Had to re-post...Emma Watson


When I came across this on the web, I had to re-post it on my blog. I loved this, especially for my tween girls. It's hard to find role models with views like this. It really gave me a lot of respect for her. Enjoy!


I find the whole concept of being 'sexy' embarrassing and confusing. If I do an interview with photographs people desperately want to change me--dye my hair blonder, pluck my eyebrows, give me a fringe. Then there's the choice of clothes. I know everyone wants a picture of me in a mini-skirt. But that's not me. I feel uncomfortable. I'd never go out in a mini-skirt.It's nothing to do with protecting the Hermione image. I wouldn't do that. Personally, I don't actually think it's even that sexy.What's sexy about saying 'I'm here with my boobs out and a short skirt, have a look at everything I've got?' My idea of sexy is that less is more.The less you reveal, the more people can wonder.

Amen and HERE HERE! I am impressed by her gumption in an industry where less clothing is always more. I've also been showing Hannah many of the photos of Kate Middleton (now Duchess of Cambridge) who has blown me away with her beauty and grace in overwhelmingly MODEST outfits for public appearances. She too is showing that you can still be beautiful and stylish - an icon even - and dress modestly.
