fall trend poll

although we're still in the midst of this seemingly eternal heatwave, as we drive by the americana manhasset (a veritable shopping mecca, and our down-the-street neighbor) on our daily commute, we are met with window displays full of autumnal ensembles -- think long sleeves, cardigan sweaters, thick-knit tops and trousers. with the unrelenting oppressive heat beating down on us, we can hardly bring ourselves to start building our fall wardrobes. luckily, we can start to look ahead at the upcoming season's hair and makeup trends, for looks that give us a fall feeling, but won't make us melt! take a look at some of the biggest trends on the fall/winter runways, and weigh in with your favorites:

sleek, side-parted low buns, ponytails and chignons
(spotted at celine and balenciaga, among countless others)

teased ponytails and updos (also present at innumerable shows, including michael kors)

bangs (model abbey lee kershaw's fringe is our tonsorial inspiration, but the look was also spotted at lanvin and l.a.m.b.)

deep purple eyeshadow -- a continuation of the lavender and lilac shades that were popular for spring, but with a moodier feel befitting of the season (executed beautifully at carolina herrera)

wine-colored lips: again, a darker, moodier riff on the classic red lip. shown here at proenza schouler and missoni.

metallic nail polish (neutral greige shades and chanel's purple paradoxal polish are also a huge trend for fall, but we can't resist the hint of glitz that a metallic lacquer provides)
