In 2009, MTV threw eight self-proclaimed Guidos and Guidettes into a beach house and let the
cameras roll.
The resulting Jersey Shore reality series quickly gained a cult following, but of the
entire cast, it was Jennifer "JWoww" Farley and Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi that left the
largest impression on fans.
Since the show ended, these besties have transformed their look from flashy to classy.
Now, JWoww and Snooki look nothing like they used to.
Jersey Shore, Season One
When Snooki and JWoww first walked into the Jersey Shore house in 2009, their styles got
viewers' attention.
Snooki made her entrance in hilarious "meatball" fashion, with her trademark hair poof and
spray tan.
"Hello, party's here!"
She held true to that promise and became known as a party animal; appropriate for a girl
owning the largest collection of animal print accessories known to mankind.
When JWoww arrived, the first thing everyone noticed was her cleavage.
Her style was bold, bright, and left little to the imagination.
She typically accessorized with large hoop earrings and an even larger attitude.
Both ladies' styles quickly became trademark looks for 20-something fashionistas looking
for a good time.
Jersey Shore, Season Four
When Snooki and JWoww showed up in Italy in 2011 to film the fourth season of this epic
reality show, it was clear the popularity of the program had inspired the ladies to
change up their looks.
Both stars had significantly slimmed down, especially Snooki, who was filmed keeping
up with her new workout routine throughout the season.
Her style, however, could not be tamed.
Snooki was often filmed abroad wearing shorts with her usual ridiculous outfits.
Of course, she still rocked the big hair and animal prints, too.
JWoww's changes were a bit different.
It was rumored she had lip and cheek fillers, her chin shaved, Botox, and even a nose job,
though she told InTouch Weekly that diet and exercise had altered her appearance, not surgery.
Her fashion sense also shifted that season, usually opting for casual jeans and a t-shirt,
unless, of course, the cast was heading out to the club.
After Jersey Shore
When Jersey Shore ended in 2012, the ladies scored their own spin-off show, Snooki & JWoww,
where the two moved in together.
"Sorry, neighbors, cause these bitches are moving in."
During the series, Snooki had a couple of babies and eventually got married to her long-time
boyfriend, Jionni LaValle.
As a mom-to-be, she toned down her gaudy style to a more neutral, yet trendy, wardrobe and
trading her signature bouffant for natural-looking curls.
She didn't completely ditch her funky sense of style, though, and continued to express
her creativity with several pieces of body art that she loves to flaunt on the red carpet.
JWoww was also busy starting a family during their spin-off show.
She had her first child in 2014 with husband Roger Matthews and admitted to having another
breast augmentation after breastfeeding her daughter, telling Us Weekly,
"Ten years later and with the birth of my angel baby Meilani, they had changed a bit.
I've had them over ten years, so it was time."
2016 VMAs
Now that both of these ladies are married with two kids each, they've hung up their
party hats and steered clear of the spotlight.
Imagine the shock and awe when the dynamic duo hit the red carpet at the 2016 MTV Video
Music Awards.
They were barely recognizable.
Snooki has been open on social media about work she's had done, including lip injections,
and Botox.
At the VMAs, she wore a sparkling gown that showed off her slim figure.
Her locks appeared thick and natural, and that signature spray tan of years past seems
to have finally faded away.
Then there was JWoww, who looked like she just stepped off the set of True Blood...or
maybe The Addams Family.
Like Snooki, she seems to have quit the tanning habit and embraced her natural skin tone,
though that may be all that remains of her natural body.
JWoww looks great, but her new style is worlds away from the Jersey Shore Guidette.
In true JWoww fashion, she was sure to opt for a plunging neckline that showed off her...newest
additions.
