Emma Roberts

Age: 26

Breakout role: While Emma has been in the business for quite some time, her role as snotty sorority sister Chanel (#1) Oberlin on Fox’s Scream Queens is her star-making turn.

Why we love her: The niece of iconic actress Julia Roberts can go from a classic t-shirt and jeans to Gucci dresses in the drop of a hat. We’d describe her style as simple and sassy! Give this girl a comfy sweater and a good book and she’s good to go. From bomber jackets and leather skirts to striped cropped tops and floral dresses, Emma has a way of putting together outfits that equally show off her sexy and playful sides.

Age: 28

Sara Hyland

Age: 26

Zosia Mamet

Age: 29

Breakout role: She plays high-strung Shoshanna Shapiro on HBO’s Girls.

Why we love her: The outfits worn by Shoshanna on the HBO comedy might be considered quirky, but her actual style is the complete opposite. Don’t be surprised if paparazzi catch her wearing more defined pieces like button-up tops and pussy-bow blouses. She also can’t get enough of ruffles or beautiful embroidery.

Mixing bold patterns and bright colors is her specialty. Whether she’s playing up classic denim overalls with feminine bell sleeves or rocking a pantsuit Hillary Clinton would be jealous of, Yara does it with ease!

Why we love her: The Canadian-born actress, model and author can best be described as Cali-girl sexy. You’ll typically find her in a romper, jumpsuit, skirt or dress, all with an elegant loose-fitting flow. Shay also doesn’t mind hitting the streets or red carpet in a skin-tight dress with ample cleavage, all while wondering where she’s going to buy her next slice of pizza (her favorite food). Expect to find everything from Givenchy purses to Adidas classic sneakers in her personal style collection.

Zendaya

Age: 20

Breakout role: We first became a fan of Zendaya in 2010 when she showed off her best dance moves as Rocky Blue on Disney’s Shake it UpThe actress, singer and model now stars as K.C. Cooper on Disney Channel’s K.C. Undercover.

Why we love her: We’re officially deeming her the Hair Chameleon, because there is literally no style she can’t pull off. From long, buzz-worthy faux dreadlocs (which don’t smell like patchouli oil and weed by the way) to an adorable pixie cut, she’s tried just about every style and slayed each one! Fun and flirty would be the best way to describe her fashion sense and we’d give anything to raid her closet. It’s no wonder Zendaya has started her own fashion line!

She’s strongly passionate about social and civil rights activism, so don’t be surprised if you see her enviable style at the next justice rally.
