Beauty Trends for 2010 (I hope)

This post was planned for yesterday, the second, but just before I could start writing, the power flickered and we had to unplug the airport, so no Internet. Consequentially, the yesterday referred to in the text is actually January 1.

Yesterday evening, I sent out a tweet asking for post ideas. Hanako66 suggested trend predictions for 2010. I had already written and published a post, but I loved the idea. I spent a good part of today trolling Style.com, looking at pictures from the Spring/Summer ’10 collections, more specifically, looking at the beauty section. After much thought, I chose three looks I would love to see become more wide spread.

Chanel:

I love the simple, natural looking makeup and hair, paired with glitzy hairpieces and jewelry. The natural look appeared in several shows, but I found that Chanel pulled it off the best. All the others looked like they were trying a bit too hard, and they ended up looking like caricatures, in my opinion.

Christian Dior:

I also adored the vintage inspired lips and hair, combined with bright eyeshadow and dramatic lashes that we saw at Christian Dior. At first I was on the hedge about it, I found it a bit much, but it’s really growing on me.

Versace:

The carefree rocker chic look used by Versace is another favourite of mine, the bold eyes and dewy lips are simply amazing, in my opinion. I may be crazy, but I feel that these looks capture the devil-may-care attitude that is so often portrayed in pop culture (and that I secretly want to find).

What is your favourite makeup style for 2010? What do you think will become the most widespread?

Thoughts? Requests?

Love, Rosie
