Don't Miss:

Now that’s one way to mix prints! Olivia Munn’s look at the VH1 Do Something awards came full circle when she coordinated her polka dot manicure with her pink circle print Alice + Olivia dress. While the crisp pattern may look intimidating for nail art novices, all you need to nail the design are two lacquers and a dotter tool like Orly’s ($7; orlybeauty.com). Apply a few even coats of your base color and let it dry completely. Then, dip your dotter tool into your second shade and begin placing the spots, starting from your cuticle. Finish with a layer of clear top coat, and you’re ready for the spotlight.

It’s been a while since we’ve seen a Really Good Braid, and Kristen Bell delivered at last night’s VH1’s Do Something Awards. We love how a few creative mini-twists set-off the chunky plait in her half-updo, which makes it the perfect mix of casual and chic. This is definitely a look to try for any special occasion (fall wedding, anyone?)—just print out the picture and bring it to the salon to enlist your hairdresser’s help, or use it as a guide to try on yourself. And for those going the DIY route, be sure to give hair a light mist of texturizer before starting. This gives the style more staying power, and ensures your plaits won’t slide out of place.
