The current focus is on how Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen often head out with their hair effortlessly tucked into their neckline. Phoebe Philo is also known for this chic look.

If you add one or more of these to your look and pay special attention to the placement of your hair, you'll get the Olsen twin essence that we all seem to be going for. Keep scrolling to shop my top picks for trying the viral "Olsen tuck" trend with ease.
