The formal ponytail is gorgeous if you have a face that can pull it off, as Olivia Wilde does. You'll want to curl hair so the ponytail has volume (or you can flat-iron it). Make sure you get a haircut beforehand if you flat-iron hair because any dead ends will be on display. Wrap a portion of hair around the ponytail holder and spritz a shine serum on hair so it looks super healthy.
This look is great with a dress that's not strapless. It's gorgeous on a halter dress.
