Crazy for this simple neutral look. The classic trench looks great thrown over the white mesh tee, shorts and oxfords. I love the model's hair color as well.

I've always thought of a milkmaid braid as a daunting and complicated hairstyle, until I came across this simple 2 minute/3-step alternative to the look. Now I just need to grow my hair out a bit to be able to try it out. If any of you do try this, let me know how it goes!
