For stars like Williams, this type of look is carefully calculated. For the January issue of Elle magazine, the "Girls" star opened up about her fashion rules.

"Look at Jennifer Aniston: She's America's sweetheart for a reason. You know what she's going to look like when she shows up to something, and there's something so comfortable in that."
