BEAUTY BAR: In All The Right Places

August 13th, 2015 at 2:00am

On this Thursday, I found it appropriate to show-off a Fashionista with her throwback fashion sense. To be honest, she makes this outfit look easy. However, I can say that for me, shopping for vintage clothing can be one of the most frustrating and time consuming processes. When it works, as it does for her, watch out world because it’s worth the time! Everyone should go vintage shopping, garage sale picking or rummage through a parent or guardian’s closet at least once in their lifetime.

It is absolutely necessary when you are going to give a vintage outfit a try, you should have the right hair and makeup to complement your look. This Fashionista did an amazing job of replicating a ‘50s hairstyle with the right placement of bobby pins, some teasing and soft curls. Using bobby pins this summer has become a major trend. It is simple to get so many different looks by using the help of some small metal pins.

What’s on the BEAUTY BAR: Some people say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. To re-create this vintage look you need bobby pins, killer lipstick and a throwback outfit that shows your inner ‘50s side. To specifically copy the hairstyle, you need about four to six pins. Then pull back hair from one side of your hairline and tuck it above your ear. Bobby pin that piece of hair to your head and let hair from the back fall over the pins. Finish it off by wrapping larger chunks of hair over a one-inch curling iron barrel. And that, my friend, is how you get this look!
