Matte Finishes, Loose Curls, and Messy Braids

Hey Girls, I know I told you about Fall 2010 Fashion trends allready, but this blog is going to be about the small stuff. You know, the details that can make or break a outfit you worked all afternoon to put together! In my opinion nicely manicured nails-and I don't mean you have to go to the salon once a week, but let there be no dirt under your nails,keep them filed and use hand cream- can make even a sweatsuit seem more put together. Also, I don't know of a single girl who has never had a bad hair day...we all do. But hopefully in this you will read of the up and comming hair & nail trends expected to arrive this Fall!

First things First: Hair

I have been doing my research and the trends I have seen on the runways are not very attractive and in most cases not street worthy ( not street worthy-by that I mean what might look okay on the runway but if you wore it to school...lets just say you would get some funny looks). Although, one thing I have noticed is that braids are still around. I love this trend. Because if your hair is long enough you can wear it in a cute loose side braid (Also called a Bohemian Braid). Or my favorite are the "Hippie" braids. I wear hippie braids sometimes to work when I have a bad hair day because for some reason they work good no matter what your hair decides to do that day! All Hippie braids are, are the small braids you form on each side of your head and gently pull together in the back in a clear hair tie.

Also, I know we have all grown to love the lose curls look, and thankfully the naturally chic trend is back this Fall!

Matte Finishes!

Okay, Okay, I honestly and not a huge fan on this trend, but I thought you ought to know. Matte Finishes on nails are apparenly going to be a hot nail polish trend. Matte Finishes are not shing like you are normally use to seeing and instead have a dull finish. They are pretty cute on other people, but I believe I will be sticking to the shiny gloss of my favorite OPI's.
