Get the Look | Miranda Kerr’s Chic Top Knot

The bun is not only a chic hairstyle to show off the face and neck and trendy statement necklaces and embellished collars, but a practical and easy ‘do for moms on the run or in my case, a mom who wants to keep her hair out of grabby little hands!  It can be dressed up or down and is a fabulously sneaky way to mask unwashed hair.

Miranda Kerr has been on my style radar for some time now.  She always looks effortlessly chic and has been seen rocking the top knot everywhere from the red carpet to playground runs with her 2-year old son Flynn.

Here are 10 easy and inspiring tutorials to find the bun style that looks best on you:
