Nicole Richie has given Amy Winehouse's favourite hairstyle, the beehive, a modern twist wearing it smaller and decorated with plaits.
This take on the style looks fresh and interesting. It is perfectly in keeping with Nicole's casual boho look but does not look out of place at a formal event which Nicole proved when she choose the look to wear at the Art of Elysium 2nd Annual Heaven Gala in LA last month.
To create this style yourself keep shorter layers loose at the front to frame your face and leave out a couple of longer sections on each side of the head to create the plaits.
Backcomb the rest of the hair into a small beehive tying the ends into a messy bun at the top of your neck.
Plait the remaining long sections and using kirby grips pin them into the bun, or under the beehive, depending on where they finish.
Use a bit of hairspray to securing the ends but remember the look is meant to be laid back and messy so if sections fall free it will just enhance the overall look.
