02.20.11How To: Orlando Pita’s Horizontal BunsFor the Carolina Herrera Fall 2011 collections, Orlando Pita created these sleek horizontal buns to complement the graceful simplicity of this season’s luxurious clothes. “I wanted the hair to look special and different from what we’ve seen before, especially since it’s all about what happens at the back of the head,” Pita says. "For this season, I‘m feeling a strong move away from tousled, messy hair." Fashion is definitely more dressed and polished and it's dictating where hair is going. The looks are more controlled, healthy looking and shiny." How To Create Pita's ...

01.12.11Who Will Natalie Wear To The Oscars?Everyone is dying to see what Natalie Portman will wear to the award shows this season, since she will be nominated for Black Swan, she's engaged to the film’s choreographer, Benjamin Millepied, and she's pregs. She's basically the most talked about star on the planet right now. There has been a lot of talk that Natalie will wear Rodarte to the Oscars, but the New York Times is saying Dior, which comes straight from her stylist Kate Young, who has helped dress Natalie for the last eight years. "Dior has the Black Swan star in its pocket because of ...

12.03.10Natalie Portman’s HairstylesMy vote as one of the most beautiful actresses alive, Black Swan star Natalie Portman has had many hairstyles--and roles--over the years. ELLE.com highlights some of her best looks since her Hollywood debut in 1994. Which style do you like best on Natalie? Long and straight in 2008 or long with volume and layers in 2010. Gorgeous with a buzzed head in 2005 or with a pixie cut in 2006. Retro curls in medium brown in 2007 or soft side curls in honey blonde in 2008. I'm also loving the side bun Natalie wore to the IFP 20th Annual Gotham Independent Film Awards on ...

11.11.10Lauren Goes GlamLauren Conrad was in attendance at the VH1 Save The Music Foundation Gala in New York City this week. And as usual, she did not disappoint with her hairstyle! Lauren wore a loose side bun and paired the look with cat eye makeup. She's done that eye since the beginning and it's kind of her thing. The hair and makeup worked together nicely with her periwinkle silk dress. The whole looks is very old Hollywood glam. My only minor quibble is that I would've liked to see a more neutral lip, since I am not a fan of this deep red, but ...

09.16.10Yay Or Nay: Malin's Loose BunI am really digging the loose bun Malin Akerman wore at the InStyle party at the Toronto Film Festival. She's been wearing her hair pulled back a lot lately, but I prefer her with a little bit left loose around her face. (Sidenote: I wonder if she regrets that tattoo?) Anyway. I think this hairstyle looks totally gorgeous with Malin's drapey, open back dress. I love it. But... What do you think of Malin's messy updo?

05.29.10Sex and the City 2 Hair SecretsHairstylist Mandy Lyons, of Sally Hershberger Downtown, has created the gorgeous hairstyles of Sarah Jessica Parker and Parker’s alter ego, Carrie Bradshaw for the last eight years. ELLE was granted an exclusive interview with Mandy and discovered what went on behind the scenes of Sex and the City 2. ELLE: How have Carrie’s hairstyles changed since the last SATC movie? Mandy Lyons: Now that Carrie’s married, we wanted her hair to be more grownup and sophisticated. You’ll see that for the bulk of the movie, she wears these big brushed-out waves that are very glamorous--we don’t normally do that to her hair. ...

05.25.10Sex and the City 2 PremiereSarah Jessica Parker hit the red carpet for the premiere of Sex and the City 2 in New York. She looked floaty and fabulous in an asymmetrical fluorescent yellow Valentino chiffon gown from the spring 2010 line. Love the flying hair, SJP! That color is just simply amazing. AMAZING. The first season of Sex and the City was recently OnDemand and I re-watched it, and man, that show started off really great. It's still good in a sort of eat an entire bag of cotton candy until you feel sick way, but it use to be good-good. Kristin Davis looked very much ...

05.24.10Cameron Diaz’s HairstylesCameron Diaz is the quintessential blonde, California surfer babe, but she’s actually had a range of hair colors and worn a number of different hairstyles. Check it out! Cam looks gorgeous in a bun. She wore this casual, centered bun here in '07 and a higher updo in '09. I love both looks. I also love her eyeliner. She did that black eyeliner look for a long time. Crazy that Cameron had all these hair colors, right? She was dark brown in '06, reddish brown in '07 (kinda like her character in Shrek, Princess Fiona), and blonde this year. I like her ...

05.18.10Marion's Forward BunMarion Cotillard wore this unique updo to the Chopard 150th Anniversary Party at the Cannes Film Festival last night (May 17). It's kind of like her bun is in the front, and kind of like she has a little hat made of hair. I think it's a tad too messy. A style like this has to be completely neat to work. Also, interesting jumpsuit. Thoughts?
