I really do have a beauty dilemma!

So I’ve forgotten one key thing planning our wedding, I have NO FREAKING IDEA what I want for my Maid of Honour’s hair or makeup! I want a classic look, but I have no idea what that entails. She’s left the decisions entirely up to me, but I had enough trouble with my own hair and makeup. So, to get the ball rolling, what are some classic hair and makeup looks for Bridesmaids? She’s brunette and slightly tan with brown eyes. Dress is pale blue knee length kinda chiffon-y material over the top of a more solid material. (haven’t actually seen it in person).

I did have the idea of a side ponytail maybe… but i really don’t know, and google just confused me. Please post any bridesmaid looks you’ve seen and liked!

    Are you just doing your own hair and makeup for the big day or are you getting it done professionally?? Most brides usually opt for a dress rehearsal before the big day so that you don’t have any stress and flops on the big day 🙂

    I’ve had a makeup trial, can’t afford a hair one but discussed in detail when i last went with pictures, Maid of Honour lives 3 hours away from the hairdresser/makeup artist and we’ve both been too busy to get a trial, but discussed concepts with both of them, Thanks girls think I have a good idea now 🙂

    Love Jess Alba’s hair with the little plait and Taylor’s looks gorgeous too =D

    I like the second one for bridemaids I think

    And I really like the second from the left in this, that simple but very pretty twist across the front is just lovely.

    I quite like this look but just a little toned-down and neater, the makeup is very pretty too.

    Both of those are lovely BQ, guess it depends on her hair type, length and face shape. I’d skip Eva’s bambi lashes though, just a little too OTT for me =D

    I love a soft makeup look on bridesmaids, depending on her skin tone either warm pinks and browns or soft metallicy gold or bronze looks lovely. I did the makeup for my friends wedding, Clinique’s quad in Spicy is great and EL’s DoubleWear ShadowCremes make a brilliant budge-free base and they come in some pretty colours so you can layer.

    im a fan of the half up half down look, with curls for a more formal look.
