Let us all remember the 88th Annual Academy Awards on February 28th, 2016 as the night that Saoirse Ronan solidified her status as a member of the red carpet elite. The Best Actress Nominee (she's nominated for her starring role in Brooklyn, which we loved for all the vintage beauty moments, btw), showed up to the biggest night in Hollywood in full force and her whole look could have stopped traffic. It was that gorge.
The 22-year old starlet stepped out on the red carpet in a custom slinky, emerald, sequined Calvin Klein gown (which was a shout-out to the country where she was born, Ireland, with a perfectly coordinated emerald smoky eye.

Ronan's smoldering gaze had the perfect sultry sheen and her inky liner is to die for... It's almost impossible to look away from her breathtaking eyes. But when you finally did, all you could do is swoon over her high-impact ensemble.
Oh and her hair? We're obsessed with her carefree, tousled waves, too. To contrast the structure of her Calvin Klein Gown, celebrity hairstylist Adir Abergel gave her an undone blowout using John Frieda products. First, Adir used John Frieda Luxurious Volume Perfectly Full Mousse ($6; target.com) all over the roots on towel dried hair. Then, to get maximum volume, he air-dried Saoirse's strands with cold air, and then Adir used a medium-sized round brush.
Next step? Dividing Ronan's hair into two sections, wrapping each in velcro rollers, and allowing them to cool and set. Before removing the rollers, a generous dose of John Frieda Luxurious Volume Forever Full Hairspray ($7;walgreens.com) was added, and Adir then tousled the hair with a hairbrush that had a little more hairspray on it. Last steps? A teensy amount of back-combing for her sexy side-sweep and a little more hairspray.
If this is what Saoirse is capable of this early in her style maven status, we cannot wait what she does next.
