2016 is off to a strong start for Hollywood starlet Alicia Vikander. The star has already picked up two nominations for the Golden Globes on Sunday, thanks to her striking performances in The Danish Girl, in which she stars opposite Eddie Redmayne, and Ex-Machina.

The Swedish beauty has also been making waves on the red carpet in recent months, turning heads with her laidback chic hair and make-up looks – and we've rounded up some of our favourite so far…

Channel boho chic like Alicia and style your hair into a chic half updo with a middle parting, leaving the rest of your tresses to tumble down naturally. Complete the look with minimal make-up save for matte pink lipstick and a hint of mascara to get Alicia's laidback finish.

Forget the straighteners – beachy waves are here to stay as a red carpet classic, and Alicia nailed the trend, leaving her glossy brunette locks worn down in loose curls. A great look for the daytime, add a touch of glamour and recreate her look with pale pink lipstick and eyeliner.

Plaits are an easy, fuss-free way of adding a twist to any updo – we love Alicia's simple take on the trend with a side braid to complement her elegant chignon at the Venice Film Festival.
