Hair Trend: Fun Up-dos

Emma Stone has been sizzling on the red carpet recently while promoting films, The Help and Crazy, Stupid, Love (Ryan Gosling <3) and her hair-do from last night's premiere of The Help inspired me to talk about this noteworthy trend of messy, fun up-dos!

Here is a 360 view of her hair from last night:)







The key to achieving this look is randomness - there is nothing precise to the 'do. It's kind of gives the of the idea that "I just kind of threw it together and it looks fabulous", which I love!  To dress it up Emma even added a little jeweled clip on the side, which adds that little thing that makes this look so special.
