Celebrities constantly switch up their hairstyles, but we love the ones who look classy but stunning no matter what styles they pull on the red carpet. Aside from model-worthy cheekbones and alluring eyes, actress Olivia Wilde has also got the fabulous hairstyles and Covergirl makeup looks to make her our girl crush.
Here are six times Olivia inspired us to switch up our hairstyles:
1. When She Ponied Up
A ponytail makes you look instantly youthful. Plus, it lets you show off your earrings. Olivia’s choppy bangs and messy ponytail is a less fussy take on the ladylike look presented by her dress. A simple cat-eye flick and coral blush is all she needs to top off the girly look.
2. When She Slipped on A Headband
The mother-of-one has come a long way since her O.C. days of over-tweezed brows and flared low-slung jeans in the 2000s. These days, she favours classic feminine looks when she’s on the red carpet, relying on flirty cat-eye makeup to enhance her much talked about eyes. (There’s even a Facebook page dedicated to her eyes, in case you didn’t know.) A headband and matte red lips play up the sexy sixties vibe of her sheer polka dotted blouse.
3. When She Rocked Ombre Waves
Ombre is still very much trending. And Olivia’s ombre waves have got us drooling. And boho waves are an effortlessly glam touch to a sleek black dress that shows off her golden tan. The Covergirl model also added a berry pink pout to the mix, brightening up the dress.
4. When She Went Sleek
Who can forget that gorgeous sequinned Marchesa dress Olivia wore to the 2011 Golden Globes? But that aside, her wispy bangs and honey-brown locks also gained appreciation for adding some girlish charm to her glammed up dress. For a girl-next-door look, this is one hairstyle that is easy enough to maintain and make you appear approachable.
5. When She Had a Shaggy Bob
Sometimes, Olivia likes to edge up her look with sultry lined eyes and a messy cut. Her choppy bob here draws attention to her killer cheekbones, framing her face and downplaying the squareness. And is it just us or does she bear some resemblance to Resident Evil star Milla Jovovich here?
6. When she Had a Top Knot
For formal black-tie events, you can’t go wrong with a polished top-knot. Olivia pulls out all the stops in this sleek black halter dress that she adorns with gold accessories — a clutch, bangles, and a choker — finishing off with smoky eye makeup and a top-knot that keeps things classy.
