Blake Lively as Adaline Bowman (Posters)

Blake plays a mother who remains 29 – never growing older, even as her own young daughter ages and becomes a grandmother herself. Check out these posters for forthcoming movie The Age of Adaline show her retaining her youthful complexion through the ages. The Age of Adaline, which opens nationwide on April 24.

“We had to make Adaline a real person, so there was a lot of playing dress-up in different eras,” makeup artist Monica Huppert says. “The ‘60s were the opposite of everything else—the ‘40s and ‘50s were about bright lips, like pinks and reds. The ‘60s were rebellious in their own way and different than anything done prior; it was all about paler lips and lots of eye liner.” Huppert used L’Oréal Pro-Last Lipcolor ($10) in Passionate Petal to give Adaline the perfect, subtle pink lip. As for Adaline’s bangs, hairstylist Anne Carroll tells us exactly how she created them: She clipped them in. “The bangs were not Blake’s,” she reveals. “They were actually clip-ons that I had colored to match her hair!” She collaborated with the costume department and costume designer Angus Strathie for the matching headscarf, after doing extensive research on all the different eras and citing lots of vintage photos for reference.

2014 CFDA Fashion Awards with Michael Kors

Blake Lively went straight to the top of best-dressed lists everywhere as she hit the red carpet at the 2014 CFDA Fashion Awards last night looking like a true ’60s bombshell.

The statuesque blonde oozed glamour in her unusual leaf-green mini-dress featuring a pretty scalloped hemline and delicate soft blush and white print that from afar made it appear as if she was in fact wearing a gold sequinned number.

The exquisite Michael Kors Resort 2015 piece perfectly accentuated her enviably slim figure, while she certainly didn’t disappoint the designer himself, who looked mighty pleased as he accompanied the former Gossip Girl star to the event held at Alice Tully Hall in New York’s Lincoln Center.

The 26-year-old rocked the look from head to toe, completing her ensemble with blush suede platform stilettos, a matching satin headband, a stack of metallic and wooden bangles and large hoop earrings, while she carried a small soft pink clutch with voluminous waves, while her make-up was expertly applied, a sun-kissed golden base matching her gorgeous allover tan, soft pink lips and cheeks, her eyes heavily rimmed with kohl liner and played up with lashings of mascara.

A matching soft pink manicure perfectly brought the look together while setting off her stunning engagement and wedding bling.
