Style Profile: Katherine Heigl

By Michelle Lanz
Katherine Heigl was just a fresh-faced teen when she was first introduced to Hollywood in 1994's "My Father the Hero." Since then, she has blossomed into a Hollywood style icon and a star on both the big and small screen. Whether she's at a premiere, awards show or just running errands, Katherine always seems to mix sexy and sophisticated pitch-perfectly. So let's push our jealousy aside, and take a look at Katherine's best looks.
All about bright, monochromatic colors on the red carpet, Katherine pops in a glittery, asymmetrical knee-length dress at the U.K. premiere of "The Ugly Truth." With just enough sass and the right amount of sophistication, we'd like to deem her the Jolly Green Hottie.

Katherine is the definition of flirty and feminine at the 7th Annual Chrysalis Butterfly Ball in Los Angeles. Considering that her lilac-colored Hugo Boss dress complements the purple carpet and flowers, she might just have a sixth sense for style.

With the ultra-feminine look down, Katherine proves she can also sport a men's-style power suit like a pro at the 35th Annual People's Choice Awards. The strappy heels, sleek updo and matching black jewelry accessorize her to perfection.

This busy mama spares no expense when it comes to looking her best, even off the carpet. Instead of rolling out of bed, throwing on flip-flops and walking out the door, Katherine decks herself out in an off-the-shoulder green dress, a cream-colored knit sweater, a smashing purse and leather boots.

Hey, her eyes are up there! For the 3rd Annual Hot In Hollywood Awards, Katherine sexed up her look with a really good push-up bra and a form-fitting, two-toned dress straight out of the closet of Joan from "Mad Men." Sideswept curls add a pinch of old Hollywood glamour to the ensemble.

Katherine must have spotted this stunning electric blue satin dress (worn to a screening of "The Ugly Truth") from a mile away, because it's impossible not to notice. Her dress screams, "Hey, look, it's the star of the film premiere, no one else matters but me!"

Katherine chose a more neutral tone for the 58th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards. This floor-length, beaded gown complements her skin tone so perfectly that it makes her look like a golden goddess. Plus, she always acknowledges (and flaunts) her enviable decolletage.

Katherine is a bona fide "Lady In Red" at the 80th Annual Academy Awards. Her gown's cinched waist and cleverly designed asymmetrical shoulder puts a twist on a modern classic. Old and new Hollywood unite!

Katherine manages to make even the simplest dress look like a dream come true. This tight '40s-style dress fits her so well that you'd think she was sewn into it. It even makes us forgive her for that kitschy bag she's holding. Hope it's full of swag or something.

How does she do it? This lady (or her stylist rather) really knows how to rock killer accessories, including a waist-hugging belt and a chunky pearl necklace.

Katherine looks fresh and festive at the premiere of "Marley & Me." Red coat, red lips, red shoes ... she must have a whole closet dedicated to just that color.

The classic uniform of the young mom: preppy white button-up paired with a colorful cardigan, denim and hair back in a messy bun. Katherine was ready to rock the mom look long before she became one herself, if this puppy has anything to say about it. After all, practice make perfect.
