Women looking for an elegant updo suitable for the summer heat and is easy to recreate should look to Eva Mendes' top knot with a sweeping fringe, which is a beauty trend sure to make waves.

The star of Hitch and 2 Fast 2 Furious was spotted by beauty news source Showbiz which stated that the look is a beauty essential. "It's the perfect style for balmy summer nights when you don't want your hair on the back of your neck or if you want to create a new look for a glamorous outing," the website asserts.

The writers spoke to celebrity hair stylist Andrew Barton, who said the hair should be blow dried and swept into a high ponytail and split into four sections.

These should each be backcombed once with a small bristle hair comb, smooth the surface and wrap the hair around the base of the pony to create a circular mound of hair and secure with Kirby grips.
