Hair for a ball?

[MissBianca]

I have a chin length straight hair with a fringe. Very blonde. Am late forties. I have no time to go for a blow dry or style, so need to do my hair myself.,,am panicking now, any ideas?

I will be wearing glam makeup with red lipstick. Cocktail length dress, v neck and lace skirt, if that helps

I think that length would be fine left as it is.

Any layers? If not then it could be taken up with clips or combs at the sides, perhaps.

I'd shy away from any style that is very different from your usual, as you will hate it - I once had a hairdresser put up my hair for a friend's wedding - it really wasn't me

Change your parting and add a glam hairclip?

Would a clip be ok then? Was worried decoration would be ott?
