Okay, so maybe we haven't sworn off of topknots forever. Colbie Caillat breathed new life into the trend with a reverse braid that snaked up the back of her head and wound into a messy bun set high on her head.

Frida Kahlo was the inspiration for this braided headband from the Rebecca Minkoff Spring 2014 runway show. Three four-strand braids were wrapped around the models' heads, sprayed with TRESemmé Fresh Start Color Care Dry Shampoo and then mussed for a lived-in feel.

Spotted on the Rodarte F/W 2014 runway: hippie braids taken to the next level with a messy rosette. The half-up, half-down style is ideal for keeping thick, wavy hair out of your face.

We're used to seeing messy, unkempt braids, but Jada Pinkett Smith shows that sleek goddess braids are just as pretty. Apply an anti-frizz styling cream, like Living Proof Straight Making No Frizz Styling Cream for Medium to Thick Hair, to damp hair before styling to get the look.

Amy Adam's plunging gown may have made us do a double take, but it was her hair at the Golden Globes that stopped us in our tracks. Loose braids pulled her hair back from her face and into a tucked bun accessorized with small braided strands running throughout.
