Bangs
Bangs are big this season and this tress trend is showing no sign of slowing down. If you're considering the look, use these celebrities as inspiration: sleek and sexy like Tyra Banks, long and choppy like Reese Witherspoon, an updated pageboy like Katie Holmes' and everything in between. First up? British beauty Kate Beckinsale made an appearance at the Calvin Klein Fall 2009 show with these blunt bangs added to her signature long coif.
