We help you get sophisticated and flirty party curls!
The Holiday Event: Black-Tie Affair
What you’re going for: Sophisticated and chic
Try: Tastefully Tousled Knot
How to get it: For this formal, champagne-toasting event, you’ll want your most elegant and glamorous side to shine. You have the perfect gown, now it’s time for a romantic style that is all your own.
Cutler suggests a twist on the half-up-half-down ‘do. First, loosely gather a group of curls from both sides, away from the face, and create a knot in the back. Then, secure it with a decorative accessory, such as a sparkling gemstone brooch or barrette.
“The accessories play up the elegance and the festive season,” Cutler says. “But you don’t want to look like a Christmas tree and you don’t want [the style] to look contrived. So don’t pull your curls too tightly, and the knot doesn’t have to be symmetrical.”
The finished look? Sophisticated, yet natural — and all you!
