Hair Highlights

Halle Berry always rocks a version of this short, spiky style proving that natural beauty doesn’t need anything fancy to make jaws drop… though this Pucci dress is only adding to her red-carpet “wow” factor. (image: Halle Berry at NAACP Awards.

“It girl” Blake Lively looks like Californian royalty in sparkly Chanel at the brand’s dinner, thrown in her honor. Streaky blond highlights and a few haphazard strands add youth to her otherwise-polished ensemble. (Blake Lively at Chanel’s New York dinner.

I love how designer Rachel Roy wears a middle-parted, slicked-back pony for such a formal event. Feeling inspired for my next formal night out!

Zoe Saldana masters the “I’m-not-trying-too-hard” look in loose waves that are yanked out of a chic bun. If ever there were a time to look effortless, it’s at a fashion party in Paris.

I’ve always loved Chloe’s confidence in whatever she wears, beauty choices included. And if anyone can pull off a slicked-back “half-up” look reminiscent of the '80s, it’s the queen of downtown cool herself. Thigh-high stockings and a bow tie complete the unexpected ensemble.

I love watching Jennifer Hudson evolve into the red carpet goddess that she is right now (even after a recent baby!). The cascading hair is new for the star, and I'm hoping it's not just another stage in her glam journey.

Nicole Richie rocks a perfect top knot at Givenchy’s fashion show. Exposed dark roots, bold black liner and a leather dress fit right in with Parisian party code.
