Lily James is in the spotlight again this month as we count down the days until long-awaited sequel Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again opens in cinemas (15, if you’re wondering).
Playing the younger version of Meryl Streep has the British actress rocking blonde beach waves, tan skin and a fresh face. It’s a new look for the 29-year-old, whose style has evolved over the years with brunette fringes, golden curls, smoky eyes and deep red lips.
As far as her natural beauty goes, James has been a princess to us ever since the British actress graced our screens in Disney fantasy film Cinderella in 2015. From her deep brown eyes to that endearing smile, what’s not to love?
We’ve taken a moment to look back through beauty evolution over the past six years.
