Music Monday - I Want To Break Free

For today’s final instalment of the Movember Music Monday take over I am sharing with you a band whose front man is the icon of all icons in teams of embracing the moustache.

He is a man that shows every man how the moustache should be worn. For today’s video I have chosen Queen’s - I Want To Break Free.

I have chosen this video because it is fun and is a video that does take itself seriously even though the song is a big freedom of speech.

So here is the video! Check it out and let me know what you think…


 


I hope you have enjoyed today's video and don't forget to let me know what you think.

Guest Post by ReeRee - 4 Instant Ways to have Rockabilly Hair

Today marks a very exciting moment blogbehindthelook.com as I introduce our first guest post by ReeRee from rockalily.com. ReeRee will be sharing with us 4 Instant Ways to have Rockabilly Hair!


Here is where I hand over to ReeRee so please join me in welcoming her to blogbehindthelook.com and I hope you enjoy her post. Don’t forget to let us know how you get on with creating these Rockabilly styles!

4 Instant Ways to have Rockabilly Hair by ReeRee

1. If you're wanting to inject some rockabilly style to your hair, hair flowers should definitely be your friend. Collect a variety and then you can mix and match according to your outfit.

2. Have a new fringe cut in. The Bettie Bang fringe (named after Bettie Page) is a classic look for rockabilly girls, and can make even a 'boring' ponytail look glamorous.  Can give you the feeling of new and exciting hair without having to chop all the rest of your hair shorter!

3. Experiment with curls. A vintage set created by rollers can be a fun way of having a more vintage look. I like to sleep in foam rollers, and then brush through with a soft brush to create an authentic looking curl.

4. If all else fails, wear a bandana of scarf! I'm nervous to count how many I own, but I do have an entire drawer dedicated to them, and they're organised by colour. It's the perfect disguise for a lazy hair day, or a failed updo!


Rockabilly loving and former librarian, ReeRee is the owner of London vintage hair salon, Rockalily Cuts. From here she writes her amazing blog, her column for a tattoo magazine and as if this wasn't enough she also runs a business group.

Music Monday - TKO

As we are in November also know as Movember to the guys, I have decide that for the next 3 weeks of Music Monday will be celebrating everything moustache…

For today’s video I am sharing the music video for someone that is passionate for music and style. He is very creative with his music and videos alike and the one that I am sharing with you today is one that features his new sexy moustache and beard look for his song TKO.

SCREEN SHOT FROM VIDEO
I am guessing that you have by now figured out that I am talking about Justin Timberlake, so check out Justin’s look and let me know what you think.



I hope you have enjoyed today's video and please make sure you check back next week for another Movember themed Music Monday!

Music Monday - Firework

Happy Music Monday everyone!

For today’s music Monday I have chosen an explosive video to go with this week’s colourful light flashing week…Guy Fawkes!

SCREEN SHOT FROM VIDEO
You may have guessed by the title of this post that today’s video is Firework by Fashionista Katy Perry. 

SCREEN SHOT FROM VIDEO

I love the dress that she wears in the first verse; it looks amazing and sets the scene perfectly and as she moves on through the song she changes in to dresses that are belted to emphasize her waist.

SCREEN SHOT FROM VIDEO
So with much further a do here is the video! Enjoy!



What do you think? Do you have a favourite outfit?

Hope you all have a great bonfire night and keep safe everyone!
