Reality TV. The beauty and fashion industries. Hollywood. Formula 1 racing? ICYMI, Kim Kardashian is now a fixture at Grand Prix races around the world thanks to her reported relationship with Ferrari driver Lewis Hamilton, and in true Kim fashion, she's bringing her beauty A-game to every race—including a very '90s hair accessory that looked right at home on the glamorous streets of Monaco.
Kardashian attended the Grand Prix of Monaco on June 7 to cheer on Hamilton, accompanied by her sister Khloé Kardashian, and instead of her signature long waves, she pulled her dark hair up in a messy twist and cinched it with the humble but currently trending claw clip. The clip itself was the exact same shade as her hair so it almost vanished into the hairstyle, creating a trompe l'oeil effect; depending on the angle, you couldn't even see it when you squinted! Kardashian left the front portions of her hair loose to frame her face with a romantic, easygoing energy.
The look was similar to the one she wore to watch the Super Bowl with Hamilton: simple but glamorous with a seductive softness. And a claw clip is also so practical; it's easy to pull your hair up and off your neck on a hot summer day! Kardashian finished off her race-day glam with soft rose-brown makeup and her favorite super-short nails manicured in a milky, ultra-subtle color.

The star isn't the only one bringing retro hair accessories to the forefront this summer. Last week, Olivia Rodrigo—who was born in 2003, mind you—threw it way back with a simple but very nostalgic side-parted hairstyle secured with one statement-making bobby pin. You don’t have to be a celeb to mimic their hairstyles, either; claw clips are everywhere at the drugstore, and if you're anything like us, you've probably got dozens of bobby pins scattered around every corner of your home. It's gonna be an extremely '90s-hair summer!
