Coco Jones is what we’d call a triple threat: A talented actress with a heavenly voice and a certified style icon. The Southern Belle has stolen our hearts both as Hillary Banks in the hit show “Bel Air,” and across the internet for her bubbly personality. Her show is underway with its third season, promising scandal, suspense, and, of course, Hillary’s stunning style choices.
Jones is a vision to watch in her current role, though she has been in the game for much longer. She organically built her musical career as she acted across several titles, including Disney’s “Let It Shine,” and showcased her soulful sound on her EP “What I Didn’t Do.” Now, she is carving her own lane in the industry with her unique beauty and talent.
From updos to long tresses, here are 12 times Coco Jones gave us ethereal beauty and endless material for our mood boards.
1. Braided Detail Clovers Homage
Simple, yet timeless. Jones recreates Gabrielle Union’s iconic character look from ‘Bring It On’ with this Clovers Homage. She spares no details, completing the style with mini soft scrunchies at the ends of her braids, one of the go-to accessories of the era.
2. Half Up Top-Knot
One of Coco Jones’ signature touches that we love is her go-to two-strand accent that frames her face. Here, she features this touch in a half-up look that pulls her hair into a top-knot, allowing the rest to flow down her back for a performance-ready ‘do.
3. Platinum Pink Barbie
Serving us Black Barbie realness, Coco switches the color up for the “creepin” music video shoot with a light pink install, complete with voluminous curls. This style is physical proof that she can rock any style she pleases and pull it off.
4. Crimped Waves
One of the best style hacks is adding some dimension and texture to a beautiful look, which is exactly what Jones does here. Here, waist-length tresses are effortlessly styled with crimped waves, adding just enough character to make for a fun and casual look.
5. Blunt Bob
You know we love a bob! One thing’s certain, and two’s for sure: Jones’ face card never declines. To emphasize this fact, she arrives at LaPointe’s NYFW show with a blunt, fashion-forward bob that accentuates her features and strikingly tops off her overall ensemble.
6. Bumped Ends
A tasteful touch on the classic side-part, Coco completes one of her VMA looks with a shoulder-length, straight style that flows into a sharp flip. This style exudes personality and flare, the ideal eye-catcher to set-off her fun wardrobe of the night.
7. Larger-Than-Life Chanel Homage
Pictured here: a real life-doll. Here, she perfectly executes another homage to a Black Beauty fave, with this rendition of Naomi Campbell’s 1992 Chanel look. With burgundy-tinted blown-out hair styled in two teased ponytails
8. Elegant Updo
All pinned up for her big night at the Grammys, the musician styles her hair in a beautiful updo, letting loose curls gently frame her face as she accepts her first Grammy Award. This look perfectly compliments her face, showcasing big congratulatory smiles all around.
9. Retro Bun Details
The sign of a true style icon is whether you can last the tests of time, and Miss Jones hasn’t met a style era she can’t pull off. This retro look featuring a trio of buns, complete with a detailed parted design, is the epitome of It-girl energy.
10. Accessorized Rapunzel Braid
For her Coachella cameo, she joins Renee Rapp on stage with a slickback knee-length braid studded with bedazzled hoops throughout. This creative look was such a fun way to spin a tried and true hairstyle, making it her own and giving us the innovative inspo we needed to spice up our own styles.
11. Goddess Braids
What’s a better way to channel that inner goddess than with goddess braids themselves? On her European getaway, Coco Jones tastefully styles her trendy goddess braids in a few ways, showing the versatility and elegance that braids can provide.
12. Classic Bussdown
There’s nothing like the classics. Our beauty icon is stunned with this sleek middle-part buss down, the perfect style to complete her neck-breaking courtside look.
