Who said short hair can’t look romantic? Carey Mulligan’s old-school hairstyle is ultra-sweet and has soft edges — perfect for that date coming up. To get it:

1. Apply a small amount of smoothing cream to damp hair and comb through.



2. Blow dry your hair straight, and use a flat iron to touch up any parts that might need extra smoothing.

3. Use the end of a tail comb (or even a bobby pin) to evenly sweep your hair across your forehead.



4. It’s time to pull out those sparkly chandelier earrings — they add the perfect touch of elegance to this look.
