Holiday hair

Whoa! I literally gasped when I saw this fiery red side chignon. The instructions are here, and her tomato red lipstick is Clinique's Red Red Red. Even if you wore a black turtleneck and jeans, you'd be the most glamorous girl at the party.

  6. okay so then its not just me! I have seen such beautiful redheads all over the place: magazines, street style blogs and the other day when I literally stopped on the street to stare at a woman with the most beautiful red hair I've ever seen. Her confident stride was pretty impressive too.

    Though I normally wear my hair down, I'm dying to try some dramatic updo. I was thinking maybe something a little Bridget Bardot, but this side chignon is quite glamorous ....now I just need somewhere to wear it!

  7. my (gorgeous) red-headed friend was just lamenting to me the other day how she was afraid to wear red lipstick. pshaw! I'm showing her these asap. red heads + red lips= total knockout

  18. I LOVE that hair style. I have a serious bobby pin problem, and they are scattered around my apartment at all times. It is super easy to pull off - I just did a rough version without a mirror.

    Thanks for sharing, doll!

  19. That is simply stunning! My hair is far too long to do something like that! Boooooooo!

    ReplyDelete
  60. So pretty! I want red hair now. Wonder how it would look in black? I just dyed mine. And why is that I am completely unable to resist a good red lipstick? I have plenty already, but I kind of want that Clinique one now!

  109. Wow! Gorgeous hair and style. Must try soon. I, like many other commenters have a lucky red-haired friend who is unfortunately not appreciative enough of her luck. She dyes it brown in the winter and doesn't generally like it. I will have to show her this post to prove to her how beautiful and rare red hair really is. Thanks for sharing the tutorial, Joanna!

  115. Hi Jo. Love your blog. That Chignon picture is the exact one that I took to my hairdresser for my wedding hair. Isn't it amazing. So simple, and elegant. If you are interested in how it translated in real life, my wedding pics are up on my blog right now. I got tons of compliments on the 'do and a month later, my husband's cousin had almost identical hair at her wedding. Coincidence...;)
