Tops Knots + Braids

How charming are these painted portraits of top knots and braids by artist Elizabeth Mayville? These effortless and casual updos, seen on hair of all types and colors, remind me of what I love most about summer . . . ease.

    Beautiful. It’s so interesting how she’s really nailed creating hair styles with paint. I can’t imagine how difficult that would be.

  10. I love the different styles and illustrations. Adorable! It’s funny but I do a messy top bun almost everyday while I’m at home or sometimes on the go. I didn’t even know it was considered fashionable, lol. It’s just easier for me to wear sometimes. I’m glad it is fashionable! 🙂

    Love and Luck,
