This one by Pixie Lott is super cute and feminine with a shoulder length, soft curls, and side swept bangs.

Her warm yellow blonde tresses are a bit tousled looking but still this is a very neat and well kept hairstyle to go along with her blue jacket and white dress. The layers add depth and allow the curls to bounce in different directions giving the style the look of movement. The cut does not have a defined part. The bangs are directed forward and then brushed to the side as they hit the eyebrow.

Here is another photo taken at the Photocall to Launch the Galaxy S III Smartphone at the Samsung Store at Westfield Stratford City on May 30, 2012. This one shows the whole red, white, and blue outfit of hers complete with very tall open toe red high heels. This one might be a fun one for a 4th of July party or maybe you just want to be patriotic in the USA.

Women in the 1950's wore conservative dresses and skirts, fairly short and curly hair, and pumps to work.

All of these women have short brunette hair. The sides are kept shorter and the ears are exposed.  The woman on the left has a straight style in a pixie cut. Her bangs are short and full. Two women are wearing black framed cat eye glasses. Their dresses are plain and simple for the most part except for the one on the right side and she has a patterned print. The length of their dresses is just past the knee. Pumps with heels were standard. The gentleman who is sitting on the left is wearing a suit and bow tie.

This photograph was taken in Spokane, WA in 1955 at the telephone company for some sort of promotional reason.

This is a great updo to wear with a short and sassy party dress like Kelly Brook at Arqiva British Academy Television Awards 2012.

Kelly Brook

She has dark brown hair with lighter brown highlights. The strands are pulled straight back for a bang-less look and they are secured at the top of the crown. The bun is big, messy, and bouffant-ish for a retro 60's appeal but with an edgy twist. If one was missing the long hair needed to make this one work, then investing in a hair piece to plop on top and pin into place. Her party dress is full of black lace over pale pink fabric. It is strapless and fitted down just past the waist with a ruffle skirt that hits above the knees. She is carrying a trendy blue clutch!

When you have dark hair like this young man, it makes it easy to sport a closely shaved style and still maintain an attractive look. The addition of unshaven face is part of the whole package. This Dancing with the Stars favorite is definitely one to watch.

She has a side part and is bang-less with a braid that starts at the part and circles around to the back where there is a simple bun as shown in the picture below of the back view.

The strands are twisted into a neat little bun that sits at the nape of the neck. She has fringe left out on each side that softens the look and makes it more feminine.

This third picture shows a side view as to how the braid is brought into the style. Her hair color is a subtle berry brunette shade. She has big round disk earrings that make a bold statement with turquoise stones set inside the brass colored metal. She is wearing a long sleeve black dress with a plunging neckline.

This style is one to ponder for any special event.
