A Nod to Robin Wright's Gorgeous Style

Robin Wright is like fine wine; she gets better with every passing year. We first got a taste of her exquisite beauty in The Princess Bride, where she played the eponymous heroine and became the girl of every of boy's fantasy. And it would seem, like in the movie, that she too found her happily ever after with her then-husband Sean Penn. Alas, their romance went the way of most Hollywood relationships and their marriage dissolved in 2010.

While her ex-husband had a short-lived romance with much-younger woman Scarlett Johansson, Wright bounced back full force, and her reinvention is still going strong. She cut her long locks for a chic pixie 'do and began dating a man 14 years her junior, actor Ben Foster (the two became engaged earlier this year). And now that she's turning 48, her career is in full swing, too. She recently won a Golden Globe for her devious role in the critically acclaimed House of Cards. Just as we said, she's like a bottle of Château Margaux-rich, desirable and just getting better with age.
