In recent advertisements, curly (TIGI, right) is as chic as straight (left). Doesn’t the Tony & Guy list pic remind you of a certain Gossip Girl? 
This last look (via elleuk.com) is dedicated to Fellow Fashionista and curly-haired chanteuse Clara of Come What Mai, who just got engaged – congrats, darling!

CC your post is making me miss my long locks.
It's about time crimping came back, dammit.
inspiring post! I really like Anne's hair there, it's just soo classy. I am in love with making my hair into a french twist at this moment xx
this post gave me so many ideas! i've always been a fan of pin-straight hair, mainly since mine is so wavy.
ITS NOT ME WHOS GETTING MARRIED!!!!! But a very good friend of mine!!
Thnk u anyway!
Ive got the best hairstyles anyway, may I still vote???
The Frida Kahlo-like plaits are original and fresh. Love them.
And I find the C.Herrera twist so stylish and feminine!!!!!
i'm really feeling those up-do's, love the volume up front! and the men's hair is hot.
oooo...you are so right! thanks for finding that for me :)
I've always loved what ws can do with long hair but short haircut suits me better.
OOooo great post, I'm inspired. Thanks for the comment deary;)
your twin,

With all the hair raising options it is amazing how infrequent anything but the tamest of hairdos are ever seen in ordinary life.
Hair is one of the best seduction 'weapons' women can take advantage on :)
But I'm sure you know that, you have fantastic hair!
Gorgeous pics, btw.
Hope evrything's alright!

Oh interesting question! I have a personal preference for updos but loose waves look gorgeous as well. Regardless of the hairstyle, I think it should hold up to a full day of events and look good from every angle (the photos people!).
I gotta learn how to do "full and voluptuous" pronto
My hair doesn't do anything. :(
Even when I backcomb or use mousse or curl it falls out in about 30 minutes.
I am so jealous off these epople - i think jodie Kidds hair is lovely.
What a really incredible and nice looks!!!! Kisses
ohh i love this post. i really should try out more things with my hair!
Love glamorous curls, like seen on the models on Gucci fall collection. I wanted my wedding hair to be wavy, soft lovely curls. Natural, but glamorous. I have never regretted that decision as I felt that I was at my most beautiful that day.
ooooh love these photos.. i wish my hair wasn't so flat!
oooh, that DK blonde is great ...thinking I should go back to that light. love it.
Hmmm... gorgeous heads :)
Well... I'm a short hair woman...
and that's all, not many things can be done.
xoxo
Cómo lo haces, qué maravilla de fotos !!!
Soy fiel a mi plancha d pelo de GHD.

I love all these hairstyle. It's so hard for guys to have style or shape to their hair without having their sexuality attacked. I need to become a model or something.
Gosh I love all these hair styles! It's a pity my hair isn't as versatile :(
Personally, I'm thrilled. It looks no matter how I style my hair, I'll be current!
Ohh love all the hair...the long sexy curls are HOT!
ooooh i love the full and voluptuous!
The hair at Dior! You can use it as a bag..Haha. Love it though!
That was a hair raising post!
Carrie, you have outdone yourself. I am heading to the hairdressers as we speak... Great pics. Carla x
Oh, sugar. I just got my hair cut so short.... so 20's... and now, watching those beautiful "melenazaaaaas" miss mine!!! :)
this is a stunning post darling Carrie!isnt the hair absolutely dreamy? its amazing what can be done hair wise on the catwalk.truely love the McQueen spiky bun so much! its all like art to me.the best wedding hair must suit the brides personal style and aura if not it looks contrived and plastic.so for eg If shes a bohemian/hippie,hair would be gorge loose & long but in luxe way as opposed to just everyday messy.the hair must work with the lines of her gown too. this is a beautiful post sweetie.
muah!

A good hairdo = successful look
What a beautiful pictures, WOW!
We loved that!
wow some of these are truly works of art...for wedding hair i personally love something flowy and romantic
I love this post!! I am obsessed with hair...just wish I had the time and energy to do fabulous things with mine!
beautiful photos!
I have being thinking recently that I should do more with my hair, its very long and even day hangs about my head in a disheveled way.
I think I need an up-do, or perhaps a brush would be a start...
xx
Oscar de la Renta and Gucci, of course. They are absolutely great hairstyle!

all very delicious.
I always get tempted to cut my hair short to have boyish look but after this I'm set. No cutting for me!
Sorry for the withdrawal episodes you have encountered.
When I see you use anything off my inactive blog e.g. pics/ideas/etc, I get my blog fix, truly love it as you are the standard setter...
Such a great array of following fellow bloggers you posses; quite impressive.
