Pop the champagne, because it’s Lupita Nyong’o’s<\/strong> birthday!<\/p>\n

The Black Panther<\/em> star<\/a> turns 36 years old today and we love a good reason to grab some bubbly and eat some cake, so why not do both to celebrate Nyong’o’s day? It sounds like a win-win to us.<\/p>\n

Over the years, we’ve grown accustomed to seeing the Us<\/em> star<\/a> on red carpets wearing glamorous and stylish ensembles<\/a> and that’s why we wanted to shine a light on the actress’s style on her birthday. It seems fitting, right?<\/p>\n

With so much style and grace no matter where she’s going, Nyong’o has become a fashion “It Girl”<\/a> in addition to a mega star over the past decade or so and we bow down to her fashionable wardrobe choices today and every day.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She had some stunning costumes in Black Panther,<\/em> but her red carpet looks really go above and beyond, not to mention her Fashion Week looks that she dawns from year to year.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

The 12 Years a Slave<\/em> actress knows what looks good on her and she isn’t afraid to work a red carpet every now and then.<\/p>\n

No matter what she puts on she looks fierce and fabulous and that’s why she is our go-to muse<\/a> for fun and fancy wardrobe inspiration.<\/p>\n

Even if you don’t have a Hollywood party to attend anytime soon, Nyong’o’s style will give you life<\/a> and that’s exactly what we all need to make our Friday brighter.<\/p>\n

Now that she’s about to appear in Jordan Peele’s<\/strong> Us<\/em>, which comes out this month<\/a>, we’re going to be getting a lot more ensemble power moments, which is so exciting.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Until she hits another carpet or premiere,\u00a0we will honor of her and the fact that she made it another year around the sun with our favorite photos of the star.<\/p>\n

Prepare for some serious fashion envy as we raise a glass to the birthday girl while scrolling through her best looks of all time below.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
