It's been 20 years since Charlize Theron landed her first movie role at the age of 22, and in that time her style has changed in a subtle yet noticeable way.
Certain items — like pantsuits, statement necklaces, and strapless tops — have remained staples in the star's wardrobe for decades, but she has styled them differently over time. Through the use of makeup and jewelry, her style has also become more relaxed and informa, and her hair has been on quite the journey.
The actress's gradual evolution shows that change doesn't always have to be startling. Theron's tendency to stick to fashion and beauty looks that work for her prove that she has a clearly defined sense of style.
