Break Out Your Pencil Skirts and Costume Jewelry: The 40's Are Back!

Time to dig out that winter wardrobe, ladies!


Once you've packed away your summer clothes (we do that on the East Coast), and unpack your winter styles, head out to pick up some current (or, should I say, not-so-current-looking) pieces for your closet.



The 40's are making a comeback, with 40's-inspired styles hitting the shelves of every retailer.

Furthermore, hairstyles are following the pattern (patterns...40's... get it?), as hair trends are easily influenced by the current runway fashions.

In yesterday's UK Telegraph, Sarah Mower reiterated this exact sentiment: "Forties glamour is also influencing hairstyling. The essential thing is to find a hairdresser who can get a Veronica Lake wave going over one eye ... or to practise with curling tongs until you get it right."



So, whether you choose to break out your 40's-glam for your holiday party, or incorporate it into your everyday style, ask your stylist if she is educated and comfortable with 40's waves and 40's-inspired styles.


Looking for this style? Check out http://www.secretsofhairdesign.com/ to learn more about the salon, or call for information on setting up an appointment with a stylist that is educated in Forties-Inspired Waves.

Best of luck finding the perfect vintage (or simply vintage-looking) pieces for your winter collection!
