Adjusting hair to what you wear?

Hey ladies,

Do you style your hair to match the rest of your look or do you just go with the flow?

(Oh and feel free to drop pics )

Yes, I go for the polished look so most of the time my hair is in a bun, but sometimes I may do some sort of roll, tuck, and pin. My edges have to be smoothed.

Thanks for the replies so far, I figured it would be a fun topic to discuss.

You can also post pics off the web of examples of a hairstyle that goes with a certain outfit by the way.
I will see what I can contribute.

As for me:

I wore updo's(high buns and high ponytails) from mid summer to winter for a while last year, they were a reliable easy going style that didn't go wrong appearance wise and I had something less to think about at the time with everything I had going on. So I guess I can see both sides of the coin.

But in general I do strive to adjust my hair style to the outfit and add hair accessories if needed to finish the look.
There are some outfits that I think look cuter with my hair down.
Others just look better with my hair up.
Some look great with big hair and with others I have to tone it down.

I have noticed that I have less "hair stress" with V necks, anything seems to go with those.

Do you wear the roll, tuck and pin style with business or any other sort of formal attire or casual as well?

I do agree with your view on it being part of the total look and setting the theme.
As for everyone doing this, there are also people that wear their hair out and down the same way every day no matter what they wear.

I plan my hair around my outfits, weather, my attitude, and her cooperation or lack thereof. Most work days, I go for a classic, simple, yet polished outfit. So, Cleo reflects that. I'll try and remember to post pics later when I'm at the laptop
