Get the look: Elegant Summer Ponytail

To get the latest L'Oréal brand representative, Evangeline Lilly's no fuss, sexy ponytail, check out below. Watch me try out this look in my DIY hair tutorials this summer!

To get an elegant evening ponytail that's not severe and has texture, spritz dry hair with water and comb a dollop of medium-hold gel through your hair before pulling it back into a style like Evangeline Lilly sported in Cannes.

—Polly Blitzer (via InStyle website)

Song in my head now: Kate Nash, Merry Happy
{if you don't know this song, it is worth the download...her accent is beyond fun to try to sing along with}

Ooh great suggestion! I have a hard time with having my hair completely pulled back because I feel I look like a boy! Haha. But maybe because it's been to severe and hasn't been textured, like you suggested.

I will definitely try and let you know how it goes! Unfortunately, I have, like a million fly-aways, so it may not look as cute.

Love the tip!

I'm so excited about the ponytails being seen everywhere.

And sometimes I sing Merry Happy in a totally obnoxious but pretty spot on Kate Nash voice and leave it on my friends voicemails. :)
