Style Inspiration: The Bouffant Updo

love these images from 60's...the bouffant updo was THE look to have!

messy but oh so sexy like you havnt tried hard at all!

I love being a brunette
but I really think this style looks perfect in all shades blonde!
paired with lined eyes and pale lips tres chic and extremely glamorous!

Bridget and Catherine were so beautiful in their day! In fact Catherine Deneuve is still rather beautiful!

I'd wear my hair like that every day if I could be bothered spending all the time making it happen.

Love the top pic! My hair is too long to do that with - but it looks great.

Catherine was so pretty I always thought.I havent seen her real recent though.I am a brunette as well.I do sometimes in the summer highlight it a bit.I also love a bare clean face look with just a touch of gloss and maybe a bit of mascara.

I like it too....looks like you just rolled out of bed and tossed it on top of your head...very pretty. Love many of the things from the 60's.

It looks so sexy! I wish I could pull something like this off but I think it looks good with blonde and certain bone structure.

Gorgeous though!
