Topknots, loosely-constructed high buns, have taken over on both runways and red carpets. The look has been spotted on January Jones, the DKNY models, and everyone in between. Why? “It’s like a face lift,” explains hairstylist Eugene Souleiman. They’re also a ridiculously easy way to radiate youthful, I didn’t-try-too-hard glamour this spring break when you’d rather not waste hours of fun time styling your hair.  Transition texturized beach locks from day to night by coupling your sundress with a classy topknot.
Steps
Tease the crown of your hair before pulling it back into a high ponytail and securing with an elastic. Curling or braiding your ponytail is optional, but make sure to coat thin strands with dry shampoo or hairspray to boost volume and texture. Then, one-by-one take sections of hair, loop them around the base of the ponytail and pin them into the center with a bobby pin.
Finish all sections, spray with shine-enhancing hairspray, and keep your chin down and gaze seductive: it’s on!Â
Tips
1. Allow the bun to work for you. Some people look better with thinner, higher buns, and others with chunkier wide knots. Experiment with the width and placement to see what suits your face; the right look will enhance your bone structure and add elegance.Â

2. Create interest by wearing a cute headband, pulling  out a few sun-drenched strands, or leaving your bangs down.

3. Be the haute-est. Flaunt your shoulders and clavicles by pairing your topknot with another major upcoming trend: the statement earrings.Â
