Style icon: Emma Watson

No, I'm not just doing this blog because I'm obsessed or whatever with Harry Potter. I mean, sure, if you put it that way; I was exposed to Emma Watson and her amazingness through the movies, but since then I love seeing blurbs about her being a style icon in magazines and online. Harry Potter is such a success that it even promotes great fashion, what's not to love?

An unknown actress before she starred as Hermione Granger in the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Emma Watson has since grown from a little bushy haired Gryffindor into a full-fledged fashionista, appearing at movie premieres in clothes designed specifically for her. Her latest achievement would be her new Burberry campaign, something well-suited for the gorgeous Brit:

The Harry Potter actress has graced the cover of Teen Vogue thrice, twice alone and once with co-star Daniel Radcliffe:

 She has also been featured front page on other magazines such as Elle, as well as numerous other fashion, entertainment, and teenage magazines:

 The young starlet may be entering her first year at Brown University soon, but that doesn't mean she is severing any ties she has with the fashion and acting world. The last two installments of Harry Potter—Deathly Hallows parts 1 and 2—are still being filmed, requiring Emma to stay in Britain a bit longer. Miss Watson is also on friendly terms with couture designer Karl Lagerfeld:

Overall, Emma Watson is a girl to watch. She has made the most of fashion, and always makes it looks good. Though some of her friends and co-stars (Bonnie Wright, Katie Leung, Evanna Lynch) may be noted for their sense of style, they are in no way a match for Emma. She outshines all others with her beauty and style. I, for one, am looking forward to seeing what trends she starts at Brown (and her kiss with Rupert Grint in the last HP film)!
