Celebrity red carpet transformations

It's amazing what a couple of hours in hair and make-up can do for these normally low maintenance stars.

AGYNESS DEYN
Queen of East End casual with her bleached crop, baggy T-shirt and range of Dr. Martens boots, Agyness Deyn isn't what you'd call Hollywood glamorous, but slick back the hair and add a few Marc Jacobs accessories and her modelling glamour is restored.

CAREY MULLIGAN
Recently married Brit actress Carey Mulligan can best be described as hobo-chic in her spare time, but as soon as there's a red carpet in sight Miu Miu, Prada and Chanel are the order of the day.

DAKOTA FANNING
After a lifetime in the public eye Dakota Fanning has given up the ghost, knowing you can't look glamorous all day everyday. But at film premieres and awards ceremonies the 18-year-old has the red carpet look down pat with the likes of Marc Jacobs, Lanvin and Elie Saab in her red carpet repertoire.

ELLE FANNING
Like sister like sister. Dakota's younger sibling Elle knows how to crank it up a notch. She may be just 14 but she has the Rodarte sisters and Louis Vuitton dressing her every red carpet moment.

KIERA KNIGHTLEY
Chanelling chimney sweep-chic Kiera's grey wardrobe staples are lacklustre at best for this night out in London. But add a dash of gold Valentino and a sweep of professional make-up and hey presto! a red carpet star is born.

SARAH JESSICA PARKER
Oft seen plodding around New York's Soho in her Ugg boots, a puffer jacket, sunglasses and a borderline rasta-style hat, with one or two of her brood hanging off her arm, Sarah Jessica Parker adds a sprinkling of Carrie Bradshaw glamour to her wardrobe when there's a glittering event in town.

Style tips from the week’s best dressed: week 3, 2012

Need help putting a look together? We've rounded up the best-dressed girls of the week who can teach us a thing or two...

A sprinkle of fur can up-style any outfit
Furry accessories add a touch of glamour without having to change your whole outfit - perfect for grunge princesses like Zoe Kravitz.

Tights and open-toe sandals can be a winning formula
So long as your tights are thick and black and your sandals are chunky, statement platforms like Alexa's. Avoid stiletto heels at all costs.

Break the rules
Shoes for a cocktail party, cosy cardigan for the couch, sleeveless belted trench for the office, sunglasses for the beach and a beanie for the slopes. Sounds so wrong, but on Sarah Jessica Parker it's just SO right. Don't be afraid the mix up your options or your textures.

Channel the Twenties trend via the medium of accessories
Don't see yourself in a gold beaded flapper dress this season? Nod to the Gatsby Glamour trend sweeping the catwalks with a headband like Fearne Cotton.

A little leopard goes a long way
Just ask Kate Moss, whose classic '60s vibe leopard print coat lends her otherwise unremarkable outfit an instant rock 'n' roll edge.

If it's see through, give them something to look at
We love the way that budding actress Kelsey Chow eschewed plain and practical underwear to hide her modesty under her sheer dress. This polka dot bustier turned a 'meh' in to 'wow'.

Don't be afraid to pop
If you're going for colour, you may as well go for it big time. Follow Kirsten Dunst's lead and keep everything else minimal and understated.

Pile on your pastels
The more stylish Hilton sister, Nicky, showed she was ahead of the spring curve by mixing a plethora of pastels for a super-chic da

Take the edge off a vampish evening look with soft, daytime accessories
Velvet and satin were on the menu for Stella McCartney when she attended Kate Moss's birthday dinner earlier this week. But the ever-stylish fashion designer knows better than to overkill the look with evening accessories, opting instead for a soft grey daytime clutch and chunky, dusky pink scarf.

Wear something white at night
When red wine is in the equation it's easy to reach for black, but take a tip from fashion forward Tilda who stood out from the crowd in head-to-toe snow at the W Magazine pre-Golden Globes party.

Double bag it
Why take one handbag, when you can take two? This is a trend we're starting to see more and more so make like Whitney Port and multiply your arm candy.

Sex And The City Movie Premiere

The ladies of Sex And The City were out in London at Leicester Square to the world premiere of the much awaited Sex And The City Movie.

Sarah Jessica Parker choose to wrap herself in green. The strapless, chiffon, Alexander McQueen dress was cute for Carrie Bradshaw although she went a little overboard with the flowered headpiece by Philip Treacy.

Kim Cattrall was wearing a red, off the shoulder, dress by Vivienne Westwood.

Cynthia Nixon choose the best dress for her tall slender body type. Nixon looked amazing in her black, floor length Calvin Klein.

Kristen Davis opted for a vintage red dress and nude peep toe pumps.

Get Sarah Jessica Parker's Layered Look For Less!

We spotted Sarah Jessica Parker on set as Carrie Bradshaw clad in this look, that while being totally weird, it still somehow works.

Carrie Bradshaw's signature style can be hard for everyone else to pull off; the mixed patterns, the layers, the shoes - all of these take guts to wear all at once. To make this look your own, I suggest borrowing one piece from a "Carrie" ensemble and incorporating it into your own basics.

Try wearing the long cardigan with jeans, or the shoes with your favorite a-line skirt. Trendy pieces can add a jolt of serious style into your everyday looks.

Get the Carrie look:

Start with a great patterned skirt or tunic, like this one from Alice Temperley's collection for Target. At only $34.99 it's a steal! Available at target.com.

Mix and match patterns like Carrie did by adding a stripy layer on top. Check out this paper thin turtle neck from JCrew, it's only $42! Available at jcrew.com.

Top the look off with a long, lightweight cardigan; this one is a dead ringer for Carrie's pricier cardi. From the Simply Vera Wang collection it's on sale right now for $33.60 at kohls.com.
