What isn’t there to love about Cynthia Erivo? She’s got a powerhouse voice that reduces us to tears (the good kind), one-of-a-kind personal style and a mega-watt smile that lights up any room.

And if that isn’t reason enough to admire the Tony and Grammy Award winner, take note of how she confidently rocks her textured hair on the red carpet.

With the help of celebrity stylist Vernon Francois, the British beauty has been living her best life in a platinum blonde coif and we love seeing how she styles it from day-to-day. This week was particularly fabulous as she pulled off two completely different looks that we can’t stop gawking over.

On Monday (April 19), The Color Purple actress stepped out in kinky finger waves for Tribeca Film Festival’s ‘Clive Davis: The Soundtrack of Our Lives’ Opening Gala. Combined with the emerald green frock and merlot lipstick, this entire ensemble is head-to-toe spring season perfection.

And on Thursday (April 20), Erivo opted for a sleek and straight mushroom cut with equally vibrant magenta lipstick while attending the IWC Schaffhausen ‘For The Love Of Cinema’ Gala.
