pick..

I picked this hairstyle from an ad for nails, mainly because of it being a very classic one length basic bob. This picture shows that no matter how simple the haircut/style is, the total look can still be of one that is hip, classic and non-mumsy as long as the rest of your look/outfit looks cool!
So all you women out there who are afraid to end up looking mumsy with a basic bob,  you should have a think about your total look and not just the hair : )

My Pick because I like the way the hair has been set, I can only guess that the style has been set using rollers or irons. Starting the curls further down from the head to give it a flatter look at the crown working into the definite curls at the middle length and ends. Love the bushiness of it, sorry I cant remember which ad campaign this was from but well done to the stylist.

My Picks ~ Asian Models Series-3

Some fabulous shots and a brilliant fashion spread by Photographer Paolo Roversi for Vogue Korea.
Models – Hyun Yi Lee, Han Hye Jin, Hye Jung Lee.
I simply love the styling and hair on these pictures, even though two have the Tao Okomoto bowl cut, it’s a great look on Asian hair. My favorite photo being the one with the colorful hat, well done guys!

Inspired by a Handbag Ad..

After gorging myself with sausage rolls and Cumberland sausages nearly every day on my trip to the UK, I came across this Ad for a handbag, (altho sorry, I can’t remember which make : { ) but anyway it gave me a lot of inspiration… this is what I’m aiming for before my Hawaii trip….. : O

(Sorry this is not about the bag itself so I cut it off the picture : / )

My Picks ~ Asian Models Series-2

Paolo Roversi must be one lucky guy!! This photographer gets to shoot these up and coming gorgeous Asian models both for China Vogue as well as Korea Vogue (another post)  This one was shot for the cover of Vogue China:
vogue Paolo Roversi
It just amazes me how similar they look when they have been styled the same, both in the first picture and the punk rock Steven Meisal shoot we showed. at least with the 2nd picture, the hair makes the features of each girl stand out more.
Inside this issue is an article  called Black on Black, Photographs were taken by Peter Lindbergh and styled by Nicoletta Santoro. I Love this next picture of Liu Wen, Tao Okomoto and Ming Xi,  and I  love the hair being casually wrapped and of course Tao’s bowl cut, which makes her so distinct.
My pick - Vogue China Liu Wen, Toa, Ming Xi

My Pick ~ Asia Chow

blog-asia-chow-01 wmag

Cute and gorgeous, showing the most simple hairstyle but also showing us that simple can be very hip, if all is else matches..  Asia Chow is the daughter of restaurateur Michael Chow and his third wife Eva Chun.

Yeah, I got abit confused for  sec too, I thought it was China Chow, had to look them up, China is also Michael Chows daughter but to his second wife Tina Chow. Should’ve guessed there was a connection really, I mean, Asia and China?

My Picks ~ Asian Models Series-1

There’s been so many articles about the new (not so new now)  crop of  upcoming supermodels from China, Japan and Korea lately that I wanted to show them ALL to you.. so here is my first post, taken from Vogue (last year, sorry I’m abit behind)  who has featured these girls so much, The photographer here was Steven Meisal. The shoot was styled by Grace Coddington and the hair was dressed into modern punk rock styles to contrast with the ball gowns and amazingly enough, I have looked so hard to see who did the wonderful hair dressing for this shoot and could not find anything online, so I’m very sorry to the hairstylist who should’ve got full credit for this.
My Picks 2 Vogue Dec 2010
My picks
The girls include: Liu Wen, Tao Okamoto, Du Juan, Bonnie Chen, Hyoni Kong, Lee Hyun Yi, Lily Zhi and So Young Kong.
I have to admit, even with my experienced Asian eyes, even though I think the spread is fabulous, the way they have been styled makes it really difficult to distinguish between one fine boned girl to another, making me think that the old sayin’ ‘All Asians look alike’ could well be true here.. Eek sorry!
