Stop everything: Anne Hathaway now has blonde hair

Anne Hathaway is now a blonde and this could just be our favourite major hair transformation of the year!

The star, who is known for her trademark brunette locks, rocked up to the Venice Film Festival sporting a new coppery shade of blonde. And we are SO obsessed with this fresh new look.

Her beautifully bronzed, glossy, shoulder-length locks were swept in a stylish side-part and paired with pink-stained lips, soft blush and natural, radiant-looking skin.

While autumn may be just around the corner in the States, Anne has steered away from the predictable darker shades that come with cooler weather, proving that a lighter switch-up is always a good idea. 

If you’ve been toying with the idea of lightening up your hair, this is all the inspiration you need. Just remember that going from a naturally dark hair colour to blonde is a gradual process, so make sure you plan ahead if you’re hoping to break out your new colour at an upcoming event.

At-home maintenance for blonde hair is also a must. Stock up on a purple shampoo to make sure your colour lasts and looks vibrant for as long as possible. A couple of our faves are TONI&GUY Purple Shampoo and John Frieda Sheer Blonde Brilliantly Brighter.
