6 Celeb Trends You Can (and Should) Rock
Who cares about this one's new movie or that one's reality show - we're mostly loving celebs for their beauty and style ideas. Try these ASAP!
1. A statement necklace
AS WORN BY: Michelle Yeoh
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: A dramatic piece like this turns even a basic tee into an outfit. In fact, any simple top is the perfect blank canvas for a showstopping necklace. Our fave versions are chunky stones, multistrand metallics, and mixed-media combos.
PAIR IT WITH: Slicked-back hair. As with the clothes, you want to keep hair simple. Apply gel to damp hair and blow-dry it smooth. Pull hair back and spray it into place.

2. Winged eyes
AS WORN BY: Olivia Wilde
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: Smoky shadow shades are always sexy - and the little sweep up at the corners is like an instant eye lift. To get the look, choose an eyeshadow palette with four shades: the lightest goes under your brow bone, next lightest is for your lids, the second darkest is your "wing" shade, and the darkest is your liner.
PAIR IT WITH: A nude lip so your eyes stand out (anything bolder would be a distraction).

3. A long-sleeved cocktail dress
AS WORN BY: Cindy Crawford
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: You can really nail sexy-chic while keeping all the bits and pieces you may not want the world to see under wraps. Women who like to cover their arms (here's how to make them bare-able) are going to be lining up for this, but sexy is still the goal, so do show some skin. The dress should hit just above the knee - and no stockings, please!
PAIR IT WITH: Slinky, strappy heels and a glitzy clutch add happy style to a classically understated dress.

4. The curly bob
AS WORN BY: Charlize Theron
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: These curls convey an instant softness and romanticism - plus, they do wonders for your cheekbones! All you need to create the ringlets is a wide-barrel curling iron. After curling each section, pull the bottom of the curl and stretch it out as it cools to loosen it up.
PAIR IT WITH: Natural-looking makeup, which goes with the casual vibe of twirly curls. Try a pretty peach on cheeks and lids for a monochromatic look.

5. A floral dress
AS WORN BY: Tina Fey
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: A sheath dress in a modern floral is pretty, not prissy. Make sure it fits perfectly to avoid the upholstered-sofa effect.
PAIR IT WITH: Minimal accessories and a solid-color cardigan, which looks best on the shrunken side. Make the whole thing casual with delicate oxford flats for runaround days.

6. The NEXT Big Trend: The top bun
AS WORN BY: Jennifer Lopez
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: The high bun is so versatile: It's appropriate in the ballroom, at the ballet studio, and standing at the bathroom sink. The only difference is how tidy you make it, but anything goes. Well, almost anything: Never finish this look with a scrunchie!
