Looking good on a hangover

by Laura Farrant
continued from page 1
Hair
Smoky atmospheres are likely to have left your hair dry, flat and smelly. With no time to wash and blow dry, spray in Frederic Fekkai's RX Protein Reparative spray. This will soak up the excess oil, give your hair some body and extend your style for at least a day.

Work with your hair's natural texture. That means backing away from the straightening irons - at least for one day! Not only will the irons just dry your hair out even more but also their effect is no longer as fashionable as it once was. Encourage a natural wave in your hair. Mix a generous amount of two Bumble and Bumble products; Styling Crème and Brilliantine and apply to the hair for texture that mussed up hair heroine Sienna Miller would be proud of. If all that seems like too much effort take advantage of the fact that hats are big news this season and the perfect way to disguise a bad hair day.

Fashion
As with everything else, keep it simple. After consuming alcohol and calories galore, this is probably not the time to don those navel-exposing jeans. Opt for more ladylike chic. The slimming effects of black are well known. And the good news is that black is one of the key colours this season. Create a slink silhouette with the help of a Diane Von Furstenburg wrap dress. This will hide a multitude of sins and will make you feel dressed and well presented. Then all you have to do is add a simple accessory.

Prada are leading the shoe trends this season and their retro platform heels are what you should aim for. This kind of vertinigious footwear will make you feel seriously sexy. Alternatively, if your feet are still damaged from last night's dancefloor antics, treat them to a day in cute flats. Marc Jacobs's mouse shoes are both stylish and comfortable.

After following these guidelines and promising that you will never drink again, the only thing you will possibly have to worry about is what you got up to the night before. All products available from the usual outlets, websites and department stores.
