I think it is pretty obvious that I am obsessed with hair, judging from how much time I spend on it. A good hairstyle and a well made-up face dresses up a plain outfit more than any single accessory can ever hope to do. It’s a personal pet peeve of mine to see someone with an immaculate outfit with lank and greasy hair – why bother putting in so much effort to dress nicely, only to neglect your personal appearance? To me that’s akin to wearing a chanel suit set with slippers.

That said, here are some of the hairstyles I am eager to try out this summer.

Loose waves ala Chloe Fall 2010. Perfect with a loose summery dress, and it wouldn’t look the least bit out of place in the Fall as well.

Marcel waves inspired by Dior. I have always wanted to try 1920′s inspired finger waves, but they are so hard to style! I think nothing channels elegance and timelessness like this hairstyle does. I wish I could turn back time and go to prom with perfect marcel waves.

I am sure I am not the only person that has to deal with frizzy hair during summer time. Take a cue from Proenza Schouler and make it work to your advantage!

A tousled updo like Chanel’s is elegant and casual at the same time. I prefer to do my hair up in summer – it helps me cool down so much, and you don’t have worry about hair plastering to your neck in this humid weather. Gross.

Updos are perfect for drawing attention to hair accessories too!

Alexander Wang’s braids could never get old. I truly intend on trying this out soon – it’s been long enough!

I would rather kill myself and my cat before watching The Hills, but I can’t ignore Lauren Conrad and her immaculate hair. Sure, it most likely takes a team of stylists and the best extensions money can buy to have hair like hers, but I can dream, right?

Not even gonna lie- I would do anything to have hair like hers. It’s pretty much perfect.

Who are your hairspirations? Do you think it’s okay to blog about hair and makeup, or should we just stick to clothes?

As if the star-studded crew of Tim Burton’s “Alice in Wonderland” hasn’t generated enough hype already, designers Ann Demeulemeester, Nicholas Kirkwood, Charles Anastase, Maison Martin Margiela, Haider Ackermann and Chloé has come together to create their own interpretations of this classic story. This is almost too much of a good thing.

First up is this stunner of a shoe by Nicholas Kirkwood, for the March Hare. I am absolutely loving the checkered heels and the pocket watch. The minature teapots and cups hanging on the chain are just darling.

I agree with Charles Anastase that the Walt Disney interpretation of the dress is simply too boring. She is supposed to be in Wonderland for chrissake. This deconstructed asymmetrical gown manages to convey the madness of the world that Alice is in, but at the same time preserves a distinct elegance. I love the draping on the dress, and even the dusky blue in all my colour prejudices.

Chloe delivers a clean and feminine design in contrast to Anastase’s deconstructed dress. I think that while it is a pretty, wearable dress, Chloe might have played it a tad too safe with this design when they are given a valid reason to just go crazy on it.

I am usually a huge fan of Haider Ackerman, but I am a little on the fence with this dress. I love the top, but the bottom part of the dress and the fabric choice leaves much to be desired. Here’s to hoping it looks better worn, than resembling a romper out of the 80′s on the mannequin.

Maison Martin Margiela: Synonymous with romance and glamour. And I am not disappointed with their delivery of this dress. I love how they deconstructed the dress and assembled it upside down, placing the boning on the sleeves.

I am not sure who Ann Demeulemeester is trying to portray here, but I suspect the March Hare from the vest and the monochromatic scheme. I don’t think much needs to be said for this piece, the cutouts at the hem are nothing less than ingenious, and the drape of the top is simply to die for.
