No, Ryan Gosling didn’t bring girlfriend Eva Mendes as his date to the Gangster Squad premiere in Los Angeles Monday night, but he did bring his mom … who was wearing Mendes’s clothes. No, really.

“My mother’s wearing all my girlfriend’s clothes,” Gosling confirmed to E! News of his mom’s ruched dress, paisley trench and statement necklace. “I’m wearing Eva Mendes,” Donna reiterated, adding, “She let me raid her closet.”

Upon close inspection, we can totally see Mendes’s influence in Donna’s outfit. The short, sexy ruched gray dress is something the actress would totally wear, and we wouldn’t be surprised if we’d spotted her in those classic strappy black sandals before.

Check Out Eva Mendes’s Crazy Curly Hairdo

We thought perms were a thing of the past (we’re not the only ones who tried the treatment in the ’90s, right?). But Eva Mendes is bringing back the style … at least for her latest role.

She plays a woman with seriously tight curls in the HBO film Clear History (also starring Kate Hudson and Jon Hamm). The somewhat wild ringlets are seemingly highlighted, hitting the star at her shoulders. And when we spotted this shot of her on location in Rockport, Mass., we just couldn’t keep it to ourselves.

The curly look is a major departure from Mendes’s usual soft and feminine hairstyle, which she either wears wavy and voluminous or straightened. And while the actress probably doesn’t need us to tell her, we just want to go on record saying that as soon as she’s done shooting, she should go back to her natural hair. Tell us: What do you think of Mendes’s ultra-curly ‘do?

Weekend Outfit Inspiration: Eva Mendes’s Downtown Daytime Look

Summer is slipping away, but this weekend’s forecast calls for sunshine, seasonal temperatures … and style!

To help you figure out what to wear while you’re out on Saturday and Sunday, we’ve taken a page from Eva Mendes, who caught our eyes this week with her deceptively dressy look.

The actress’s T-shirt and skirt — which she wore to walk her pup through Los Angeles — are casual, basic pieces you might have in your closet, too. But what really brings the outfit together are the star’s smart accessories: the neutral belt, wedges and cross-body bag, plus her bright shades. (Her sweet updo helps, too.) Though nothing she’s wearing is so super-fancy, the accessories make what could be a schlumpy outfit somewhat upscale.

If you want to wear something similar this weekend (click here to peruse our looks for less), be sure to at least wear a belt, and go for some semi-fancy footwear — no flip-flops allowed! Then Tweet your outfit to us @StyleWatchMag; we’d love to see the results. Tell us: What are your weekend plans?

When your dog’s gotta go, your dog’s gotta go … no matter what you’re wearing. But some stars just happen to look extra fabulous when tackling pooch patrol.

Take Lady Gaga (above, left), who wore an off-the-shoulder sweatshirt, leather leggings, black heels and a hat while toting her pup through Vienna last week. Then there’s Amanda Seyfried (above, right), who went straight from a New York workout to a walk with Finn while wearing her gym clothes.

Would You Wear Bright, Billowy Pants Like Eva and Beyoncé?

When Beyoncé wears something, everyone takes note. But when Beyoncé and Eva Mendes wear the same thing? We call that the start of a trend. Exhibit A: In just one week, both of the stars were caught sporting bright billowy pants.

Beyoncé was spotted taking over the streets of Paris with husband Jay-Z and baby Blue Ivy in a boho-inspired zig-zag printed Carven top, pointy-toe pale pink Christian Louboutin pumps and breezy electric-pink Vionnet pants.

While catching a flight with beau Ryan Gosling, Mendes rocked similar pants — hers were electric green by Alice + Olivia — teamed with a simple white T-shirt, ivory cardigan and a neutral oversized bag.

Our final verdict on the bold bottom trend? We can’t get enough of it! It’s a fun, fresh take on a summer pant. You can dress them up with a pair of killer heels and cropped blazer, or team them with cute summer sandals and a T-shirt.

What do you think of the crazy-colored pant trend? Would you wear them? Vote below!

How Eva Mendes Got Haggard for ‘Girl in Progress’

Just because she’s considered a bombshell (and dates Ryan Gosling) doesn’t mean Eva Mendes feels the need to be glamorous — especially in her new film, Girl in Progress.

In the movie (which hits select theaters May 11), Mendes plays a single mom who balances work, bills — and an affair with a married man. “Before each take I kept asking [director Patricia Riggen] ‘Do I look bad enough?!’” Mendes told PEOPLE Wednesday during a press event in L.A.. “I tell my daughter in the movie, ‘I’m tired baby.’ So I better look exhausted, you know?”
