Emma Watson: December Girl

Next month, one of my favorite style girls will grace the covers of Vogue UK and Marie Claire. As her Harry Potter co-star, Daniel Radcliffe, played a "December Boy," it seems that she is now the December Girl. Emma Watson, sporting the looks of a modern-day Mia Farrow, seems to have taken the fashion world by storm. With amazing designers at her side, including Karl Lagerfeld and Christopher Bailey, she has become the muse of many.

Both covers show off her beauty, which is further enhanced by her new pixie look. Her beauty is stoic in an aristocratic way that is quite refreshing. Emma's Vogue UK cover and spread, shot by the wonderful Mario Testino, crosses her high energy and charm with the poise of an old film star. The photos give off an energy and image that can be played like a role of film. I cannot wait to have both copies in my hands...I'm sure a few of her photos will be added to my inspiration board.

So Mia Farrow-esque!

*these Helmut Lang panties are so beautiful, I wish they came as shorts!

*love these bloomer shorts and military jacket (both Burberry Prorsum)

Miss Watson has continued her work with the fair trade brand People Tree, by designing for a second season this winter. Her collection is a variety of handwoven dresses, tee-shirts, sweatshirts, and skirts. In her recent trip to Bangladesh, she saw first-hand how her designs were being created and helping a small village through the business of fair trade (the wage for laborers is equal to the wage in the country it is being sold, so it does not take advantage of low laborer costs). All clothes by People Tree are made from organic fabrics and textiles. Many of her designs can be found on ASOS.
