CELEBRITY, MEDIUM, TRENDING, TRENDING

Kelly+Osbourne+Updos+Beehive+VJ1Z8OkIaO4l

Famous for her lavender hair color, Kelly Osbourne’s signature hairstyle has helped her become an icon of fashion. So in the year when the sixties aesthetic returns to the vanguard, it’s no surprise to see her wearing one of the most famous styles of that time: The Beehive. Kind of a hybrid between the Beatles’ bowl-cut bangs and Jackie O’s eternally elegant bouffant, Kelly’s modern version is more twisted and tousled than the classic, which, combined with the lavender locks, bathes her style in effortless modernity. The Beehive requires some work at the vanity table, but get it done and you are sure to be noticed. Learn how via the style notes.

Pastel-gelato colors are great for spring and summer as they are the perfect way to update a blonde look, depending on your mood, favorite color, or wardrobe. The benefit with these shades is that they wash out easily, which means you can experiment with a rainbow of effects. Although this florid trend seemed to peak last summer, the reemergence of sunshine –– at least here in New York –– has brought a new wave of sugar-coats to the streets. These dusty interpretations still feel chic, and offer doll-like innocence and allure. For tips on attaining tints like this, click style notes.

A Brighter Blue

We love the smoky pale tones that have popped up this season. By reducing vibrancy, frosted pastels transition summer gelato shades perfectly into cold weather hues. Dusky colors look great with muted knits and pale skin, but for a special night out, a rainy day, or simply a change of pace, bright tips provide a stunning contrast to silvery shades. The cobalt ends pictured here give muted cerulean new life, creating a subtle tonal contrast that maximizes the impact of both tones. To get the look in a few simple steps, click style notes.
