Claire Danes’ Rules for Looking Good

From angst-y teen to Romeo’s Juliet to Emmy winner, she’s done it all—gorgeously. Now she’s sharing her tricks for nailing that whole brainy-beauty thing.

Its OK to feel pretty Next Slide

It’s OK to feel pretty.

“When I was young, my fear was that you had to be clever or beautiful. But I realized that I can be as attractive as I wish to be and as substantial.”

Every blah day needs blush.

“When I’m feeling tired or cranky, I’ll put on a little more blush or gloss to jar myself into a happier state. And my heels will be a little higher!”

Guys want to see you.

“My husband [Hugh Dancy] is always arguing for me to wear less makeup.”

Don’t be lazy about haircuts.

“When I start putting my hair in a bun a little too frequently, I realize I need to drag myself to the salon and get a cut.”

    Met Gala: The best theme dressing throughout the years

    Each spring we look forward to the opulent red-carpet display that takes place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s annual Costume Institute Gala and the dresses that will grace its steps the first Monday in May. The evening is never short on grandeur, but there’s always a few artistically minded guests who go the extra mile and dress with the year’s exhibit wholeheartedly in mind—donning a look that not only impresses but more than tips its perfectly considered hat to the theme. From Hamish Bowles’ tartan tuxedo in homage to Alexander McQueen to Kate Moss in a gold-lame Marc Jacobs frock and matching turban embodying the concept of Model as Muse, we pay tribute to those who creatively and elegantly elevate the dress code.
