This is a sweet example of a slightly windblown hairstyle. A great choice for ladies who want to put their hair up to get it off their shoulders but still look unkempt and not stuffy. Sleek and ornate updos can sometimes look too rigid and harsh but this tousled ponytail has the perfect amount of whimsy and charm to make it wearable at any occasion.
 
It's an awesome look for women who have medium length hair. We think that Kate Mara pulled this style off wonderfully when she attended the 2014 Marie Claire Fresh Faces Party on August 8th.
 
Her head to toe style is very elegant and chic. We love her short red dress and it really pops on her skin tone. Her hair color is a medium blonde shade with incredible amounts of dimension. Mara's highlights and lowlights blend together beautifully to create an awesome overall color.

To create this look on your own, start by prepping your hair with product. Grab several sections of hair and spray on hairspray or texture spray on them to give your strands some grit. Tease the back crown for a little lift and then pull hair back gently into a low ponytail and secure.
 
Sweep your bangs up and back gently and secure with a bobby pin on top of the head. Gently pull some strands out of the ponytail around your face and then twist and pin them back for interest. Follow up with a hairspray to hold.
