Martha Stewart is no stranger to the spotlight but in these images, her hair is the star! The first thing that you notice is her bangs. Bangs are an excellent styling tool, and the right bangs can accentuate certain facial features while hiding or flattering others. A bang can enhance your eyes for instance. A fine, wispy bang that sits straight down or to the side can accentuate large eyes. You can elongate your face by adding volume to your short hair. If you want your face to appear longer than it actually is, this style is ideal for you. Furthermore, your hair is also given the illusion of having more volume than it actually does. Someone with thinning hair like Martha can benefit from this technique. By layering, you give your tresses texture, depth, and shape while preventing them from looking flat and one-dimensional. Layering accentuates curls or waviness that are otherwise hidden, and provides you with a way to make fine hair look thicker and voluminous without sacrificing length. Generally, layered hair is perkier and more active.

You should apply your makeup in a formal/evening manner when it comes to your makeup application. Smokey eyes are a great way to start. Add a few false lashes for an even more dramatic look. Make your lips pop with a pastel lip color as Martha did, or go for something bolder like a deep red. Highlight and contour your face and neck area to give the appearance of an oval face shape, and you are ready for your night out!
