Cameron Diaz: Style Evolution (PHOTOS)
|

Cameron Diaz has been a part of Hollywood's A-list since playing a sexy nightclub performer in 1994's The Mask. Ever since then, the leggy star has become as recognizable for her blonde hair and blue eyes as she is for her comedic timing and charming disposition. She's also gained much of her recognition through the evolution of her style — starting out as a simple, plainly dressed young model and later blossoming into one of the film industry's leading ladies, always a top pick on the best dressed lists around the world.

Today, on her 39th Birthday, we're taking a look back at some of her most memorable attire and wishing her many more years of successful movie roles and head-turning red carpet snapshots.
