If anyone looks comfortable in their own skin, it’s Emma Watson.
For a long time she has mystified women the world over with the
way she has collected a hoard of male admirers, yet still dresses with her own distinct style.
She doesn’t fake tan, wear hair extensions, opt for
plunging necklines or even show off a little butt cheek action to the rear. Yet our
male counterparts still list her as one of the sexiest women alive.
I’ve had this conversation so many times with male friends,
and when I ask what’s so alluring they often answer that she’s just beautiful,
smart and seems really comfortable with who she is. They are right; you can
see this in the way she holds herself on the red carpet, and the smirk that
often decorates her face. She never takes herself too seriously.
Last week a friend and I went to see her latest film The
Perks of Being a Wallflower. Without giving too much away as I know a lot of
you are yet to see the film, it's fantastic as it speaks of human hurts that
often aren’t illuminated on the big screen. The cast, apart from Emma, are
newbies, so you feel you really are watching authentic people, the soundtrack... oh
my god! David Bowie is my hero and to hear his music perfectly synced with real
life circumstances, it's goose bump worthy.
Emma is absolutely incredible
too. How often do we see a star that's been catapulted into international fame through
a character as strong and complex as Hermione's in Harry
Potter, to then break down our perceptions of what else she can do, and fully
take on new exciting acting ventures so brilliantly. What a star!
And because I really can’t give too much more away on the
movie, here are my picks of Emma’s best looks this year that truly illustrate
exactly what I mean about her feminine, true-to-herself style. You go girl!
In Christian Dior. If anyone can work an LBD with tailored black pants, it's this dame!
This architectural frock by Brood wins my sartorial tick. I love how she went all matchy-matchy and paired this ensemble with white pumps.
This gorgeous digital print dress by Erdem suited Emma's slim bod perfectly. I love the ox-blood lip as well.
Peter Pilotto is a perfect choice for Emma. The quirky geometrical cutouts paired with a busy hem-line allow Emma to have fun within her couture-wardrobe.
A brave choice that paid off! Giorgio Armani never looked so whimsical. Like a fairy queen overlooking a moonlit pond, Emma encapsulated what grace and beauty is all about.
Has anyone else seen The Perks of Being a Wallflower yet?
Are you a fan of Emma Wastson's style?
Take care,
