Chic: Lesson 1 - Red Carpet Glamour

Charlize Theron is the epitome of modern day glamour. She manages to look every bit the Hollywood A-Lister that she is rising to be. Here, on the red carpet in Berlin earlier this week, Miss Theron shows that it doesn’t have to be floor-length and ruffled to drop jaws. And look at the shoes!

Let’s start with hair and make-up, effortlessly messy hair that no doubt took a team of five, several hours is a world away from the overstraightened extensions so often flouted at premieres. Her make up is flawless, making her look ageless and natural (no mean feat). The dress is different, place it on Nicole Kidman and it would look wrong, put it on Charlize and it looks fabulous. The high neck, the bare shoulders and that puff ball all work together, team it with her even bronzed glow (not protect your eye orange) and the overall effect is just perfect.

The star of Hancock manages to steal the limelight without looking like it was ever her intention and here at chictique we applaud such chic-ness!
