TREND ALERT: TWO-TEXTURED HAIR

If you're constantly trying to decide between wavy or straight hair, you're in luck. Lately, scores of famous faces have been stepping out with hair that straddles the texture line: straight, sleek hair on top slowly meandering into soft waves. Mindy Kaling, Keke Palmer, and Sophia Bush are all fans of this hybrid style. It's great for everyday wear, but can also be amped up for a glamorous, formal event.
To get this easy, texture-heavy look, mist your hair with a thermal spray such as Dove Thermal Replenishment Spray  and then dry it with a round brush. Take a flat iron and smooth it over the top portion of your hair, from about your roots to the bottom of your ears. To achieve the waves, you can either curl your hair with your flat iron or use a 1.5-inch curling iron on just the ends. Keep the look in place with a good holding hair spray, and you'll never have to choose between two textures again.

OUTFIT OF THE DAY


Fashion Inspiration: Alison DiLaurentis from Pretty Little Liars

Though she’s not in every episode, when Ali does appear on the show – whether in a flashback scene or an eerie ghost-like encounter with one of the girls – she always looks absolutely flawless. Her style is girly with a bit of an edge. She loves wearing dresses and blouses with pumps or pretty wedges, and many of these pieces feature floral prints and shades of pink. But like her personality, her wardrobe isn’t strictly sweet.

Pretty Little Liar

Capture Ali’s pretty style with a lace-accented dress and crochet wedges, then add a tiered statement necklace for a trendy aesthetic. On the show, Ali gave Spencer, Hanna, Aria, and Emily friendship bracelets to match her own, so tie on a few bracelets similar to theirs to complete the outfit!

Secrets

It’s no secret that Ali had major style! For this look, start by pairing a bright pink ruffle blouse with dark wash jeggings. Ballet flats with padlock charms pay tribute to Ali’s obsession with locks and keys, while a bow necklace adds a girly flair to finish the look.


Kiss And Tell

For a slightly edgier look inspired by Ali, wear a strapless lace dress under a faux leather moto jacket. Mary Jane pumps give off a feminine vibe, and flirty “Kiss Me” earrings add a fun touch. Add a stacked chain and rhinestone bracelet for a look that’s girly yet a little bit tough.
