Whether you're enjoying a fun day out or heading to a fancy restaurant in the evening, getting ready for a date makes for a great excuse to try new hair and make-up looks. From Cheryl Fernandez-Versini to Angelina Jolie, we take a look at the stars' best beauty looks for major inspiration…
If you're busy in the day and not left with much time to get ready, take note from Angelina Jolie, the queen of effortless elegance. The star opted simply for shimmering eyeshadow, a hint of mascara and a slick of nude lipgloss for instant wow factor.
If you're after a glamorous look for the evening but want a softer take on the traditional smokey eye make-up and red lipstick combo, follow in Cheryl Fernandez-Versini's footsteps and opt for pretty pink shades. We love her subtle shimmering eyeshadow paired with statement hot pink lips for an edgy and feminine alternative.
If a daytime date is on the cards, then Jennifer Aniston's look may be the answer. Use just a hint of eyeliner and mascara to bring out your eyes, teamed with a matte foundation and nude glossy lips – complete the look by wearing your hair down in a sleek and straight style.
Channel old Hollywood with Amber Heard's breathtaking look. If you have long hair then curl your locks and then tuck them under the top sections of the rest of your hair for a faux bob style. Go for statement matte lipstick but keep the rest of your make-up to a bare minimum to let the colour really pop.
If you're going for both a day and evening out, opt for a slightly tousled low ponytail like Alessandra Ambrosio. Not only is this fuss-free style really easy to do, but you can simply up the wow factor in the evening by pairing it with a statement lip.
It can be difficult to find new ways to style short hair, but Jennifer Lawrence gave us major hair envy with her striking chignon at the Golden Globes. Recreate the look by sweeping your hair into buns at the nape of your neck and securing with grips.
We love Holly Willoughby's soft and pretty make-up, ideal for a chic daytime look. Stick to neutral and pale pink shades – contouring may be too heavy for this look but if you want to enhance your features, strobing makes for a great alternative. If you want to go for a touch of extra glamour, add a slick of black eyeliner.
Michelle Keegan gave us serious beauty envy when she stepped out with her glossy locks swept into a sleek and chic updo. Add a touch of edge to the look like the actress by rocking statement glittering eyeshadow and long eyelashes (try false lashes to get the full effect).
Heading somewhere fancy for the night? We're big fans of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's slicked back bun paired with statement red lips and a hint of mascara, making for an elegant finish.
Braids are a huge trend and Olivia Palermo proved they work for both day and night when she stepped out rocking a plaited chignon during New York Fashion Week. Part your hair down the middle and then separate the top sections. Take the left top section and braid, then repeat on the right side. Next, sweep the two plaits and the rest of your hair into a bun. Pair with smokey eye make-up for ultimate evening glamour.
