“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.” 
― Emma Watson

I love this quote from Miss Watson. 

Yeah, this outfit was pretty modest and covered up, but I felt amazing in it. I liked how I look and I was confident in it - and that's the kind of attractive I want to be. I'd rather be the sweet, cute girl with a really, really nice guy, than the sexy head turner who has half-a-dozen men drooling after her, any day!

  1. I REALLY like that dress. And your jacket, and shoes, and tights, and how you put it all together. And your hair band. Very very nice.
    Interesting quote. I think it's cool that an actress thinks that way.
    Now, post the outfit I want to see soon. PLEASE?!

  2. that IS a great quote. She's worn a couple risque outfits but for the most part she is very modest and I like that. Your dress looks so lovely in it's simplicity!! I like it a lot!

  3. I love that quote too and I totally agree. I've actually said before I wouldn't want to be one of those "hot, headturners" that always get hit on and looked at. I don't want guys eye googling me like that.(is that a word?). Modesty is beautiful and real men appreciate that. You can have class and still look pretty and sexy, I'd say. Some people just don't know the difference between "sexy" and "slutty". You look super cute in this dress. It fits you wonderfully.
