Underwood's flirty flip works on short to long hair. To get this look, bust out your hot rollers -- the longer your hair is, the larger your rollers should be (try Conair Instant Heat Rollers, $14.99, which come in a variety of sizes). Roll all of your hair up into the curlers and let them set for 10 minutes before taking them out. Next, secure hair half up using bobby pins, allowing a few face-framing wisps to fall free.

Marion Cotillard
Create smoky hot eyes like Cotillard's for a sultry date-night look. This look is a cinch to achieve if you use a smoky eye kit like Tarte Peep Show Smokey Eye Palette, $37, which includes all of the brushes, eyeliner and eyeshadows you'll need. Start sweeping shadow from lashes to creases and along your lower lash lines. Then line your eyes and inner rims with pencil liner. Finish with multiple coats of mascara.

Amanda Seyfried
Bring back your barrettes to create this romantic hairstyle. Slick back one side of your hair and place your clip right over your ear for a '40s vibe. Pick up a pearled or jeweled accessory like these from Karina, $3-$12.75, for an extra-glam finish.

Kerry Washington
Cupid called; he wants to know where Washington got her rosy glow. These pinks cheeks are so pretty on a dark complexion like Washington's. Blend bright cream blush like Rimmel London Blush in Santa Rosa, $3.50, on the apples of your cheeks. For a flawless application, smile in the mirror and blend in circular motions immediately following your foundation.

Naomi Watts
If feminine and romantic is what you're after, try Watts's ballerina bun -- it works on both thick and fine hair. The key to this look is the wispy, imperfect quality. To create this slightly rough texture, rake a texturizing product like Umberto Texturizer Cream, $9.99, through dry hair before pinning it up.
