Cate Blanchett looked radiant in red when she showed up to the BAFTA Los Angeles Awards Season Tea Party. Her style was simple and elegant and had a retro inspired vibe.
A polished hairstyle combined to match with a polished outfit with a crisp, buttoned-up collar.
An updo is always a great idea to pair with a high-collared top. It keeps things from getting overwhelmed, and sweeping her hair up helps you see the detail in the garment. Cate's dark blonde hair color is a
very warm shade with flecks of gold throughout. The length is probably several inches past her shoulders.

You do need some length to achieve a hairstyle such as this. Her hair is blown out smooth and curled on the ends. The crown is teased slightly to create some texture and height and then smoothed back gently into a
low ponytail. The hair is then gathered into a messy bun and pinned for a fun and whimsical result.
The bun is centered in the back, but her hair is parted deeply to one side in the front for a cool contrast. Her bangs are kept swept to the side to add framing and softness. Because Cate did not keep the hair
slicked and super smooth but more soft and undone, it creates a cool, casual feel. We love it!
