3 Effortless Hairstyles We've Spotted on the Streets of Paris
When it comes to scoping out the new-season fashion trends, it looks like Paris is the place to be right now. With the style set taking to the streets of the French capital for haute couture fashion week, we've already spotted at least nine new street style trends that are perfect for summer. Luckily for me, it isn't just their wardrobes that the fashion set have been having fun with either—there's plenty of beauty inspiration to be found too. Though I have to say (aside from the always-chic Parisian basics of red lipstick and eyeliners) that it's the hairstyles that have really been turning heads this week.
Keep scrolling for the three effortless hairstyles that we've spotted on the streets of Paris this week. I reckon they'll be making their way over the Channel and onto the streets of the UK just in time for summer.
Hair scarves
I've already touted the hair scarf as the trending hair accessory of the summer, and it was definitely proving its popularity on the streets of Paris this week. Wear them with the ends loose to elegantly secure a low ponytail or layered over the top of loose hair (bandana-style) as a more elegant alternative to dry shampoo when you're in-between washes.

Low buns
Basic? Yes. But if a bun is good enough for Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, then it's certainly good enough for me. In Paris, buns were worn super low—right at the nape of the neck—and, while I did spot a particularly cool braid-wrapped bun, most are worn loose with flyaways roaming free.

Beach waves
What would summer be without beach waves? The fashion set was in firmly two schools of style when hair was worn loose: slicked back and sleek or flowing and wavy. For me, this look made the cut, as you can easily re-create it at home by plaiting freshly washed hair before bed. Totally fuss-free and always stylish.
