I need a somewhat formal hair style for me....pics included?

Ok so I'm going to a gala in a couple weeks but don't have the time to go by a hair salon to get my hair done so I need a cute hairstyle that I can do with my hair.



This is me:

What kind of hair style would look good for me, that I would be able to do myself? If it helps my hair is kind of thick.I need a somewhat formal hair style for me....pics included?
Your dress is gorgeous!

You should do your hair like this:

You could even do your make up like that too

Well, the easiest thing to do would to keep it down. You can put it in a head band or something to make it look cute. Or if you have some small clips, break up the front part of your hair into small sections. Twist each section towards the back of your head and clip. It's kind of hard to describe.



Here are some cute short hair pictures if you need some ideas:
