There's a highly-relatable meme on the internet about how a woman "means business" once she puts her hair up in a ponytail or a bun. Well, if you're Heart Evangelista, this still holds true, but maybe you'll kick it up a notch and add a vintage Chanel brooch (or three) to your tresses. Totally casual.
Heart—being Heart—has recently been schooling us on how to make ponytails anything but basic, and we're taking notes. Of course, not every one can sport designer hair accessories, but that doesn't mean that you can't cop the look and add your own creative touch. Here's a list of Heart's most extra 'dos of late that you can twist and make your own:
1. The first ponytail that caught our eye was the one adorned with Chanel brooches and silver clips.
Ever one to set trends and add her personal twist to things, Heart constantly collaborates with her go-to hairstylist Jeck Aguilar to come up with new looks. Here, she repurposed her Chanel brooches-some gifts, some she personally acquired over the years-to make her hair stand out.
How you can own it
Put your hair clips to good use! Go classy with metals, or softer with actual flowers set in resin.

2. And in more Chanel news, here's a voluminous messy ponytail topped off with that famous logo:
How you can own it
Cop the look with a bejewelled hair clip that makes a statement.

3. Heart shows that grownups can wear bows, too.
Here, she wears a thin red Chanel ribbon around her ponytail:
How you can own it
Just get any ribbon from your tin can of sewing supplies! Or if you want the perfect bow, get a clip or a scrunchie that already has one pre-tied.
TRY: H&M hair clip with bow, P349, H&M
4. No dainty ribbon? Scarves and bag wraps can double as hair accessories, too.
Here's Heart wearing a piece from her collaboration with Kamiseta around her hair:
TRY: Love Marie X Kamiseta scarf, P748, Kamiseta
How you can own it
Any hankerchief will do, but silk and satin ones give the look a classier vibe.
5. We used to think bubble ponytails will forever remain part of our childhood memories...
But apparently, Heart thinks we should bring it back, and we're kind of convinced:
This look even got featured on Harper's BAZAAR's Insta!
How you can own it
More floral accents! You can go with blossomed ties, or barrets you can easily clip on.
TRY: Kamila flower-themed clips, available online on a per-order basis
6. We've seen hairclips all over our feeds this year, and if that's more your style, here's some inspo from Heart:
How you can own it
Statement pins and clips are the way to go!
TRY: Stradivarius love hair grips, P695/set, Stradivarius
