STYLE STUDY: RACHEL MCADAMS

We don't aim to condense the broad talent that is Rachel McAdams to a singular film, but there was a definite point of origin for her trek to stardom in the instant-classic The Notebook. With some parallels in memory-inhibited epic love, it's no wonder there is a lot of buzz surrounding McAdams upcoming romantic film The Vow. Lucky for us, McAdams has been out helping generate said buzz with appearances promoting her new film in a crop of feminine frocks, flirty prints, and modern touches peppered throughout.

McAdams' style is often no-frills, straightforward dressing with her beauty serving as the punctuation mark. She often makes bold choices with her makeup via a brightly painted pout, or smoky eye makeup, and once a few years ago (and ahead of the curve) some pink highlights. No matter her look, like the fictional leading men of her films, it's safe to say we're enamored.
