Women's Hair Trends 2009: Styles, Colors, Cuts
There's little point in wearing clothes from 2009's fashion trends unless you have the one other major element just right: hair.
Taking their cues from 2008, in 2009 women's hair trends will play to the extremes. They might be extremely short, extremely girly, extremely sexual or extremely slick. It'll only be the bob hair cut which will sit somewhere to the left of extreme; and you're going to be hard pressed to find that hair style on fashion forward women.

Oh so lamé: the lamé trend continues
Painting it black has reached the pinnacle of chic this season. Its dark wings have swept through just about everybody's wardrobe. But sometimes we need a little more: a little shine, a touch of glitz to put that glimmer back into our sometimes monochrome ensembles.

Feathers: Autumn (Fall)/Winter 2009 Fashion Trend
There's something about feathers - they conjure up images of graceful swans, of flitting sparrows, of fairytales, and the dream of flight that can only ever be a dream for we wingless creatures. As a Autumn (Fall)/Winter 2009 trend, feathers and plumes add that ephemeral touch.

2009 Jeans Trend: Boyfriend Jeans
This is one 2009 fashion trend that I'm still really hesitant about. And to clear from the outset I'm not hesitant as to whether or not the boyfriend denim jeans trend is going to be popular, it is. Rather, I'm more hesitant as to whether people are going to get it right or not.
Katie Holmes certainly hasn't.
Men's 2009-2010 Hair Trends: Styles, Cuts, Colors
All fashion trends are cyclical, and in recent years have gradually modernised the looks of the 20th Century and planted them firmly in the 21st. And so too it is with men's hair trends in 2009: it's out with the new, and in with the old. Or at least an old hair style with a new twist.
2009 sees men's hair styles fall into two distinct categories: school boy and rocker. But while the rocker look is certainly a 20th Century creation, the resulting hair style finds its roots (if you'll pardon the pun) distinctly in 19th Century Britain. And so it is in 2009; while the odd 2009 runway collection featured something akin to a grunge revival, the majority of us will live out 2009 with a refined, classically inspired hair cut.

Colour Trends for Spring-Summer 2009
Looking to pick the right colours for your wardrobe in Spring-Summer 2009? If the predictions we're seeing from both Pantone and TFL are anything to go by, expect a move away from metallic colours over to a much more earthy, subdued color palette. Indeed, such a colour palette is perfect for some of the 2009 fashion trends, such as the bohemian luxury Winter trend - but could they see the look transposed to the Summer season by way of the foho trend as well?
More of Hayden Panettiere's bob hairstyle
When we first mentioned Hayden Panettiere's new bob, like so many of 2008's hair trends it was met with plenty of approval. So here's another post about Hayden's hair - this time I think she looks even more stunning, wearing a sophisticated take on the red lipstick beauty trend.
Bohemian Luxury: Winter 2009 Fashion Trend
When Anja Rubik, Natasha Poly, and Lily Donaldson all headed down the catwalk during Milan Fashion Week we realised there was one key look that would influence 2009 fashion trends above all others. Sure to become a staple for fashionisers everywhere it's the Bohemian Luxury fashion trend.
What is it?
It's a luxury take on a bohemian look. Part peasant, part Cossack, part sex-goddess rock chic. And it's here for the colder months of 2008/2009 - largely thanks to an outstanding collection by Frida Giannini for Gucci's Fall (Autumn) / Winter 2008/2009 women's collection and men's collection.

Katie Holmes' short hairstyle: the pixie crop
Taking her hair style one step shorter, Katie Holmes has shortened her bob to a new pixie crop.
The crop is a tough one - it comes up a hair trend every once in a while, but not everyone can pull it off. If you ever even considered chopping off all your locks, now is definitely the time - the crop is high on the list of 2008's hair trends as well as 2009's hair trends.
If Katie Holmes' hairstyle shows us anything, it's how much of a difference styling can make to the crop. In 2008, it's best with a bit of length that can be messed up and tousled a bit - in the guise of effortless, boyish bed-hair. You only need to look at the following photos to see how much less effective the crop is when unstyled.
