We’ve already got Allison Williams skin envy, style envy and job envy.

And after spotting her at the Robin Hood Foundation Gala in N.Y.C., we added hair and makeup envy to our list as well.

But while we can’t get her access to Naeem Khan and Oscar de la Renta dresses, we can copy her pitch-perfect hair and makeup look, thanks to tips from her pros.

First up, her hair, done by Benoit Moeyaert at N.Y.C.’s Marie Robinson salon. After combing Phyto mousse through her wet hair for texture, Moeyart blew her hair out with a round brush.

“While it was still warm, I rolled sections around two fingers (about an inch wide and an inch-and-a-half high) and pinned them with clips,” he tells PEOPLE. After letting her hair cool in those “pin curls,” he shook the hair out and brushed it all out, then curled it again by using a curling iron in alternating directions.

What Is Sexy? The Victoria’s Secret Angels Share Their 2013 Picks

May/13/2013 at 08:25 AM ET


Quick: Which star has the sexiest bikini body? The sexiest smile? How about the sexiest sense of humor?

Victoria’s Secret (and their team of Angels) answered all those questions and more in the exclusive first-look video above — and we’re inclined to trust their judgment. After all, these women get paid quite a bit to essentially have a Ph.D. in sexiness. (Spoiler alert: the answers to the above questions are Rihanna, Zoë Saldana and Jennifer Lawrence, respectively.)

Also on the list are several repeat winners: Amanda Seyfried, last year’s “Sexiest Lips,” took home “Sexiest Hair” this year. Jessica Chastain was upgraded from “Sexiest Smile” to “Sexiest Actress.” And Beyoncé made her third consecutive appearance on the list, this year winning the title of “Sexiest Songstress.”

To find out which stars won “Sexiest Curves,” “Sexiest Summer Glow” and “Sexiest TV Cast” — as well as which categories were awarded to celebs like Giuliana Rancic, Hayden Panettiere and Blake Lively, watch the video and check out the full list below.

In our weekly round-up of what we’re seeing sizzle (and fizzle) on the red carpet, we saw bracelets get swapped out for plain ol’ wristwatches, an abundance of lovely, slicked-back strands — and one instance of confused-weather footwear that we think can be retired right about now.

Up: Elegant ponytails. Perhaps blame it on the transitional weather, but plenty of stars this week opted to smooth their hair back into elegant, classic ponytails and not risk the frizz factor. Zoë Saldana had one of our favorites, but Julianne Hough, Olivia Munn, Miranda Kerr and Heidi Klum have all worn their hair tightly pulled back into a pretty, simple style.

Jennifer Aniston: We All Want Somebody Else’s Hair

We’d have thought Jennifer Aniston could do pretty much anything with her hair, but it turns out even the world’s most enviable mane has its limits.

“We all want somebody else’s hair,” Aniston told PEOPLE at an N.Y.C. Living Proof event, citing Gisele Bündchen as the star whose tresses she envies, and adding “I also love Kate Moss‘s hair. It’s that rolled-out-of-bed look. Somehow she can wear a couture dress and just have that. I’ve tried to do that but it doesn’t work.”

Aniston adds that no matter how many times she asks her longtime stylist Chris McMillan to give her that hair, “he’ll do whatever he wants to do.” That’s why — even though she takes care of it with Living Proof’s Restore mask, and she’ll go anywhere to get it washed — only McMillan is allowed to go near it with scissors.

And we can’t say that we blame her for being a little paranoid, considering some of the past disasters she tells us she’s had to contend with. As a kid, “I’d only had mullets! Or those haircuts when you were a kid and you’d get those crazy, like, long at the front and shaved at the back,” she says. “Oh, I just learned so many lessons from my youth of what not to do.”

Who has the boldest hair in Hollywood these days?

Well, okay, Miley Cyrus, but a close second seems to be Kerry Washington.

The Scandal star isn’t afraid to switch up her hair color quickly, going from her ordinary dark mocha strands to purple streaks at Monday’s Met Gala to her newest look, rich red highlights, at last night’s premiere of her film Peeples — all within a week.

Jordin Sparks Has Bangs! What Do You Think?

Jordin Sparks has gone where few curly girls dare to go: She’s cut some brand-new bangs.

She debuted her cute new cut at an N.Y.C. event for a Crystal Light-sponsored world’s largest game of Words With Friends, wearing them with an appropriately sassy ensemble consisting of liquid leggings, a coral top and leopard-print cropped jacket (weekend outfit inspiration?)

While we’ve been skeptical about other celebrities’ new fringe in the past, this cut seems like the real deal: It’s choppy and wavy, and appears to be her natural texture, just blown out.

RELATED PHOTOS: Check out even more jaw-dropping star hair makeovers here!

We are absolutely loving the look on Sparks — and judging by that big smile, she is too — but we’re going to want a report back from the star in a few weeks after she’s encountered the deadly combination of curly bangs plus humidity.

Tell us: What do you think of Sparks’s new bangs?
