"I love doing makeovers," says Paris. "I've been doing this with my sister and all of our friends for years, so I thought it would be really fun, and I was excited to meet the girls and dress them up."

First up, 18-year-old Helen Exposito. "She's just a really big fashion icon, so I'm just assuming she'll know what to do with a big slob like me."

Next there's 15-year-old Kate Webster. "I said, 'Definitely, sign me up now!' Particularly because it's with Paris and we're so different. I'm pretty shy. I'm pretty mellow. I hang out with my friends at home. So, I thought it would be a good change."

Also on board, 16-year-old Sophia Reale - "I love how she dresses because she's funky and cute" - and 18-year-old Stephanie Vu, who remarks, "I'm down for whatever."

"Hi, what's up, girls?" Paris says upon meeting the foursome. "I'm going to dress you girls to go out, Hollywood style!"

Okay, then, let's get down to business. Time to hit the racks!

The famed fashionista proceeds to pull several outfits for each girl to try on. Her first lesson? Color, color, color! Lesson No. 2? There's nothing wrong with jeans, but girl, dress it up! And third ... be bold and pattern yourself after Paris!

A little while later, the young ladies make their way back from the dressing rooms, and their fearless leader is impressed by what she sees. "It looks very good and it all matches."

But not so fast. "I think everyone needs lashes. They're fun," suggests Paris. "And, like, glitter all over their arms and a lot of eyeliner."

Sure enough, the girls soon find themselves all glammed up and ready for their close-ups!

Paris' handiwork can be seen in the upcoming issue of ELLEgirl magazine, on stands April 5.
