Ponytails at the Golden Globes 2012

At last year's Golden Globes, ponytails reigned supreme, and this year, the trend is still kicking. Nicole Richie had perhaps one of the most talked-about styles of the evening, opting for a vintage-meets-modern coiffure with blunt bangs in the front. Sarah Michelle Gellar went for a similarly retro-themed look, her voluminized fall tossed up high at the crown. For Amanda Peet, a classic ponytail was all she needed for a gorgeously fresh style. So the next time you think about grabbing that hair elastic, look to these three for some chic inspiration.
