Gwen Stefani (Bauer Griffin, Getty) Gwen Stefani is one of our fashion heroes. Her fearless style record and strict commitment to her own distinct aesthetic is unparalleled. She knows who she is and tells the world without reservation. If only she could bottle and sell that seemingly indestructible self confidence! But until that happens, we'll make do by continuing to track her rocker-chic outfits for a little edgy inspiration. Take a look at these before and after red carpet photos, we love how her look has changed in so many ways without really changing at all. She traded in her sporty pants for jumpsuits, her crop-tops for leather, her bandanas for cat eyes, and is now getting some serious mileage out of those drop-crotch trousers . But all in all, that original uber-hip bleach-blonde is still fully intact. Cheers to the next step in Gwen's forever cool sartorial evolution.

Former gym rat Gwen Stefani has thrown in the towel on exercise. This past year, I kind of stopped working out. I think my body just needed a break. And so I did that and focused more on feeling good as opposed to beating myself up, she recently told Marie Claire UK in an interview. While recording and promoting No Doubts sixth studio album, Push And Shove , the singer, clothing designer, wife, and mother of two decided that working out, something she once felt she had to do, had to go. Last year, Stefani claimed she was addicted to exercising, according to the magazine.
