We loved the fact that Academy-Award Best Actress Winning star Lupita Nyong’o decided to wear her hair in cornrows and a braided updo while attending the 2015 Screen Actor’s Guild awards this year.

It complemented her natural beauty and svelte shape and the gorgeous deep v neckline Pre-fall 2015 multi-colored Elie Saab gown, worn with Fred Leighton earrings. I loved it and thought it was a complex yet still simple and elegant complete stand out look. And as a fan, wearer and advocate for braids, I was uber psyched to see the 2014 Best Actress Academy Award winner in cornrows and a braided bun. The Twelve Years a Slave star’s make up was everything.
