Yes, Even Ashley Greene Dresses Down

Here we have Twilight star extraordinaire looking uber cas but uber fab as she has what might be for us just an ordinary day, minus the paparazzi frenzy. For this day, Ashley was just heading out to Starbucks to pick up an iced coffee and was caught looking super sweet as she did so. This is one of those looks that proves once again that you don’t need to always have fabby hair to pull off a glam look, you just need the right smile, and the right ensemble and you can get away with a ponytail super easy.

For this look though, you may need even less than a few extra minutes. You can get away with second day hair, so save some morning minutes and go without the wash. Dampen your soft bristle brush as you pull this ponytail back, and let it sit nice and high on the back of your crown like Ashley has here. If you have bangs, then you just need to bend your bangs under ever so slightly with your flat iron or curling iron or you can brush them back like Ashley has here. This is the cute part of the sexy look, the sexy comes with the outfit you pair it with. If you pull off the right look like Ashely has here and choose simple pieces that are casual, but fitted to your size and complement your figure, you can get away with the ponytail. By doing so, you can even pull this look off at the office if you want. Doing just that will ensure that if you are getting looks from the office crowd, they are the kind of looks you want. Go ahead and sleep in a little since you won’t have to worry about your hair. Even if you arrive a few minutes late looking THIS hot, you may be surprised at the positive reaction.

Yes, looking at her here you would never guess that she has to spend a second sweating over every little calorie, as she still manages to look fantastic. For her spa day, Heidi went for a standard look with her hair piled back and little concern for muss and fuss and even so, she still looks fabulous, as she has the designer duds that take all the focus off of her hair.

Post you time, you definitely want to lose the second day hair, and wash and go as you normally would for your day. But one thing Heidi IS proving here is that even supermodels can go a little casual now and again and still look fabulous. And you can too!

So it’s nice to see her pop out and give us a smile to prove that she is just as gorgeous as ever as she and her husband visit their family in the Buckinghamshire countryside in the UK. And even when she is out and about visiting family, she looks just that fabulous. Does she ever have a bad anything day? Who knows, but what Gwen is doing with this ponytail is a great thing, as it shows that yes, even a second day hair day ponytail can look both sleek AND chic, whether you are taking it day or night.

This look is easy to accomplish, particularly since you are going to skip your shampoo and do this with second day hair. For your front section, take a fine tooth comb dipped in water, and create a razor sharp part about 2-3 inches long. Then, comb the remaining section on the back of your crown, and tease it lightly to give you a bit of height and volume at the back of your head. Use your fine tooth comb to sleekly comb your sides to the back, gathering your back crown section together with your two sides. Secure the pony nice and high, and pull out some bangs to the side in either direction of your part, however you feel most comfortable. Don’t be afraid to tease them up a little bit like Gwen has also done here. Finish the look with a little spritzing of hair gloss, and you have yourself a super easy hairstyle that will look and stay great for any occasion.

Did Jessica Alba’s Stylist Take the Day Off?

Jessica Alba is seen here having what for many of us would just be a normal day, as she goes out and about performing mommy duties with her daughter Honor in Santa Monica. She is one that always seems to look glamorous, so when she is having a day where she is not so glamorous, it kind of ends up looking like a bad hair day. But this is a look that many of us sport while we are performing our own day to day grind, so who are we to judge? And though she is in uber cas mode with a plaid flannel top and her hair piled in the back, she still looks great. Though if I might say so myself, she is kind of starting to look again like she could use a sandwich or two, no? But this is a look that you can pull off as well, as Jessica shows that you can go with an uber cas look and still sexy and chic.

She has simply pulled back her hair in a sexy ponytail, and not fussed too much about flyaways or concise neatness. Had she wanted to amp up her style a little bit, she could have cleaned up her ensemble, perhaps worn something like a fitted tee instead of a loose fitting top, but we can’t blame her for worrying about causes more than her look. If you want to go super cas as well, you can do so, and do so however you like. If you want to be a little stylish and chic, you can do as suggested with a fitted tee over your comfy pants, or a chic fitted zip up hoody is just as cute.
