Cara Delevingne's Birthday: The 8 Incredible Style Moments That Make Our Hearts Beat Faster

Cara Delevingne turns 21 today and we're celebrating by looking at her unique style over the past year (and what a year it has been!).

Happy birthday, Cara Delevingne!

For us, this outfit is when Cara’s fashion credentials really started to shine (literally). With her killer legs, she looked stunning in this metallic Burberry dress. As is the charm of Cara, she kept the look her own by adding her signature chunky rings.

The Burberry model certainly isn’t scared of bright colours or patterns. And it's one of the reasons we love her so darn much. Here (see pic below) she proves that comfortable can be stylish with these bright printed harem pants, teamed with a rock chic leather biker and statement beanie for the ultimate off-duty cool. We are in awe.

At PR guru Fran Cutler’ 50ths birthday party she channeled BFF Rita Ora’s signature look – the suit and crop top combo. Cara looked every inch the supermodel with her washboard stomach. We especially love her initialed rucksack.

Looking right at home, she shone in her studded Burberry dress and matching clutch at the Costume Institute Gala in New York. Cara was more than qualified to pull off the ‘punk’ theme with her rock ‘n’ roll credentials. Which is a lot more than we could say for some of the other guests...

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Cara gave her red carpet look a chic update for ‘The Great Gatsby’ premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. This time, she swapped the punk jewellery and heavy make-up for a lot of sparkle and some killer red lips. Simply stunning.

Baseball cap? Check. Leather biker jacket? Check. Long pendant necklaces? Check. Take away the skinny jeans, add a pair of short shorts and Cara’s got her summer 2013 look sorted.

Yet again, Cara showed she can make a simple black gown a show-stopping fashion moment. This time, she added an unusual eye mask and a, erm, whip at The Animal Ball in London.

Doesn’t everyone wish they could look this cool in a band t-shirt, skinny jeans and trainers? It's Cara's Chanel trainers - and her fashion bravery - that make this a winning look for us.

Congratulations on an incredible year, Cara. Hopefully next year will be just as special.
