Emma is Elle UK's Woman of The Year 2017

Emma will be on the cover of the February 14th issue of Elle UK.

The shoot features an interview where she talks about Beauty & The Beast and her pursuits that are not related to acting. 

She has also been awarded Elle UK's Woman of The Year Award at the Elle Style Awards, Monday Feb. 13th. 

Some excerpts from the interview:

On Beauty and The Beast, 'For me, Beauty was the perfect, most joyful thing to do... There was something connected about Hermione and Belle, and it was good to be reminded that I am an actress; this is what I do. The film is pure escapism.'

Taking time off from acting for her activism, 'It wasn't about me necessarily proving anything... I was just thinking that I have this year to myself, so let's see what we can do to 'move the needle' and make a difference.'

Dealing with critics, 'It really toughened me up... There is a level of criticism that comes with being an actress and a public figure, which I expect, but once you take a stance on something like feminism, that's a completely different ball game. 

On weather or not she'll write a book, 'I need to see and do a bit more first... I'm no expert, and when people push me into a corner of "here' Emma Watson to lecture you on feminism", it's uncomfortable because I am aware I have a long way to go. I am not sure I deserve all the respect I get yet, but I'm working on it." 

What I love is that Elle UK worked with Eco Age to promote ethical and sustainable clothes for Emma's interview. If you follow Emma's instagram, you know she often sports fair trade or even recycled clothing pieces. 

ELLE UK: 

For our main fashion story with Emma Watson, ELLE UK worked closely with Eco-Age, an ideas consultancy promoting ethical and sustainable ways to dress, and home of the Green Carpet Challenge (GCC).

The goal was to showcase brands that are reducing the impact they have on people and the planet, including vintage clothing, which has a huge role to play in reducing the fashion industry's global footprint. Each of the brands featured in the shoot were assessed against Eco-Age's GCC principles for Sustainable Excellence, which address a range of social and environmental impacts typically caused by the fashion industry.

Beauty & The Beast | Final Trailer and More {100th Post}

This is RaniiDaiFashion (E.W.)'s 100th post! On a whim of reminiscence, I decided to blog a bit today. I didn't know it would be the one hundredth post; it seems impossible. In fact, I never dared to look so far forward as to guess I would be typing on this blog in 2017, either.

Beauty and The Beast is coming out in less than a month. I cannot remember when I was last so excited for a film- and that's not just because Emma stars in it. It is because of the masterpiece I hope it to be, and because of the wonder and inspiration it will help me to feel. 

The final trailer gave me chills. You can watch it here: Trailer 

Along with that, there are moving picture posters of the characters on the IMDB page which look as if they are breathing magic. And, a behind the scenes set visit from Disney Channel that you can watch here: Set Visit 

Finally, you can watch the cast answer questions in their Facebook Live Chat here: Live Chat 

I am so excited for this tale as old as time. Are you?

Lumos- leave no families behind

“leave no families behind”

This charity, founded by J.K. Rowling is dedicated to helping create better lives for the millions of children institutionalized for reasons like poverty, disability and race and is striving to create a better system where children can stay with their families and grow with the love and care they deserve. Over 80% of the children sent to these institutions are not orphans. Those who grow up in the institutions are 500 times more likely to commit suicide.

What Emma Wore: DH as Hermione Granger

 In this video, Emma's makeup artist, Charlotte Hayward shares what she used to create Hermione's look for The Deathly Hallows. Many of the products stated are high end (obviously) so I did some searching and found tip-top, tried and true duplicates of what Charlotte used on Em that perform just as well for much cheaper.

Original ($62): Charlotte used, Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation on Emma. She wanted something that was light, so that Em's own skin would show through and her natural freckles would still be visible.

Duplicate ($38): Stila's Illuminating Liquid Foundation is a perfect alternative for Charlotte's choice. It is light coverage and has a thinner formula possessing a slight glow.

Original ($30): Charlotte prefers Christian Diorblush Cheek Creme  to a powder for it's natural appearance.

Duplicate ($12): Revlon Photo Ready Creme Blush makes it look as though you are gently flushed and is very similar to the Christian Dior blush.

Original ($55): Charlotte used a Creme De La Mer Lip Balm on Emma. It's very matte and hydrating without any pigment.

Duplicate ($9): Emma found a brand, Figs & Rouge which makes all natural balms. She used, Rambling Rose which is un-tinted and matte balm.

Original ($24): Charlotte used a Bobbi Brown Longwear Gel Liner to darken Emma's lash line just a bit to give the illusion of thicker lashes.

Duplicate ($9): Maybelline's Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Liner is just as creamy and pigmented as Bobbi Brown's formula.

Original ($25): Charlotte used Lancome Hypnose Waterproof Mascara on Em's lashes just to add a little definition and lenght.

Duplicate ($8): Loreal Paris Voluminous False Fiber Lashes Waterproof Mascara has the same hold as Lancome's and is a favorite for those who were searching for a dupe.

Original ($26): Charlotte used Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray to make Emma's locks slightly wavy and natural.

Duplicate ($7): Got2B's Beach Matte Texturizing Sea Salt Spray works just the same, creating loose, beachy waves without any crustiness.

All together- Original: $222 / Duplicate: $83
