While it’s possible to create gorgeously tousled waves with a labor-intensive routine that involves careful sectioning, twisting, and spritzing to achieve the look of cool-girl effortlessness, it’s nice to be reminded that a one-two punch of bedhead and a rainy day will also do the trick.

Our lazy-Sunday hair hero: Lara Stone, who showed up at Topshop Unique in London today with her long layers crafted into a fuzzy side braid. It’s a quick style that can withstand a bit of unforeseen drizzle, and it unraveled into loose, bendy waves once Stone shook out her plait inside—and offered an easy strategy for turning a surprise shower into an organic supermodel-approved hair upgrade.
