subject: Instant Glam, The Towie Way! [print this page] After the success of The Only Way is Essex, it is no surprise that many people are trying to emulate the looks of their on screen idols. From the glamorous dresses and skyscraper heels to the fake tans and eyelashes, the Towie look is definitely taking the UK by storm. One of the most popular Towie inspired trends is hair extensions, transforming otherwise dull locks into red carpet styles. If you are looking to try out the Towie style, here are our must haves for Essex style glamour.
Sparkle!
There is no such thing as too much sparkle when you are going for the Essex glamour style. Sequins and glitter and your best friends and can be worn in many different ways. A bright bodycon dress is the perfect choice for a night on the town and can be paired with even more sparkles thanks to the amount of glittery shoes that are now available to buy on the high street.
Height
Flats are a no-no therefore its best to start prepping your feet now for a night of dancing. Platform stilettos are the perfect choice for those looking for the Essex look; make sure yours are at least 4 inches high! If you find yourself struggling to walk why not take a look at the range of shoe boots available or perhaps a sturdy wedge heel?
Hair
It is not just your shoes that need to give you height. When perfecting your Towie barnet, the higher the better! Hair extensions are the ideal choice for those looking for instant volume and are widely available. Choose good quality human hair extensions that match your existing colour and style with curlers or straighteners to achieve the look that you want. If you do not want to go for a full head of extensions, why not try subtle streaks of colour? A few flashes of pink, red or even just a lighter highlighted shade is a great way to spice up your look.
Make Up
When it comes to make up, the more dramatic the better! Bright lips, tons of blusher and lashings of mascara are standard in the Towie universe. If you are looking for a more subtle look we recommend sticking with smoky eyes, lots of fake lashes and plenty of lip gloss.
The Towie look is easily achieved if you stick to the simple principle that bigger is better! Follow our tips and you will soon be ready for your camera close up.
