In case you missed it this year's Academy Awards was practically dripping with celebrity beauty inspiration, but the looks spotted on the silver carpet of the Vanity Fair Oscar Party set a new standard for star-studded annual events. The Bridgerton actress posed for eager cameras in a breathtaking Tamara Ralph column dress with eye-catching peacock feather details. The Buccellati diamond drop earrings were understated and elegant, just like her luminous makeup by Babsky. The berry-toned lips and blush created a pared-back, effortless glow.

While attending the Burberry fashion show during London Fashion Week, Ashley was photographed wearing this bronzed makeup look that paired perfectly with an elegant mid-length trend coat and clutch by the brand. Here, her bronzed, sky-high cheekbones took center stage, but a dusting of highlighter across the nose bridge and on the other high points of her face deliver the intrigue. This time around, her wide, almond-shaped eyes were given sensuality with a matte, brown shadow and smoky wing.
