See Gwyneth's effortless changing style through the years.
Gwyneth has maintained her style credentials and glowing beauty down the years, without a blot on the landscape. See how she's elevated herself to style and beauty queen here.
The up-do
The early nineties is just a hop, skip and a jump away from the late eighties and in this picture it shows. A high up-do, combined with dodgy pale and purple eyeshadow and deep red lips was not Gwynnie's finest hour. But her wrinkle-free, flawless complexion still shines through, proving the star can transcend the passing trends. http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/celebrity/a-z/163095/gwyneth-paltrow.html
The uber-cool crop
All in the name of her art, Gwynnie went for the chop back in 1997 for her role in hit movie Sliding Doors. She kept her pixie crop when the cameras stopped rolling and with her slender features, the girl can pull it off. Short, blonde and bold, this was a winning cut for Gwyneth she bagged Brad Pitt with it, after all. http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/celebrity/a-z/163095/gwyneth-paltrow.html

Poker straight perfection
Fast forward a year and Gwyneth has grown her hair to reveal a super-sleek, poker straight barnet for the premiere of Shakespeare In Love. The silky locks and smokey eyes told Hollywood she meant business and it seems the look paid off after Gwyneth was awarded an Oscar for Best Actress for her role in the movie. http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/celebrity/a-z/163095/gwyneth-paltrow.html
Raven beauty
Goodbye butter-wouldn't-melt Gwyneth, hello dark raven beauty. The actress turned brilliant brunette to promote The Talented Mr Ripley and once again proves she can pull off a myriad of looks. Here she chooses dark eyeliner to accentuate her piercing blue eyes and a deep lip shade. Together with her new dark curls, Gwyneth nails gothic glamour. http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/celebrity/a-z/163095/gwyneth-paltrow.html

Cascading curls
Gwyneth's bold brunette shade didn't last long. By the time she took to the red carpet for the 77th Academy Awards, she had reverted to the cascading blonde waves we know and love. A blush cheek shade and glossy lips worked wonders to set off her milky skin and nude-coloured frock. http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/celebrity/a-z/163095/gwyneth-paltrow.html
Sexy señorita
The style chameleon took another fashion avenue to promote her 2005 movie, Proof. A glossy chic chignon, flawless complexion and a slick of bright red lipstick, combined with a black evening gown and chunky gold accessories gave Gwynnie the sexy señorita look you never thought a blonde could achieve. http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/celebrity/a-z/163095/gwyneth-paltrow.html
Glow girl
It's enough to make pregnant women around the world hiss with envy as Gwyneth graced the red carpet for the 2006 Golden Globes simply glowing with three months to go before little Moses arrived. Gwyneth's whole look is softer with sexy, tousled hair pinned in to the nape of her neck, rosy cheeks and pared down eye make-up. http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/celebrity/a-z/163095/gwyneth-paltrow.html
Mary Jane
By September 2006 Gwyneth is the proud mum of two and plans to get back to business the business of movie making. She has ditched the soft tendrils and rosy cheeks for a stylish headband to sweep back her mane. Tanned, glowing skin and light gold lipstick completes the super-sophisticated look. http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/celebrity/a-z/163095/gwyneth-paltrow.html
Blonde bombshell
April 2008 saw Gwyneth in a whole new light. Her vertiginous heels and thigh-skimming dresses hit every style page across the world and confirmed that Gwyneth was indeed bringing sexy back. Her cropped, tousled locks had women everywhere rushing for the latest cut. http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/celebrity/a-z/163095/gwyneth-paltrow.html
Super sleek
Gwyneth continued her reign as queen of the style stakes as she promoted Iron Man earlier this year. We saw hit after hit on the red carpet and here Gwynnie proved she's not afraid to experiment with her style, choosing a black, wide-legged Stella McCartney jumpsuit to accompany her super sleek long bob. http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/celebrity/a-z/163095/gwyneth-paltrow.html
