Just when we thought there couldn't possibly be any more ways to wear braids, who better than trend-setting Lauren Conrad to bring us back in? At the Hollywood Style Awards last night in LA, the former reality show star styled her signature waist-length extensions in not just one side-braid, but two intersecting plaits.

I can't help but admire Diane Kruger's laid-back braid, which she wore to the Inglourious Basterds photo call at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this week. The chunky to-the-side style, which starts off as a French braid, morphs into a fishtail as it cascades down.
