    • Get the Look: Rose Byrne's High Volume Bun

      Here in New York, we have been suffering from steaming hot days, making us dread even the thought of taking out the straightener or curling iron. So we've decided to play with some updos this week, starting with Rose Byrne's high volume bun that she wore at the Damages premiere last week. Let's enjoy the fact that the heat is inspiring us to do something other than eating ice cream on the couch with Friends reruns.

      10 Summer Hairstyles To Beat The Heat

      Step 1: John Frieda International Creative Consultant Harry Josh started by applying John Frieda Frizz-Ease Serum Original Formula ($7, Drugstore.com) to soaking wet hair to fight frizz. And with heat like this, we are gonna need it!

      Step 2: To get that sleek, shiny finish, Harry started blowing out Rose's hair in sections with a round, boar-bristle brush. We love Chi Ceramic Round Boar Brush ($11.99, Thebeautyplace.com)

      Step 3: After finishing with the blowout, he applied John Frieda

    • Get the Look: Emma Stone's Daytime Cat Eye

      Emma Stone showed up at the Los Angeles premiere of The Amazing Spider-Man looking flawless, as usual. What impressed us most about her look was her eye makeup. While the cat eye look is sometimes a bit too heavy for us to even consider wearing in the daytime, her's was actually pretty subtle and elegant. Chanel celebrity makeup artist Rachel Goodwin gave us the steps for getting the same look at home.

      Step 1: Sweep a light colored cream eyeshadow across the lids, like Chanel Illusion D'ombre in Fantasme ($36, Chanel.com). This light color will nicely contrast the eyeliner, making it suitable for daytime wear.

      Step 2: Use a liquid liner, like Revlon ColorStay Creme Gel Eye Liner in Black ($8.99, Revlon.com), to create your cat eye. Begin at the inside of the eyelid and drag the applicator all the way across the lid to the outside of the eye. When you get to the outside of the eye, move the applicator

    • Are Face Oils the New Fountain of Youth?

      We all know about the basic skincare essentials every woman should have: a good gentle cleanser, an antioxidant rich day cream with SPF 15 (or higher) and a skin-repairing night cream. (I prefer ones with retinol.) But in the past few months, at least a dozen new face oils--such as coconut oil, chia seed oil, argan oil, avocado oil...the list goes on!--have crossed my desk, all looking quite exotic and touting to boost glow and improve overall skin health. Always in search for the new fountain of youth, I've been experimenting with quite a few of them, and while I've come to love them, I was still confused about the best way to work them into my regimen, and if they are something I should be telling everyone else to start using, too. I dialed up a few experts, and here's what I found out:

    • The Worst Wet Hair Look We've Ever Seen

      Don't take this the wrong way. I love Shailene Woodley. She is an amazing actress and looked absolutely flawless in The Descendants. But that's the problem. We're now seeing her beauty go to waste. She continues to hide her killer body time and time again on the red carpet. For the screening of Red Lights in New York last week, she hid her slim figure in an overbearing plaid button-down that would have been too big on one-time co-star George Clooney.

      But because we're a beauty site, what we really want to talk about is that hair. The wet hair look is hot, but this definitely is not. Although the trend is supposed to appear casual, we admit it does require a little work to pull it off. If Shailene wanted to wear the wet hair trend right, all she had to do was look at Jenna Dewan and Cody Horn, who both showed up to the Magic Mike premiere looking sleek and sexy.

    • Kristen Stewart and the Worst Wedding Attire. Ever

      Is it just me, or has anyone else had enough of Kristen Stewart? Don't get me wrong; I'm all about a healthy Team Edward vs. Jacob debate, but that's about as far as my interest in K-Stew goes. Acting aside, her oh-so laid-back attire just rubs me the wrong way. So when I spotted this image of the Twilight actress on Instagram, wearing jeans to a friend's wedding, I couldn't help but wonder: Has she taken casual wear too far?

      I guess I'm old fashioned that way; I still think flip-flops are inappropriate at work and that black should never be worn to a wedding. Nevertheless, K-Stew, who attended the soiree with beau Robert Pattinson, considered herself cool enough to pull off jeans, a boring black tank and a blazer to her friend's big day. Oh, and you can see her bra.

      Given Kristen's fashion blunder, and that it's wedding season, we decided to create a list of wedding faux pas - some debatable, some

      Beyonce1. Beyonce
      We love when Beyonce goes with her natural curls. The key to keeping those lustrous locks in place all day is a strong cream gel, such as Garnier Fructis Style Curl Sculpting Cream Gel ($4.50, Drugstore.com). And most importantly, it keeps summer frizz at bay.

      Taylor Swift
      2. Taylor Swift
      Taylor sported her natural curls, but kept control with a low side ponytail and shorter curls. Flowing curls on her forehead created a soft look. Use a light hold hairspray, such as Phyto Phytolaque Soie Light Hold Hair Spray ($32, Ulta.com), to keep hair in place and reduce frizz.

      3. Christina Hendricks
      Not only is Christina Hendricks a bombshell on Mad Men, but she rocks the retro look off-screen as well. The actress went with a curly faux bob on the red carpet, and we're in awe. To recreate, first curl your hair and tie with an elastic at the very end of the strands. Roll hair under the elastic and tuck toward the nape of the neck. Make sure to spread the

      Ke$ha has just added a new permanent accessory to the inside of her lip.

      If a half-shaven head and glued-on studs weren't enough to set the pop star's look apart, her new tattoo certainly will. Ke$ha showed off her latest ink, which says "Suck It," via her Twitter account.

    • An Ode to Nora Ephron & the Greatest Hair Makeover

      Like most people, I was extremely saddened to hear that Nora Ephron, the woman who brought us romantic comedies like When Harry Met Sally and You've Got Mail, passed away yesterday. While it was a lesser known hit of hers, Hanging Up was my go-to film during my middle school years, so I'm a big Nora fan.

      I wanted to find the right way to comment on her achievements without doing a run-through of her filmography, since we aren't an entertainment site (though I hope we are entertaining). Then I realized that Nora left a big footprint in the beauty world through her continued use of leading lady Meg Ryan. Who better represents the power of a haircut?

      I don't know about you, but my mom adored Meg Ryan. Every time the actress showed off a new cut, my mom loved her more. On more than one occasion, a photo of Meg went along with my mom to the hairstylist to serve as hairspiration.

      Not only is her hair now a subtle red, but it's super long, most likely with a little help from extensions. While she usually wears it in soft curls, it was stick straight at the Hotel Transylvania press event.
