Penelope Cruz's Classy Look Inspires Lea Michele

Actress Lea Michele says she looks up to Spanish beauty Penelope Cruz when it comes to fashion and beauty. Michele, who is known for her role in musical comedy-drama television Glee, is often complimented for looking like Cruz.

"I think that is one of the hardest questions because they are so many (people I admire). But I have always looked up to Penelope Cruz. She always looks beautiful, classy and sophisticated. I probably would say that she is one of the most beautiful women in the world," Marie Claire Mexico magazine quoted Michele as saying.

Talking about her own style, Michele said: "My style is very relaxed and simple - jeans, flats and a leather jacket. Lately, I have mixed the Californian style with the dark side of New York. I would wear black every day if I could."

Lea Michele is offering her voiceover for the role of Dorothy Gale in 3D-computer-animated movie Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return, which is slated to release in 2014. The actress recently lost her boyfriend Cory Monteith - he died last week.
