It only takes a few seconds to clip in a sparkly barrette or slip on a bright headband, but the impact lasts all night. Here, Alessandra Ambrosio layers Missoni for Target headbands at the brand's pop-up shop on September 7, 2011 in New York City.

Asymmetrical Looks
you can barely pick which guy to hang with, let alone what type of style to rock, you'll love off-center looks that let you experiment with proportion. Try a pixie cut like the one Ashlee Simpson sported in Beverly Hills, California on September 17, 2011. Or sweep your tresses over to one shoulder, and gather loose locks into a side ponytail, bun, or braid.

Textured Tresses
Pull off Cali-cool swagger by rocking big, beachy waves. To achieve, simply load up on texturizing products or skip a shampoo session (or two!). Styling Note: Ombre tips can really make coils pop. We like Leighton Meesters fade-out strands at the 2011 MTV Movie Awards on June 5, 2011 in Universal City, California.

Ballerina Buns
Topknots are the easiest, chicest way to conceal a bad hair day. Whether you opt for a look that's sexy and messy or polished and glossy, make gel, hairspray, and bobby pins your best friends. Were sure Katie Holmes used all three tools to look so effortlessly cool at the 2011 Emmy Awards in Los Angeles, California.

Half-Up, Half-Down
Don't overlook this classic, flattering hairdo. You get the best of both worldslayered pieces stay off your face, and loose ends still brush your shouldersplus you can get creative. We love Dianna Agrons ultra-glam teased mane at a Golden Globe Awards post-party on January 16, 2011 in Beverly Hills, California.

Braids
Make day-old hair last one extra evening by plaiting greasy strands. Pull them up into a high ponytail, rock a pinned-up milk-maid-esque hair wreath, or try a loose, trendy fishtail-braid look. Beyoncé's minimal 'do balances her glittery, diva getup at the Beyoncé Pulse fragrance launch on September 21, 2011 in New York City.

Chic Chignons
There's nothing prom-like about these nape-of-the-neck twists. Gala-goers will adore this subdued French style, which allows your makeup and gown to steal the spotlight. Paris Hilton amps up her demure look with volumized roots as she poses at a Golden Globes after-party on January 16, 2011 in Beverly Hills, California.

Sleek and Straight
Grab your glossing serum and flatiron to create this universally flattering style. Then, all you have to do is decide if you want to rock a center-, side-, or uneven part style. Leighton Meester shows off her shiny, pin-straight strands and blunt bangs on September 20, 2011 in New York City.

Posh Ponytails
Juxtapose a party dress with this sporty, all-American style. Bonus? Its a stylish fail-safe for rainy or snowy days, too. We like how Taylor Swift accents her updo with tendrils at the 2011 Teen Choice Awards on August 7, 2011 in Universal City, California.

Loose Curls
Blame it on the Dutchess' bouncy blowouts. Full, shiny waves have been spotted on countless Hollywood It girls since the royal wedding. Even if you don't have curling tools, you can achieve this look using a flatiron. We bet thats what Kate Middleton did to get this look seen on September 29, 2011 in Sutton, Greater London.

Retro Looks
Stand out by adding a dose of old Hollywood glam to your regular 'do. These starlets exuded elegance with S-waves, teased tresses, and glossy curls. We love Evan Rachel Woods 1940s bombshell pixie at the 2011 Emmy Awards in Los Angeles, California.
