With the combination of warm weather and a busy weekend, we are in need of a fuss free hair style that is still super chic. In come: the ponytail. But we’re not talking your average scrunchie. There are braids, twists, teases, and blunt bangs that accessorize even the simplest of tails, and we’ve scraped around for our 20 favorite looks. Flip through, feel inspired, pull back that hair and get ready to whip your hair.

Prometheus star Noomi Rapace gets into character in the June 2012 issue of Dazed & Confused. Appropriately titled “Supernova” Solve Sundsbo shot her in explosively large black & white structured dresses, capes and jackets. In line with the rest of the magazine’s sci-fi theme, we can’t stop flipping through the images, daydreaming about futuristic alien fashionistas.

LOOKBOOKS contributor Kenberly Paul slips Under the Twilight Sky with Crystal Renn for Vogue Japan.
Decked in delicately jeweled and lace garments, Crystal Renn (Ford Models) stars in Vogue Japan‘s editorial “Under the Twilight Sky” from the June 2012 issue. Shot by Camilla Akrans, Renn tells a tale of romance and intrigue in looks from designers like Dolce and Gabanna, Hakaan, Balmain and Yves Saint Laurent styled by fashion editor Sissy Vian. Scarlet red lips against a natural face accented with strong brows by MUA Sil Bruinsma (Streeters) along with a retro hairstyle, reminiscent of Betty Paige, by stylist Alain Pichon (Streeters) are the perfect touches to each mystifying look.

Weddings: a time of joy and extraordinary inebriation. We love a good wedding (reception), especially when it comes to getting gussied up for the occasion. Unfortunately, not everyone is aware of appropriate wedding attire. At the last one I attended, I saw someone wearing jeans. JEANS! Granted this was in Ohio where the hillbillies roam free (love you homeland!), but the real truth stands, no one knows how to properly dress anymore. But if you need some assistance in this area, don’t fret. Here are four types of wedding – black tie, cocktail, daytime and casual – and the breakdown of what to wear for each.

With summer festivities fast approaching, we’ve decided to walk, nay, sashay down memory lane and take a look at the internet dance blasts from the past. Remember wheelchair stuntin’ in the Cat Daddy? Bouncing around screaming Chicken Noodle Soup? Or what about the Soulja Boy? Simple choreography that makes us looks like utter fools, especially after a few drinks. Missed out on developing your dirty dance moves? Here’s your chance to guiltlessly watch and learn how to get your inner hip hop on (thanks to Mahalo.com). Enjoy!

If a model (or her agent) goes all diva, and storms out mid-session because some mildly creepy photo assistant snaps a sneak shot, your overreaction flags are likely to wave with a strong east wind. He’s a budding photographer, too, no? Well, this eerily rapped, music video for Shadow by Brooklyn-based recording artist Alan Wilkis, with Lyrics Born and White Hinterland, shows what happens when the model’s got a point.
