Style like Harry

I know I’m gonna lose some followers for doing this post since this is not what I usually write about (I only cover high fashion), but as a directioner and style lover, I know how important it is to “sometimes” dress like your “future husband”;)

So this entry is dedicated to Harry Styles’ necklaces (I may do another one about his many bracelets in near future). So here it goes.

So above is a very LARGE picture of Hazza, and as you can see, he’s wearing 2 very prominent neck pieces. One is a paper airplane: it’s simple, playful and suitable for everyday wear:) And there’s nowhere you can buy gem like this as on Etsy (I’m slightly obsessed with it lately).

Silver Paper Airplane Necklace, Paper Plane Necklace

This is a very close replica which you can buy here etsy.com

Here is another one, with very alike edges:)

Paper origami airplane silver pendant

Buy it here: etsy.com

Let’s move to the circle pendant. I recently bought a very similar one, but these, I think are the closest to Harry’s (look-wise). This type of pendant is very popular among celebrities like forever, but you can get some affordable ones right online!

Brass Pendant. Modern. Minimalist. Necklace

But for a bit more feminine touch, I personally recommend this one (I just bought one like this).

Reese Witherspoon's CIRCLE Necklace - 24k GOLD VERMEIL, Circle Drop Gold Necklace, Brushed Gold Coin Necklace, Sun Drop Necklace.

etsy.com

There you go! Good luck, have fun and don’t forget to get a copy of their album “Up All Night” coming out this March 13th for my US followers:)

Emma Watson’s Necklaces from Lancôme ad by gabrielle103 featuring sparkle jewelry

I know this ad has been around like forever, but now I finally make a post about it.

I absolutely adore the styling in this ad (the commercial is a bit dull though), especially the clever adjustment of the necklacements on Miss Watson with the intention to create layers.

At last, I found some alternatives to recreate this style. A thin necklace along with a round pendant can do no wrong. And with a twist, star + tassel wrapping around your neck isn’t too shabby:)

P/S: the one with pink tassel is the exact necklace Emma is wearing in the ad fro Lancôme Tresor Midnight Rose, it’s from Malababa in Spain.

Elizabeth and James sparkle jewelry, $195
Elizabeth and James chain jewelry, $175
Nugaard Ipanema Silver Leather and Metal Tassel Necklace - designer…, $98

Greek Leaf Headband

I know, I know Vic has already rocked this trend long ago…

And so did Maria Sharapova…

                  

But I have perfect reasons for making this post

Number 1: It’s eary fall, and wearing leaf on your head cannot be more cliché, BUT at the same time, it’s chic, looks good with almost everything from jeans to pencil skirt and you gotta admit, it feels good to look like a goddess some time.

Number 2: After watching The Glee Project, I realized how obsessive I am with this new-found-love.

Just look at Lindsay and McKinleigh *swoon*

(Not the best screencaps of them but STAY FOCUS ON THE HEADBAND)

From Giambattista Valli Couture FW 2011 runway:

Giambattista Valli Fall 2011 CoutureGiambattista Valli Fall 2011 Couture

Definitely an inspiration this fall.

So, here are some similar style that you can rock out:

Short Hairdo, No Worries

So last sunday, I went to the hair salon and asked for my usual hairdresser (just getting my hair cut for the new school year). Guess what, SHE QUIT. HA! C’est La Vie amigos. Well, referring to the title, you might already know what went down but what I’m going to show you in this post is exactly why you should be darn proud of your awkwardly short hair and bang caused by an amateur haidresser that you can no way sue in court.

My hair is VERY odd-looking right now since it’s not styled properly so I’m not going to use my picture. What I will do is presenting some nice pictures of hairs like mine (and yours too). INSPIRATIONAL!

*fist in the air, singing Fireworks*

Let’s begin:

Audrey Hepburn

Yes, that’s how short my bang is right NOW. Very weird at first since I’m always used to having passed-the-eyebrow kinda bang. But this look is very modern, it’s tomboy and pretty is the most unexpected way. It unintentionally showcases you beautiful eyebrows, highlights you eyes and brightens up your whole face:)

Natalie Portman

It

If your bang is simply too short then just sweep it to the side or slide it all up people. Use some hairspray to give it the structural boy-ish look:)

Carey Mulligan

Carey Mulligan

Too cute. Period.

Agyness Deyn

Have I ever stopped loving her? Er, NO. I will love her even if she’s bald!

This bang ROCKS no matter what:)

THREE CHEERS FOR SHEER!

I don’t normally write a post about sheer dress or see-through top since I’m more of a 60s pencil skirt, trench coat and mary jane wearing kinda gal. But after seeing those images of Anja Rubik walking around Paris in that dress (as seen below), I changed my mind…well, sheer isn’t for everyone but when you work it, you work it well!

The Rachel Berry Experience

Glee is reaching its third season and we just gotta admit it’s one heck of a good show. Nerds, cheerleaders, divas, gays, losers, jocks…seems like a normal high school experience but somehow we, or at least I did, fall deeply in love with the drama queen Rachel Berry.

Sweaters, school girl skirts, mary janes with knee high socks and a whole lotta personality. That’s the formula.

This is basically how to get the “neglected superstar” look:
