Dua Lipa is making a strong case for messy, tousled waves, and she’s been really convincing lately.
The singer is currently in New York City for the weekend as she’s set to perform a string of shows at Madison Square Garden during her Radical Optimism tour. On her first day in the city, she was spotted running errands in a slightly unbuttoned, striped, white button down blouse along with a charcoal gray maxi skirt. She rounded out her look by styling her hair in casual, slightly-tousled, beachy waves, and I’m convinced that no one has ever looked this cool while running errands and galavanting around the city.

Lipa isn’t the only celebrity to be embracing her waves these days. Last week, Jessica Alba stepped out in New York City during Fashion Week and showed off her bronde hair, which was styled in beach waves with a middle part. Katie Holmes has also been spotted out and about this summer wearing slightly messy waves.
