Is there anything that captures the steamy, carefree days of summer quite like a good ponytail? With its distinctively girlish charm and outdoorsy athleticism, the youthful style defines cheekbones, reveals swaths of sun-kissed skin, and looks that much better when rumpled by a summer breeze. Case in Point: In New York City last week, Adriana Lima shared a selfie featuring the Statue of Liberty and a casual, windblown ponytail (expertly paired with a set of Wayfarer-inspired shades and a nude pout). Thick and swingy are the best descriptors of Lily Aldridges recent take on the look, which she accessorized with round sunglasses, a smile, and a backdrop of summery green. And Beyoncé cemented her golden status by way of a high plaited pony—slicked back, fastened, and braided to perfection. Here, three takes on the look that will inspire you to tie one on this weekend.
