For a younger girl who loves to dance and enjoys ballet, why not give her a room that has a ballet theme. This is one of the bedroom decorating ideas for girls which is very simple to design and something that your little princess will definitely enjoy. A ballet studio cannot be complete without mirrors, so for one wall just use stick on mirrors and a barre to make it look exactly like her own private ballet studio, and of course the room color should be pink. Hang real ballet shoes on the wall and use pink colored netting material as a bed skirt. Top it off with more pink and cream bedding and voila, the perfect ballet room is ready!

Surfs Up!
Another choice for girls bedroom decorating ideas is the beach theme. Most tweens and teenagers love to surf or just lounge at the beach. So, why not create bedroom decorating themes that reflects the beach? Use colors like blue which is a representation of the water and for the sand you can use the color tan, and if you or your little girl is the creative kind, paint starfishes, ocean waves, seagulls or a sunset over the water on the walls. You can also attach wall appliques such as hibiscus flowers or surfboards for an instant punch of the islands. Select bed coverings and curtains that match the color choices and accentuates the beach theme. Raffia fringes are not only easy to apply but also lend a Hawaiian hula look to wherever you use them, whether it is desks, dressers, or window valances. You can string shell shaped party lights across the headboard or along a window valance.

Bon Voyage!
If your girl has a passion for traveling then another one of the design ideas for girls bedrooms, is to create a bedroom that can take her around the world. For example, pick out a few places that are her dream destinations and let each part of the room reflect one destination. You can have a Eiffel Tower bedside with a mural of the pyramids of Giza and a four poster bed reflecting the tropics. All you need to do is use your imagination to come up with a one of a kind room.

Splash of Color!
For any girl, color plays an important part in her life and personality. So, another one of the classic girls bedroom decorating ideas is to use her favorite color and create a bedroom style that will be as unique as her. But instead of using just her favorite color, select another color that complements that color. Rather than simply painting your walls a solid color, consider painting stripes, polka dots or clouds or use stencils to create a decorative border along the ceiling. You could also paint a mural on one of your walls. Match curtains, bedding and accessories to these color choices. Girly means cozy and glamorous, as well as feminine. Create a private reading nook by taking a corner section of the room and hanging a soft fantasy bower over the area. A white shag carpet and lots of cushy pillows completes the special spot.

how to look like a pin up hula girl?

i am a hula dancer
lately i have been going more toward the tribal look in shows and parties
how would i go for more of the pin up hula girl look?

and do i need to curl my hair to look pinupy because i naturally have straight hair that i dont like to curl

thanks for the answers

For women in the 40s (the begginnings of the pin up phenomenon) hours were spent in the salon or at home curling their hair. Most womn set their hair once a week or slept in pin curls. Therefore the glamour girls of that day had curly hair. If you want an authentic look curls are the way to go. If you want to get away with minimum curls what I would reccomend is that you curl loosely around your face and curl the ends so that they have some bounce to them. then just pin the curls up on either side of your face just behind your ears. THat's going to be the most hassle free way of curling.

If you absolutely don't want to curl then I would reccommend that you get yourself a huge fake flower, pin your hair up like I said before (with the front pinned up on one side behind your ear and secure the big flower so that it creates volume and focus in that area. Kind of like this http://happyjolly.com/vargas/x/vargas$hula30.jpg . You couls even braid your hair and leave it in over night and this would give you at least waves in your hair that would give you a bit of volume.

Also you can do victory rolls without curling but you need to do a fair bit of teasing or back combing of the hair. They are very authentic pin up girl though and would look really good but they are complicated to get right. http://img40.echo.cx/img40/8754/howdohair10au.png

I too have straight hair and I find it inconvenient to curl my whole hair all the time. I think the best approach is to create the illusion of curls with either a few well placed curls, a big flower or victory rolls. Good luck!
