Cat eye + half-up, half-down waves Where: New Year's Eve dinner party
Why: I chose this look because Diane Kruger makes blonde waves, a slight cat eye, and pretty pink lips look so effortless. It looks fancy without seeming "overly done." Also, subtle touches of rosy pink are a nice alternative if you're not into the whole deep red lip. -- Emily Popp, Assistant Editor
Get the look: Mist a heat protectant on dry hair and wrap 2-inch sections around a curling iron, stopping at about eye level. Create a side part and pull back the top half of your hair, pinning behind the ear at the crown. Finish with a shine spray such as Bumble and Bumble Shine On Finishing Spray, $15.
Apply Benefit Benetint, $29, to cheeks for a rosy glow. Then, starting at the inner corner of your eyes and working out, line your top lash line with Hourglass Calligraphy Liquid Eye Liner, $32. Once you reach the outer corner of your eye, create upward diagonal for the wing effect. Finally, apply Illamasqua Lipstick in Bright Bubblegum, $24, to lips.
