So what are a few tips to achieve her look? For one, stylists’ advice on knowing what looks good on you. Instead of trying every new trend that comes out to the market, find the one that give you the best silhouette and colors that highlight your complexion. Remember that dressing up need not be a pain in the butt just as long as you know what flatters your figure. It doesn’t need to be uncomfortable to achieve the look that you desire. Instead, focus on pieces that are more forgiving and play around with your body shape. A drop-waist dress can still be elegant, but the looser silhouette is more forgiving. For a casual stroll at the park or a day at the beach, she takes the X factor from a sexy top or dress by covering it up with a cozy cardigan. If you’re wearing a heavy bejeweled jacket or top, make this the focal point by pairing it with a cool jean and barely any accessory. Also, if you’re up for a tougher look once in awhile, try tucking your jeans into knee-high boots and pairing it with a black leather jacket. Finish the look with a soft, sexy hair and delicate jewelry to balance off the look. Sandra prides on a style that is sexy but not over the top. Sandra Bullock is all about wearing warm, friendly colors. Wearing a sunny color even in the evening makes you stand out in a sweet, playful way. Leave the fiery red dress to the dangerous femme fatales.

Hats are definitely a must-have, especially if you’re having a bad hair day. It’s one of the quickest ways to go from casual to cute. To add a bohemian touch, use a soft beret. Next, choose an accessory that emphasizes the shape of your face and the sexiness of your eyes like dangling earrings. Keep it light by staying away from sparkly jewelry instead try wearing gold pieces that can be paired off with any outfit. It’s all about wearing jewelry to draw attention to your face and accentuate your outfit but please do not let the accessories overpower you. As for the hairstyle, Sandra likes to go au naturel with free-flowing locks.

Celebrity hairdresser David Babaii achieved this red carpet look by combining eras of vintage fabric textures with the perfect epoch red hair color. According to David, “Nicole Kidman always inspires me but for the 2010 SAG Awards, her beautiful skin tone and breathtaking beauty took the lead. The right style and hair color became my main objective.” David fell in love with this unique period wig that had various tones of ginger. In order to achieve the perfect color match, David sought out the master talents of celebrity hair colorist Lorri Goddard-Clark. Lorri created Nicole’s rich new color, while David created the perfect texture needed to enhance this natural but classic “Bohemian” look.

The Color: Lorri Goddard-Clark matched the vintage wig selected by David Babaii by utilizing a combination of deposit-only color, her signature foil-out reverse highlighting technique and a sulfate-free glaze. Nicole’s hair was transformed from a medium blonde into a rich, warm Gingered Toffee Red to enhance her azure eyes and porcelain skin.

According to Lorri, “It was truly an honor to work with David: he is a genius. I was thrilled to collaborate with him on this look for Nicole Kidman.”

The Style: David gently towel dried the hair and sprayed Bohemian Beach Spray throughout. Next, he gently rough dried the hair moving his hands in various directions to create texture. Once dry, he fashioned a center part and divided tresses into 4 sections (sides, back crown & nape). Starting at the nape area, he alternated between 1″ and 1 ½” ceramic curling irons, taking “V” shaped partings. He then wrapped hair around the inside of the barrel, holding for 10 seconds then gently releasing the curl. With each alternating curl, David slid his fingers up the curl to gently create a soft back combing effect and enhanced texture. After finishing the entire head, David used his fingers and added extra Bohemian Beach Spray to loosen the curls and highlight the richness of the hair color.
