Violet, 24: “A bit of sun in my hair thanks to the dip dye”

Your look? Since seeing Blair Waldorf’s chic, preppy look in Gossip Girl, I have fallen in love with clothes that suggest that bourgeois schoolgirl style. But that’s the only thing I copy. Since then, I’ve added my own personal touch to make it my own style. So, while pleated skirts and satchels are some of my favourite items, I like to customise these pieces with bolder accessories. Then it’s just mix and match!
 
Your hairstyle? I like simple hairstyles that don’t take much preparation. I have quite manageable hair which I can style quickly and easily, so I don’t spend a crazy amount of time in front of the mirror every morning. I rarely wear my hair up, unless I’m doing sport… I do, however, wear a lot of accessories. Headband, hair slides or ribbons, you name it!
 
Your look today? Hair down and straight, like almost every other day… But I’ll tell you why! I recently went for a dip dye, which means that my ends are lighter than my mid-lengths and roots. So I want to show it off, not hide it in a chignon! I think this technique boosts my simple haircut and gives it added light. I make sure I take special care of my ends by applying a hydrating hair mask each time I wash my hair. I leave it on for 10 minutes to make sure I get lots of shine.
