Thakoon Fall 2011 Beauty Report

I'm loving the Masai-inspired look from Thakoon, where strips of fabric from hats were woven through models' hair.

Like Honor's Fall 2011 look, this one used Nars blushes (Taj Mahal, Desire, and Exhibit A) for a rich red appearance. View 5 Photos › Photo 1 Photo Read more

While most runway looks can be adapted for everyday wear, sometimes catwalk hair and makeup are a tad too avant-garde for the mainstream. Such was not the case at Jill Stuart's Spring 2012 show. Wearing floaty pastel frocks, models were given bohemian waves and washes of pink or orange lip color for a truly wearable look that's easy to try at home. For the hair, Kerastase's Odile Gilbert created Read more
