Origin of Beehive Hairstyle + B52

Origin of Beehive Hairstyle + B52, The Beehive is a woman's hairstyle that resembles a beehive; it is also known as the B-52, for its similarity to the bulbous nose of the B-52 Stratofortress bomber. It originated as one of a variety of elaborately teased and lacquered versions of "big hair" that developed from earlier pageboy and bouffant styles. It was developed in 1960 by Margaret Vinci Heldt of Elmhurst, Illinois, owner of the Margaret Vinci Coiffures in downtown Chicago, who won the National Coiffure Championship in 1954, and who had been asked by the editors of Modern Beauty Salon magazine to design a new hairstyle that would reflect the coming decade. She originally modelled it on a fez-like hat that she owned.

Weirdest Fashion Trends

Yak nipple frocks, jewellery made of human hair and a urinal dress: The weirdest fashion and beauty trends of 2011

When Lady Gaga appeared on stage in a dress made entirely of raw meat last year, you would have been forgiven for thinking the fashion world couldn't get much weirder. Well, think again.

Making Gaga's steak dress look positively tame, this year a designer by the name of Rachel Freire created something even odder: a dress made of 3,000 yak and cow nipples.

Elsewhere in wacky fashion and beauty trends, we've been sticking crazy coloured lip transfers on our lips, intricate paper art on our eyelashes, and snakeskin on our fingernails... Read on for the weird and wonderful trends 2011 had to offer.

interesting fashion icons. Most people who read the here OU Daily fashion blog know me personally, so I know I’m stating the obvious by saying that I’m on the shorter side–5’2″ to be exact. Keeping up with trends when you aren’t built like a model can be tough, but to be honest it mostly has to do with confidence.

I thought it would be neat to break down what looks the most flattering on different body types and fashion muses for your figure, but please know that rules are meant to be broken–I contradict a lot of what I’m about to say, because I have a serious case of “IDoWhatIWant” syndrome. Personally, I think the most interesting people are the most individual, so don’t be afraid to do the exact opposite of what I suggest!

Disclaimer aside, read on for a guide to staying on trend even when you’re tiny!

The actress is almost unrecognizable without her signature red carpet hair and makeup.

Behold the power of make-up! We spotted Sofia, a natural blonde (really!), on set in New York filming "New Year's Eve," looking almost unrecognizable.  Without her signature voluminous locks, sunkissed skin and vampy make-up, we had to do a triple-take! Her long locks were uncharacteristically dull and flat, and her skin appeared to be WAY fairer than usual.  And her on-set look (a cutesy ponytail and flirty make-up) is different for her. The verdict? Miss Vergara's beauty knows no boundaries.
