While it helps that she is naturally - and indisputably - gorgeous, she has quite a bit of help on the hair and makeup end, too. Anyone can look beautiful with the right chignon and a good smoky eye, although Portman tends to do it better than most others.
Natalie has medium-length hair, so most of these styles would work best with hair that is just beyond shoulder length. See which of Natalie's hairstyle may be perfect for your prom!

Down or up? Natalie's hair looks gorgeous either way. Getty Images.
For the 2010 Academy Awards, Portman fashioned her hair up in an elegant updo with the hair around her face swept to the side, ending in a large face-framing twist. She would have looked equally lovely with her hair down and curly, however.
