Let’s face it – we’ve all been through a time in our lives where we were…not at our best. A bit daggy, if you will.
Making the move from child to teenager isn’t exactly the smoothest of transitions and it’s undoubtedly a time when major fashion and beauty mistakes are made.
Well, thank your lucky stars you weren’t making that transition in the spotlight like these celebs were…
See where these celebrity child stars are now…
From Disney stars to disasters…
What’s your most cringe-worthy moment from your tweens?
Get all the latest trends, photos and news from bh: follow us on…
Lindsay Lohan
We bet Lindsay thought this shirt-and-vest-in-one was a red carpet winner. Cringe.
Dakota Fanning
Hands down, the worst experience as a tween is having braces. Thankfully Dakota’s metal mouth days are over and she’s looking better than ever.
Ariel Winter
The ‘Modern Family’ star is trying to dress older than her years, which doesn’t always work out so well – as can be seen by this weird ballerina dress atrocity.
Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen
Matching haircuts, matching clothes, and matching accessories. We bet they’re pretty happy embracing their own individual styles these days.
Emma Watson
Those with super short crops rejoice! Emma shows us that the ‘wet hair’ look can look chic even on the red carpet. Use a shiny hair gel – and lots of it.
Drew Barrymore
Drew takes a corporate look, mixes it up with Parisian-looking beanie and tops it off with an exceptionally high-slit skirt. Fail.
Hayden Panetierre
Victoria Justice
Don’t shy away from a classic red lip, especially if you’re wearing a black dress. Team it with a simply lined eye (try a winged look!) and bronzed cheeks.
Miley Cyrus
We’re still trying to pick our jaws up from the floor after Miley cut, shaved, and bleached her shoulder-length locks. Some love it, some hate it – what do you think?
Michelle Trachtenberg
An awkward-length skirt is basically the uniform of early teenage years. We feel your pain, Mich!
Kirsten Dunst
We feel like Kirsten should have known better than to get these weird orange front streaks so late in her teen years.
Mischa Barton
Sneakers are never okay for the red carpet. But this outfit is actually a whole lot better than some of Mischa’s other red carpet blunders.
Hilary Duff
The Lizzie McGuire star has admitted that, “We definitely want to have more kids. Maybe I’m a two-kid, three-kid kind of gal.”
Anna Paquin
Fitted dresses don’t have to be off-bounds – just make sure you keep the rest of your look quite elegant, like Anna’s done.
Emma Roberts
If you’ve been blessed with long lashes, make sure to accentuate them. Add some pink to your cheeks, a barely-there lip colour, and you’re good to go.
