Amanda Holden paraded down the red carpet of the Collars & Coats Charity Ball in her thigh-high slit in a strapless white Zeynep Kartal gown with poppy prints. Her light, flowing dress certainly harmonizes well with her fair and flowing hair to create a cheerful and carefree vibe.
 
Amanda's beautiful blonde tone is achieved by using both highlighted pieces as well as sections that are a few shades darker, called lowlights. Together, the two different shades produce a natural sun-kissed look.

This lighthearted wavy look is best achieved when working with freshly cleansed hair to strip away the hair's natural oils. First, a heat protectant is generously sprayed. Using a tourmaline ionic blow dryer will help combat unnecessary frizz by sealing the cuticle. After the hair is dried and cooled down, it is then parted down the center.
 
To create those fun waves, large three-inch sections are wrapped around a curling wand, away from the face, and held for ten seconds, then equally allowed to cool for a count of ten seconds. The cooling procedure is just as important as the heating process because without it, those beautiful beachy waves would not last very long.
