Penelope Cruz Has the Exact Hair Color Everyone Wants Right Now

“Bronde” isn’t a new term when it comes to hair color—it’s been used by colorists for years—but everyone’s suddenly using it as we head into fall 2015. Still not sure what exactly bronde looks like, even though you know it’s a blonde/brown combo? Well take a look at Penelope Cruz, who’s the walking embodiment of bronde beauty right now.

At a press event in Madrid yesterday, Cruz’s elbow-length bronde mane was her statement accessory against an equally sexy black dress. See how the shade could be called dark blond OR brunette depending on the light, and yet it’s subtly blended versus ombre or streaked? That’s bronde done to perfection. This one is SO going in our fall hair color inspiration files.
