Beautytrend FW2011: in the middle
A trend you can’t miss this season: the middle parting. After seasons of no show, this classic hairdo is back again. And rightly so. It’s simple, clean and always good to create either a casual chic or a classic look.
We’ve seen different versions at the shows. Like the ultra tight version, where no hair is allowed to stick out. Keep it all behind the ears and wear it in a tight knot or a chic ponytail low in the neck. This is also a good way to emphasize the shape of your face. The other version is more casual, keeping it loose and frisky. So if you’re not feeling so much for the big and fussy hair for December, this look might be a good option.
Beautytrend FW2011: Roaring Red
Nothing’s more sexy, feminine and powerful than a woman with beautiful red lips and the designers know it.
The classic red lipstick is a huge trend this season. Between all the nude looks, we saw many pouts in different shades of red: rust, raspberry, cherry, scarlet, burgundy, carmine, fuchsia, wine and ultra pared- down red. And from very shimmery to really matte.
There’s a lot to choose from, but finding the right one is not so easy. It’s always good to pick one that matches your hair color and skin tone. If you have a lighter skin tone, go for a red with a blue (cold) undertone, like fire red. When you have a darker skin, the orange- based (warm) shades will do well on you, like burgundy or deep red. Check out the photo’s to see all the different options…

Edith & Ella Backstage at AIFW SS2012
The backstage-setting at Edith & Ella was as colorful as the show. Hair and beauty reminded us of the good old Brigitte Bardot-days, French, feminie and a bit naughty.
