Christmas and New Years' Eve festivities are fast approaching, folks, so, when Lily Collins debuted a brand new and glamorous 1950s-inspired micro-fringe, you best believe we had it noted down for party inspo.

The actor took to Instagram to share her Parisian hairdo with a five-part carousel post. Celebrity hairstylist DJ Quintero took on the task of Lily's locks whilst her MUA, Vincent Oquendo, created a pink shimmer eye look and manicurist, Thuy Nguyen, painted on winter-appropriate chocolate claws.

Oh, and not only that, but she also revealed the unlikely celebrity that inspired her look. "Channeling Wednesday on a Monday. See you tonight on @colbertlateshow…", she writes in the caption.

As much as we love the entire beauty look, we have to admit that our fave aspect has to be the hair. Her locks have been pulled back into a chic low bun and as for the fringe that she's sported for many years, well, that has been styled in a side-sweeping side parting. The whole hairstyle is just *chef's kiss*.

However, before you head to the bathroom drawer and grab those [not very good] hairdressing scissors you bought during lockdown, you may want to listen up.

Although it may seem as though Lily has had her fringe cut shorter, by taking a second glance, by the looks of it we think that, instead, the micro-fringe look has been achieved with a very clever hair trick. The ends have been styled to the side and held in place with some strong-hold hair spray to give the illusion of a shorter look.

Side note: Who knew Emily Cooper's apartment from Emily In Paris is on Google maps?! I mean, if that ain't success, IDK what is.

But I digress for I need to learn how to achieve this look ASAP. That's NYE hairspo, sorted.
