Did you even recognize her?! For those of you who are avid fans of the Harry Potter series, take a look at the new Emma Watson (who plays Hermione) who was out and about in London yesterday:
She told her fans via Facebook, saying, “Cut my hair off a few days ago… Feels incredible. I love it. I’ve wanted to do this for years and years; it’s the most liberating thing ever.”
What do you guys think of her new ‘do? I think the pixie cut suits her!

I received a tweet @myfashioncents last week asking how to update hairstyles come fall – my response was to make sure you trim any dead, sun-damaged ends, do a deep conditioning treatment and use a glaze to enhance faded color (this works on even non-processed hair!). In addition to taking care of your strands, try out one of these five hot new hair ideas!

Messy side braid:

There were a number of hair-related blog post suggestions left in the comments over the last few days and I have spent a considerable amount of time thinking about how to answer all of you! In regards to hair style, cut, color and length – that is a very personal choice! I enjoy having my hair long with loose waves:
If you’re having a hard time deciding on what your true hair personality is, give InStyle’s Virtual Makeover a try!

If anyone ever told you that you can’t wear red lipstick because you’re a redhead, don’t listen! It’s all about confidence :) You can go bold and sport a fire engine red lip – or try a subtle berry color, like Nicole Kidman did over the weekend at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association lunch:
Motives Lipstick in Raspberry Burst will give you the same rich color as Nicole:
I think the two variations of red look gorgeous together! What do you think?
Would you wear red lipstick with red locks?

Katie Holmes is set to play Jackie Kennedy in the History Channel’s new miniseries The Kennedys, which debuts sometime next year. She seems to be doing a great job of living up to the fashion icon’s legacy with shift dresses, clean lines and that classic bob. Here’s a sneak peek:
What do you think? Does she look like Jackie O?

According to the runway, once summer comes to a close (Labor Day is slowly creeping up on us), we will be leaving our loose, beachy hair behind. This fall has been deemed the season for sleek, straight strands and thick, strong brows a la J. Mendel and Anna Sui:
Shiny hair and filled-in eyebrows simply enhance your own natural beauty. My dear friend and celebrity hair guru, Ken Paves, has two amazing products that can help you achieve the simple hairstyle:

And to give yourself healthy-looking brows, use the Motives Brow Kit or Eyebrow Pencils:

What do you think of these looks?

Katherine Heigl sure has been getting a lot of bad press this week for this bouffant she wore while promoting her new film The Killers. Her over-sprayed, structured 80s hairstyle is a definite red carpet don’t… at least for someone Katherine’s age! I miss her soft, pretty blonde hair…
Yay or nay?

This pink lip color is such a pretty, unexpected twist on tomboy Jessica Biel. She looked absolutely beautiful at the premiere of The A-Team in Hollywood – not only was her makeup fresh and fun, but I am loving her relaxed, bedhead hair!
To get hair like Jessica’s, simply create a middle part and blow dry haphazardly with a round brush. Then work some texturizing hair product around the ends to create that piecey effect.
Motives Rich Formula Lipstick in Pink Rose $14
Dabbing on the lip color with tip of your finger will help you recreate the look of soft lips. You don’t want to overdo it with the pigment or hard edges!
