Retro Glam from Kim K

From Us Magazine


Love her or hate her, Kim Kardashian keeps us talking!  She's creating quite a buzz with pics from her photo shoot for the launch of her new fragrance.  The look is all Old Hollywood, with tortoise shell cat glasses, a wrap around scarf, and a swooping curl across her forehead.

Which iconic star is she channeling in this intriguing look?  Many are pointing to the fabulous Audrey Hepburn as the inspiration.


In actuality, this look is named the Kelly scarf, it was Grace's signature look.


This style was worn to protect the hair while traveling.    Try it next time you hop in the car for a road trip with the sunroof open or the top down.

Start with a large square scarf.

Fold in half to form a triangle.

Place the edge over your head and bring the corners under your neck.  Cross in front of your neck and then tie in the back, under the tip of your triangle.  If you really want to go big, and you happen to have 900 bucks in disposable cash, an Hermes scarf is how it's done.



Kim also sported flowing waves in her commercial shoot.

Pin curls are the best way to get this style.  Compare this photo to this one...

Kim's lightened her hair for summer!  Sometimes it not about extreme changes.  A small switch in gears goes a long way.
