There's nothing like a good hairstyle to make a fresh hairstyle. Hairbands, claw clips, and barrettes add instant glam to any style, but one accessory has had such an effect this year that it has embraced every corner of our lives. TikTok, Pinterest, and Instagram are all flooded with bows as they decorate candle sticks, wine glasses, and every hairstyle imaginable.
Hair bows aren't new, but for those that haven't, it's been a few years since we last wore one, which is likely why we're so fixated on them. "We often wear bows in our hair as teenage girls, and it's a simple way to style up any outfit and give a festive touch," Camille Friend, a celebrity hairstylist and Prose spokesperson, tells POPSUGAR, "we often wear bows in our hair, as well as a Prose spokesperson." However, the trend has exploded in the last year, with a 163.2 percent search increase on Pinterest in less than a month. It's been a hot favorite from the Alice + Olivia runway at New York Fashion Week to the red carpets. This is especially true during the holiday season, when many of us are looking for a touch of magic in our daily lives.

Elevated Space Buns Are Trending

The 90s have made a comeback, and we're soaking up every second of it, but there are certainly some trends we're loving more than others. For example, we'd like to avoid, and marinated makeup is something we're excited to return to our routines. Not every retro beauty trend has made its comeback as well as the space-buns hairstyle. Space buns were a common hairstyle in the 1990s, but they have recently undergone a makeover. Thousands of celebrities, including Marsai Martin, Charli D'Amelio, Olivia Rodrigo, Yara Shahidi, and many others, have tried the "elevated" space-bun hairstyle style, including countless others on TikTok and Instagram alike, have worn it.
The key to this "Zenon"-inspired hairstyle is its versatility. The basic version — two pigtails twisted into buns — can be made in a matter of minutes with just two hair ties, but we've seen several iterations of the space-bun hairstyle in our social media pages over the past year or so, sparking the creation of the "elevated space-buns hairstyle." Half-up, Half-Down; curled; and braided details make the look more fashionable and wearable outside of the original festival-type destinations from which the look was derived.

Hailee Steinfeld continued celebrating her birthday week in a series of dazzling images shared on "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" star's Instagram account on Tuesday, just three days after displaying her 26th birthday in a glittery silver slip gown, Steinfeld posed in a sheer crossbody ruffle and lace minidress from David Koma's resort 2023 collection. The collection's central motif, an iris flower, appears in Steinfeld's ensemble twice, once as a 3D metallic embellishment hand-embroidered at the base of the dress's plunging neckline and again on her neck in a silver chain.
The sleeless dress, which Steinfeld styled with black underwear, featured a semitransparent skirt with angular waist cutouts layered under a lacy, sheer appliqué balancing elements of femininity, sophistication, and structure. The dress fluttered out into a ruffled, peplum style on either side of the massive cutouts. Dani + Emma, a fashion stylist, styled the outfit with chrome-toed, knee-high boots; silver drop earrings; and a set of David Koma lace evening gloves in black. She wore the minidress under an oversize black blazer with five-button detailing along the cuffs in a single picture.

The model and her staff were looking outside the box when curating Gigi Hadid's CFDA Awards. Thanks to makeup artist Patrick Tailor and stylist Mimi Cuttrell, the Guest in Residence founder delivered an eye-catching grey lip and spiked septum ring at the ceremony on November 7th.
Although Hadid's makeup looked sleek and sophisticated from afar, up close, her appearance's main feature was an unexpected pair: her gold septum piercing and matte lip. Although the septum ring was most likely fake (an affordable alternative to the real thing), the gold hardware with protruding studs was the most convincing way to complement the pop of colour against her neutral makeup.
The baby braids in Hoyeon Jung's are at their high point in Y2K

Hoyeon Jung's hair at the 2022 Academy Museum Gala was the perfect reminder that fun, elevated looks don't have to be complicated. On Oct. 15, the model and actor arrived at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures with face-framing baby braids courtesy of celebrity hairstylist Jenny Cho. The Y2K beauty look featured a traditional middle section, with two thin braids on each side of her face. Jung's hair was both charming and flattering, much like the remainder of Cho's career, which can be seen on anyone from Ana De Armas, Jennifer Lawrence, and more.
Except for the two braided pieces that framed her face, the "Squid Game" actress' long hair looked glossy and natural, and it added little gloss to her straight style that fell right below her shoulders. Jung is far from the first celebrity to try out the baby braid hairstyle; Hailey Beiber, Charli D'Amelio, and Bella Hadid have all worn the style.

We're just living in Bella Hadid's '90s-inspired world.' The supermodel has long stated her passion for beauty trends from the decade (see her zig-zag segment and several french manicures if you need proof), and her latest look is no different.
Hadid's '90s accessory of choice' and her night out during Paris Fashion Week on September 28th. A chunky black headband. Not only was the accessory a nod to the early aughts, but it also fit her leather jacket and pants.
