He was the lead hair stylist on Sex and the City 2, he made Anne Hathaway fabulous on film, and he's GoLocalProv's weekly style expert. Frank Barbosa, the Newport-based celebrity stylist, brings red carpet perspective to hair, makeup, and overall style.

This past week I was lucky enough to attend Fashion Week NY, seeing that I am working on a project here in the city. I am excited to return back to Newport bringing with me that NY creative spirit. Meanwhile, hot from the runways...

The days are fading when a good straight blowout was all the rage. Now we are going for a more realistic, flowing look that looks great when layering clothes for fall and winter.

A look to copy: Clip up the top of hair at the crown naturally, the blow dry hair without round brush for texture, then everything on top blow out with brush and let drape over your natural texture. Think a layering look with your hair that's similar to clothes layering.

Another alternative after natural blow-out, use different irons (flat and curling) to put different textures into your locks.

Being around all the amazing fashion this past week and seeing where clothing is going, I feel that flat, deflated hair can be just that when sporting the upcoming fashions, so big textured hair (but still polished!) is the new fall trend.
