When The Host premiered recently, we realized with a jolt that its star, Saoirse Ronan — the wispy, steely-eyed 13-year-old Oscar nominee for her unsettlingly great work in Atonement — turns 19 next week.

So, happy early birthday, Saoirse! We made you a slideshow ode to your red carpet evolution from fashion neophyte to sartorial risk-taker. We hope you like it, because we lost the receipt.
