Ban.do: The new wave in hair fashion

Filed under: Accessories, Product Reviews, Must Haves, Hair Cut and Style

Check out the hottest hair trend for this season!This fall, you're probably gonna start putting pretty stuff in your hair and you're probably gonna like it. Don't you just love these? We want them all!

Fascinators have been quietly creeping onto the scene, but if you want a look that really says "class" without any danger of it saying "junior prom," visit Ban.do.

Ban.do makes gorgeous hair pieces like the ones you see here, and I took one out for a test drive to see if I felt weird or over-the-top wearing a giant feather in my hair. Check it out in the gallery below.

Honestly, these are the most sophisticated hair pieces I have ever seen. They are cool, creative, and not one of them looks like it came from Claire's. Bandos cost a pretty penny, from about $80-$200, but you're not going to find anything better.

The designers are Jen and Jamie, two L.A. stylists who launched Ban.Do about two months ago. They aren't retailing anywhere yet, so be sure to visit their website, shopbando.com. They have the potential to be big, and you have the potential to be the first one of your friends to pick up on this fall's fun and glamorous hair trend.

From red carpet to your closet: Penelope Cruz at the 2008 Oscars

Filed under: Clothing, Celebrities with Style, Red Carpet Trends




Penelope Cruz has no problem taking risks with fashion, and often, for her, that means playing with a variety of fabrics. This year's Oscars gown was no exception -- she had a plethora of feathers adorning her gown, and managed to make it work.

Now, I'm not about to recommend you start sporting a feather boa. In fact, I'm telling you straight up -- don't do it. However, there are lessons to be learned from P. Cruz's ensemble -- mere mortals can experiment with a variety of fabrics and adornments, especially when it's for a special occasion.

Feathered fashions will have you flying

Filed under: Runway Trends, Accessories, Clothing, Dresses

Feathered fashions style.comFur is out.

Feathers are in.

This Fall, the runways are ready to take flight with all of their feathery looks. Maybe birds are pissing off fashion designers as much as they are pissing me off, because it seems they have decided to take action by plucking those suckers bald and applying their pretty little feathers to your clothes. Whether it is a feathered details in your hair (as seen in Nina Ricci's runway show) or the off -the-shoulder feathery mini dress as pictured here by Ohne Titel; feathers are hot.

Feathered frocks are also not very practical to wear in your everyday life, so if you like the look you are going to have to work it in subtly (and hope your co-workers aren't allergic). Try working in feather details to your headbands or even a small amount of feather trim to the bottom of a dress or top. As this look "takes flight" retailers will find a way to work synthetic feathers into your garments in a way that won't have you looking like Big Bird.
