HAIR: Rudi Lewis for Redken
MAKEUP: Romy Soleimani for MAC Cosmetics
NAILS: Deborah Lippmann for the Lippmann Collection
SNAPSHOT: Pretty Nomad

THE SCOOP: Designer Adam Lippes' Fall 2010 fashion show was filled with aviator-inspired layers including shearling jackets and knit sweaters in rich earth tones, and the hair and makeup followed suit with an urban traveler appeal.

Influenced by the textures and fabrics in the collection, Rudi Lewis created a woven braid hairstyle with a touch of rock and roll. "I wanted the hair to have texture as well but tougher," said Lewis. "So, I pulled in the sides really tight and folded underneath the crown for a loose Mohawk."

Romey Soleimani carried out this warrior element bringing in earth tone shades to the face. "Adam's collection has all these beautiful grays and then there was this one section that had rust and natural leather colors, so we're playing with those but softer."

Celebrity manicurist Deborah Lippmann rounded out the look with Fashion Week favorite, Fashion, nail lacquer.

Fill in and brush brows outward for an edgy look. Brush cheeks with Mineralize Blush in Laguna.
