Madrid is an old city with a new energy that is excited about pulling environmental responsibility forward to meet the chic standards the city already embodies. When asked to divulge her favorite eco hot spot in Madrid, Yo Dona Magazine‘s Editor in Chief, Charo Izquierdo Martinez, was thrilled to introduce us to Ecobar.

“My Green place is Ecobar, Villalar, 4, Madrid. Tel 914315371. I love it because the possibility of drinking a tea or having dinner… green tea, green dinner. As his chef José Luis Ruiz recommends, I like Lomo de merluza blanqueada con crujiente de carabinero y crema de sidra.”

Serving an international selection of organic dishes in a proper upscale bistro setting, Eco Bar is a place where the staff appreciate questions about the food and proudly answer about the sourcing as well as ingredients. A farm to table experience with a wonderful European twist!

Quick and Easy UpDos for New Year’s Eve

3 Fabulous UpDo Ideas To Fashionably Enter The New Year

Sleek And Sophistocated

1. Kick this style off with freshly washed hair, add a little bit of mousse, like Yarok’s Feed Your Roots, to catch the fly aways. Take vertical sections starting from the front to the back and blow dry each section back toward where your anchoring your stylish pony.
2. Use a friends extra hand to try embroidery silk around your pony tail in place of a rubber band to ensure maximum smoothness and shine.( The reason for the replacement is to reduce the extra bumps and unwanted texture resulted in using a rubber band)
3. To finish this fab look take a small piece of hair and wrap around the embroidery silk to cleverly camouflage and beautifully walk your way into that New Years Party.

Raw Texture Meets Classic

1. With this fun yet simple style you can choose to start out with curled hair or straight hair. Take vertical sections starting at the hairline and tease at the root for a little extra umph, directing your hair backwards.
2. Place your hair into a braid, fishtail or regular, and bind it with a rubber band.
3. Take a small strand from the open end of the braid and grab around the bottom band with the other hand, push up toward the beginning of the braid, creating a very textured look, then pin creatively to produce an amazingly undone bun, spritz with a finishing spray, like the Certified Organic Perfect Hold Spray fron Intelligent Nutrients.

Short And Sweet

1. Take a 1/2 inch barrel iron and go in towards your roots with the tip of the iron.
2. Curl with the tip of the iron in different directions to add movement and texture
3. Finally go in with some type of texturizing paste to add a little more control and mold into a daring hairstyle.

Added Tips

• Look at the profile of your face, if your chin sticks out further then your forehead try placing all ponytails, buns, and weight toward the top of your head or your crown area to enhance your beauty even more.
• If your forehead sticks out a little further then your chin try placing your bun, pony and all weight towards the nape of your neck for a fashion forward balance
