Reese's 1940s Hairstyle

She is seen here at the "Four Christmases" World Premiere wearing a black strapless number. Her lovely blonde locks are mid length with a deep side part that swoops her bangs over the forehead with a deliberate bend that gives way to gentle waves and end in a tighter curl at the bottom. The other side tucked behind one ear.

You can take a look at Lauren Bacall to see the striking similarities. The 1940's era is becoming more and more popular for hairstyle ideas and fashion.

Sometimes something simple is the best look and Hayden Panettiere seems to pull this off without a hitch.

This young lady has very simple lines here with her great cut that has graduated lengths around the face, her short form fitting blue dress, and black tall pumps. What a great way to show off her new clutch bag by Dooney and Bourke. No fuss locks and attire is a sure fire way to showcase the accessories.

Nicole Richie is sporting a long and layered retro hairstyle that would be a smash hit for a holiday party if you prefer to wear your locks down instead of up in traditional fashion.

This socialite is seen here at the 2008 UNICEF Snowflake Lighting on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills wearing a royal blue dress with plunging neckline and unusual necklace. With Christmas and New Years just around the corner, you may be looking for fashion and hair ideas for special events. Classic updos may not be what you had in mind this year, so this is a great up to date fashionable option that may work for you. It is highly possible that she is using permanent or clip in extensions to get the look. These little styling aids can really increase length and volume to help get a hot feathered mane like this one. Finger scrunching while drying with a diffuser can help with soft loose waves and allow you to coax the strands into place. A curling iron held vertically can be the touch tool of choice.

The key here is get a great cut by a professional stylist and then the strands should just fall into place and give the look of movement.

Her big hoop earrings are clearly visible and add a punch factor. A+++
