Jessica Alba Goes Red


Check out Jessica Alba’s hot new look as she goes with a dark red hair color that works great with her skin tone and really accentuates her natural beauty. We love this dark red as a hair color for fall that meshes well with the changing seasons. With her hair done up in a simple bun and a basic grey blouse, we think Jessica Alba’s look really pop’s and we can’t wait to see what other trends Fall will bring!

Hair Trend: Ballerina Bun Simple UpDo

According to Elle Magazine, one of the hot new trends making its mark on the fashion and runway scene is what is called the “Ballerina Bun.” This simple yet elegant hair style is an easy way to cleanly put up your hair while complimenting your outfit. Elle suggests to achieve this look you secure tresses by “twisting and pinning them into a not too neat, not too messy bun” and then securing with hairspray. If you’d like to get more specific advice on how to obtain this look with your own hair type and style, stop by the salon to speak with one of our stylists.

Fashion Week 2009 Coming to Bellevue

Now I know we all have watched too many seasons of Project Runway and secretly desire to go to the finale at Fashion Week in New York and watch the models strut up and down the runway and see the sometimes beautiful, but always audacious, outfits that they are working. Who could turn away from these designers with all their dramatic confrontations, genius inspiration and ridiculous catch phrases?

Well we are pleased to report that no longer is a trip to New York required, you can now have the Fashion Week experience right here in the Northwest. Between September 29th and October 4th, designers, models, and paparazzi will descend upon Bellevue for our very own Fashion Week.

Events include a special early screening of “The September Issue” a new documentary on Vogue, a Nordstrom fashion show, a runway show highlighted the latest trends in Italy, and Vogue’s Front Row Fashion event. Proceeds from many of these events will go to the Boys and Girls Club of Bellevue.

Check out all of the events and more details in the Bellevue Fashion Week website.

Here Come the Hair Bows

One of the things we love so much about doing hair is the ability to express our art through our work. Unfortunately, the downside of such a versatile canvas is that sometimes you can do awful horrible things to it. One hair trend we’d very much like to see go away is the infamous hair bow. The picture above of the normally stylish Lady Gaga rocking this fashion faux pas. If we haven’t given you enough reason to stay far away from this look, here is an entire history of the hair bow by Bella Sugar. Enjoy!

Recession Fashion

Tighten your belt much?



People are creating & transforming old wardrobe finds & thrifting is back with a vengeance. Eco-friendly on a shoestring budget. Embelish, and love what you already have is the key.


Bringing your denim back to life with an inside patch, and a pocket knife slit at the knee is it! These jeans are ideal!

These T-shirts are the bomb!

If you are ever looking for a simple fun t-shirt that is locally designed, screen-printed, and made on American Apparel shirts: look no further!

One of our neighbors (Retail Therapy) is carrying reasonably priced t-shirts from www.id10tz.com!

Some even use heat sensitive thermo-chromatic ink so they change color when you get….. HOT!
