Tessa Thompson is everything I’m trying to channel this summer. On July 11, the actress was photographed arriving at day 12 of Wimbledon, the illustrious annual tennis tournament held in London. A vision in black and white, everything from her chic strapless dress to her bow heels perfectly captured the kind of look I’m going for in this hot summer weather. The cherry on top? Her gorgeous goddess braids.
As is customary for the style, Thompson's hair was braided into traditional knotless box braids, with strands of loose, curly extensions woven throughout the length of each plait. She skipped any hair accessories or clips, letting an oversized pair of sunglasses and a gorgeous burgundy lip tint provide the pops of color in her ensemble.
