Brand Your Hair With a Braid

Shakira may twist and turn those hips to mesmerize everyone, but you can twist and turn your hair to leave an unforgettable impression. This is the year of braids ladies! They look oh so natural! and feminine, and there are so many regal styles to go with braids if you need to be dressed up and then the simplistic styles of braids for an ordinary lunch/dinner out with friends. All the celebrities are doing it from the red carpet to lunch out at The Ivy in L.A.

Personal experience: I recently imitated Diane Krugers braided hairstyle (to those who don't know her, she's in the last photo on the bottom right) for an engagement party and honest to God, it was a big hit! So be bold with braids!
