Kristen on Yahoo's List of the Year's Best Fashion and Beauty Transformations

Five ladies whose personal style has become more focused—more directional, as they say in the fashion world— and, frankly, much improved over the last 12 months:

1. Kristen Stewart. 

We’re not sure which this self-described tomboy loves more, Robert Pattinson or her stock of grungy flannels and Converse sneakers. When she hit the carpet last winter, her color choices— mostly black, white and, grey numbers—looked harsh against her pale skin. The Oscars was her turning point. She looked youthful and elegant in a curve-hugging Monique Lhuillier with a braided updo and smoky eye makeup. Livelier color choices followed, as did more dramatic makeup that played up her cheekbones and gorgeous green eyes.
