Happy 27th birthday Leighton Meester! Take a look back at the Gossip Girl star's best beauty looks


April 10, 2013

Having transformed from the bubbly blonde who walked onto the set of Gossip Girl in 2007,  Leighton Meester, 27, is now one of the most glamorous brunettes in Hollywood. This will come as little surprise having played the show's style queen, Blair Waldorf for five years running where Leighton has since shown an flawless sense of fashion both on and off set.


Embracing her character's flawless taste in both fashion and beauty, Leighton has also never been one to shy away from a daring new look over the years. Adopting a range of hairstyles from blunt fringes to an on-trend ombre colouring, the actress is also a renowed fan of bold lipsticks which are always impeccably applied in true Blair style. 

However, unlike her shopaholic counterpart the star, who recently started dating former OC actor, Adam Brody, has said that her day to day make-up is kept simple with just a slick of high-street lip balm: "My makeup bag is so minimal" said Leighton, adding "I always have a little lip tint with me, like Burt's Bees." Nevertheless, in the spotlight Leighton is always sure to impress with a thoughtfully coordinated outfit and matching beauty look. 

Recently rumoured to star alongside Robert Downey Jnr and Billy Bob Thornton in a new dramatic comedy production, The Judge, we just can't wait to see what she'll be wearing at the premiere's red carpet.
