A few of our favorite leading ladies—including Gwyneth Paltrow, Julie Bowen, Stacy Keibler and Kate Bosworth—have recently stepped out rocking the same hair look: sleek, shiny ponytails.

Pretty and polished, this modern look instantly adds a touch of class to any outfit, day or night. 

And as much as we love cascading curls or intricate updos, there's something so chic and simple about a fuss-free ponytail to offset a spectacular fashion moment.

To achieve a similar pony, we recommend blowdrying hair straight and back combing at the roots for added lift. Pull hair into a smooth ponytail and secure with an elastic. Finish with a shine spray and you're all set!

Would you rock this look?
