5 celebrity hairstyles for fall 2012

1. Blunt bangs

Spotted on the runways at Marni and Versace this season, heavy, straight-cut bangs are making a comeback and celebs like Jessica Biel, are already on board. The beauty of bangs is that they help frame the face, cover up a wide set forehead, and they enhance the eyes. Adopt the look yourself for a super trendy and positively chic look.

2. Ornate hair accessories

Oscar de la Renta, Rodarte and Dolce & Gabbana showed us that bling is in for fall 2012. Take your cue from the star of the summer flick Snow White and the Hunstman, Charlize Theron, and get your ‘do all dolled up. Opt for rhinestones, pearls or gold accents for a vintage take on fall 2012’s trendiest styles.

3. Chestnut hair

It’s time to trade in your beach-blond waves and opt for a darker, sleeker, autumn look. Khloé Kardashian rocked pale ombré hair this summer and while she’s showing us two-toned hair is still in, fall 2012 is about a darker look with subtle highlights.

4. Low-hanging braid

Whether you’re a fan of the fishtail braid or you simply prefer a traditional braid, the idea this fall is to keep it on the down-lo. The hot look for fall 2012, seen on the gorgeous Blake Lively, is a slicked back ponytail that ties just below the ears. Start the braid off from there for a quick, easy, low-maintenance look that’s on trend.

5. Top knot

Gwen Stefani is back on the scene with No Doubt and she brought her signature hairstyle back with her. Also seen on stars like Lea Michele and Jennifer Lopez, the top knot is getting loads of attention. It’s also one of the top fall wedding trends so if you’re saying your “I Dos” this season, this is a look to consider. Opt for a sleek variation for a fancy occasion or adopt Gwen’s messy style for every day.
