THE SCOOP: Known for her trademark take in New York sporty chic, Donna Karen's design for DKNY Fall 2010 centers around long, lean silhouettes in a neutral palette of colors for the active and metropolitan city girl. The beauty look is just as low-maintenance and approachable, with an equestrian-inspired look that sweeps into a low side ponytail that flirtatiously sits over the shoulder.

Unlike most other collections, hair color is also incorporated into the final model look - with custom-blended pieces that were glued to hair using a medical adhesive not unlike eyelash glue, and then set with the cold blast hair dryer button.

"DKNY is about the city, and style that looks organic and casual. This new Wella color I used on the extensions has toner in it, to prevent red molecules from turning brassy - so you get a very sunkissed yet lived-in look. For the everyday woman, clip-in extensions are a great way to try a new color without the damage or commitment," says Scrivo.

Both the natural makeup and casual hair are equestrian-inspired, with a touch of refinement without any of the pretension.

GET THE LOOK MAKEUP - For fall, Studio Sculpt Powders in Bone Beige and Shadowy - which are working names - were used to brighten and gently define eyes. Brown Mascara was applied to the base of lashes only for a hint of color, and groomed brows were kept quietly polished with Clear Brow Finisher. And another new-for-Fall item, Cocochino Lipstick (another working name) was pressed into lips as a nude stain.

GET THE LOOK HAIR - After hair was prepped with System Professional Volumagic and blow dried with a large round brush, Souliman rakes his hands through the hair to loosen waves - finally fastening locks to the side in a low ponytail. System Professional Hypercurl applied to the length of the pony added texture and separation.
