Braided Bunch

(pictures via here, here, here, here, here, and here)

Braids are classic and often summon memories of schoolgirl days and visions of Amanda Seyfried in Mamma Mia.  Over the years, the style has experienced several reworkings and evolutions that can function anywhere from the real world to the runway to the red carpet. The version I fancy the most is the effortless gathering of interlacing sections at the side of nape of the neck. I have the longing to cut my hair, which is currently a couple of inches below my collarbone, but I think I'm going to have to reexamine those plans after surveying pictures of diverse plaited coiffures.
