Bella Hadid’s Coquette Cowgirl Braids Are So Easy To Copy

Bella Hadid is in her cowgirl era, perfectly timed to summer’s carefree and laidback energy. The 27-year-old has always been a bonafide horse girl, so her newfound love for the rodeo and cowgirl aesthetic is no surprise (especially given her horse trainer boyfriend). That said, she’s Bella Hadid: Of course her Western flair will have a hint of her ethereal fairy charm, and her coquette meets cowgirl hairstyle will surely become a summer hit.

ICYMI: The coquette cowgirl trend kicked off earlier this spring by the release of Cowboy Carter. The anticipation of Lana Del Rey’s country album, Lasso, and viral photos of Hadid supporting her boyfriend at the rodeo gave everyone the yee-haw bug. On July 10, her fragrance brand Orebella posted a slideshow of photos featuring Hadid on Instagram, re-igniting the trend.

In the photos, the Orebella founder’s hair is messy and pulled into braids. It looks as though Hadid tied two larger braids in the front sections of her hair, and swept back her face-framing pieces. Then she knotted tiny little braids throughout the rest of her hair. It was boho-chic meets model-off-duty on the farm, in a way that only Bella Hadid could pull off.

She paired her braids with a white lacy dress, and styled it with (you guessed it) cowboy boots. It also looks like Hadid went makeup-free with only a swipe of lip gloss on her lips (and of course, a spritz of Orebella).

Who could resist mixing boots, lace, and braids? The coquette cowgirl trend is the modern-day take on the Americana aesthetic, the Gen-Z way. All you need to get the look is a whimsical vintage-inspired dress (start with Praerie’s sweet selection), a good pair of boots, and Hadid’s easygoing braids.
