by Chrystin Bunion

Known for her dry, comedic acting skills on hit TV series Parks and Recreation, The Office, and Angie Tribeca, Rashida Jones has made a name for herself in Hollywood aside from that of her music mogul father, Quincy Jones. Naturally, growing up in the limelight, Jones has also grown to become a style favorite on the red carpet. Her styles have ranged from office modest to fabulous and style-saavy since she began her acting career many years ago. One moment she could be pictured wearing a fabulous Alberta Ferretti gown on the red carpet while the next she’s keeping it simplistic in a minidress while walking the Los Angeles streets. She has proven herself to be more than just a actor–she’s the brainy, funny girl who can play around with fashion and become anyone’s imagined best friend effortlessly. Ahead, take a look back at Jones’s road from pastel printed sundress to to gorgeous couture gowns.
