Battle of the streetstylers: which chignon comes out top?
Our streetstyle wearers today have both opted for high-top chignons, yet styled completely differently. Discover which hairstyle comes out top this week…
The hairstyles. Our first streetstyle pick has mid-length hair with auburn highlights which lift her chestnut brown locks. She’s secured her lengths into a chignon and allowed a few strands loose to frame her face. The result is a natural, more relaxed vibe. As for our other choice, she’s opted for light brown locks with golden, blonde highlights. Her sleeker take on this classic opens up her face and adds a more sophisticated feel.
The looks. The first streetstyle wearer has chosen an oversized camel dress. Although this dress is long and billowing, it creates a feminine feel and elongates her figure. In terms of accessories, she’s chosen a wedge pair of high heel sandals. Our second pick, however, has played it minimal. A short, grey dress with opaque tights and leather boots. Her look is completed thanks to a large brown jacket with oversized sunnies.
The winner. Our hearts tell us to side with the first streetstyler, thanks to her messy chignon interpretation. Her opponent’s style is just as on-point and suits her perfectly, yet for us is a tad on the strict side. Re-create the mussed-up vibe for yourself at home by loosening up your hairstyles, allowing small strands to escape your hair tie. This is a great way to update your look and add a touch of personality to your whole outfit.
