Hair & Beauty

Ecostore eco friendly bodycare & cleaning products

I've not yet had the chance to visit New Zealand, but I'm fast becoming convinced that plenty of good things come out of that little country. Beached whales for one. My latest find, though, is an unassuming, unimposing little bunch of products by a NZ brand called Ecostore.

The bob trend: Lily Allen's new short hairstyle

Taking her cues from Kate Moss' short hairstyle, Lily Allen has joined the ever-growing list of stars sporting the bob hair trend. Lily's chin-length bob with side fringe has been cut with layering to create a textured look.

Thanks to the likes of Miss Moss, the bob in its various forms is likely to carry on as a 2009 trend, though those daring enough might opt instead for the pixie crop.

The many sides of Victoria Beckham's pixie crop

The first time we saw the pixie crop hair style on Victoria Beckham we knew she was out there to make headlines. And though the pixie crop is a definite 2009 hair trend, it was from men's 2009 hair trends that Beckham took more of her style cues. Today it's out with the schoolboy and in with tousled, and we have all the angles to show it off.

Leighton Meester: Milkmaid Braid Hair Trend

It's not quite a full-on milkmaid braid; but it's close enough to the 2009 hair trend to warrant a mention.

Victoria Beckham: pixie crop, schoolboy slick

Taking her cues more from 2009's men's hair trends, Victoria Beckham attended her fragrance launch with a slicked back school-boy hairdo with side-part.

Posh's pixie crop hairstyle is maybe not as versatile as other style's she's sported, but she still managed to create a whole new look with it seemingly by using little more than some hair gel.

Kate Moss' bob hair cut: more pictures

The first time I brought you pictures of Kate Moss' bob hair cut they weren't exactly fantastic. But thanks to a busy social life, the hypermodel has provided us with yet more glimpses of the sexed up, bed-hair bob which is likely to have a big influence on 2009's hair trends.

You can't even see her face, and yet it's already being dubbed the kob. Such is the power of hypermodel Kate Moss that a new hair style precipitates new hair trends.

Victoria Beckham gets pixie hair cut: trend

Victoria Beckham is not afraid to experiment when it comes to her hair; after famously starting thepob trend she has now moved on to another one: the pixie crop hair cut trend.

In wearing the hair trend Beckham has almost guaranteed that the 2008 hair trend will become a 2009 hair trend.
