On October 12, we were convinced that Martha Stewart was trying out Bumpits for the first time, given her voluminous bob. Just four days later, Stewart took inspiration from the film Breakfast at Tiffany's for a bedazzled, glamorous updo.
On October 13, Stewart hosted the Brunch at the Blue Box Cafe alongside Daniel Boulud for the Food Network New York City Wine & Food Festival. She wore a black, flowy, long-sleeved dress with matching heels and gilded pearl jewelry. If you're unfamiliar with the classic ‘60s film, Audrey Hepburn plays the protagonist, Holly Golightly, who wears a little black dress and a gravity-defying updo topped with a sparkly barrette, as seen on the film’s iconic promotional poster.
Stewart's hair was no different. Her short blonde hair was parted on the side and gathered into a roll on the crown of her head. You can see the gleaming barrette in the shape of a snowflake placed right in front and center of the bun. Though this style looked polished, it was still secured loosely, so you can see wisps of hair poking out around her sideburns and from the bun.
Her hair looked just as good from the back and sides. In the photo below, you can see how the back half of her hair was styled into a French twist.
We're used to seeing Stewart's blonde hair, usually styled in beachy waves, grazing her shoulders. In fact, if you scroll through her Instagram page, you'll notice that her hair is always down — the last she tied it up was in early September, and we couldn't find any other recent instances of her wearing updos after several scrolls down her feed. Her Breakfast in Tiffany's-inspired style is a welcome and exciting change, and, hopefully, this won't be the last we see her in it.
