While there are many different ways to describe Diane Kruger (former Yves Saint Laurent, Chanel and Dior model, one half of Hollywood’s sexiest couple, modern-day style icon), our personal favorite is just all-around badass.

So, in celebration of Kruger’s 38th birthday today (July 15), we are taking a look at her best ensembles to date and all the fabulous fashion lessons we can draw from them. Ladies, you’ll want to take notes.
