Emma Watson in red-pink Valentino in London: the best she’s ever looked?

We haven’t heard or seen much of Emma Watson since she began “studying abroad” at Oxford University last fall. After much consternation and name-calling (on my part), I was so happy to see her go back to school and avoid the pitfalls of becoming a child-star-turned-party-girl (see: Lindsay Lohan). I was also happy to Emma go back to school because it’s given me a chance to miss her. These are our first photos of Emma since the UK premiere of My Week With Marilyn last November, and at that point, Emma had already “disappeared” for several months too. This is smart – only make one appearance every few months. Let people miss you. Let your red carpet appearances become an “event”. This is the path that Emma Roberts should be following – but she isn’t.

Anyway, Emma was the hostess of a Lancome-sponsored pre-BAFTA event in England yesterday. Emma is one of the faces of Lancome, a decision I wasn’t happy with, but whatever. This is maybe the best Emma has ever looked, right? I’m not imagining things? This red-pink Valentino dress is perfect – sexy, young, girly, feminine and not saccharine. There’s a peek-a-boo effect with the lace that adds an interesting dimension, and I’m pretty sure I’m seeing the shadow of a nipple. Is that trashy? Or does it add some mystique? I kind of like it – it’s not overt, like she’s falling out of her dress or something. She just needs some nip-tape. Overall, I think this dress and Emma are a perfect fit together – small-busted girls get to wear all of the CUTE stuff, damn it.

I also love that her lipstick doesn’t perfectly match the dress too – it complements the dress, but it’s not too matchy-matchy. And how great is it that she’s growing out her Bieber hair?

      She looks LOVELY indeed! Trailer trash chipmunk Cyrus should be taking notes about how to be a classy, sassy, flawless young lady with brains and goals for the future like Emma. Instead of banging and bonging and buying her clothes at a good will store with ill fitting 80s reject pieces of clothing.

    She looks great. Alot of people in Hollywood could really learn a thing or two from her. Let people miss you, dammit!

    Kaiser, do you usually post on Saturdays or is it just this time? Just want to know because mostly there aren’t any new posts on Saturdays. Thanks. :)

    I love her legs. She has such healthy legs. I also love her style. I want those high heels. She really seams like good hearted person.

    i think she’s girl-next-door pretty. But not stunning or beautiful. She seems like a nice enough girl and the dress is ok. Always feel ‘meh’ when it comes to Emma Watson

      Me too! She looks like she just served my Cinnabon at the mall. Great beauty? Pretty girl, but come on. Nothing that stands out there. I think people have an affection for the HP movies, hence all the love for her.

      Agree. And clearly Hollywood does, too. Even the Jean Seberg-Mia Farrow haircut hasn’t worked to get her serious young actress parts like it worked for Michelle Williams, Mia Wasikowska and Carey Mulligan.

      I think that’s why Watson jumped on the perfume ad campaign — as a desperate reminder to casting agents in every magazine on the newsstands.

      She should grow her hair out (in hope of second-banana girlfriend parts) and go back to college.

        I admire her for working at all. Girl never has to lift a finger for the rest of her life thanks to Harry Potter. Who cares if she’s a superstar?

        That being said, I love this dress, the shoes and her makeup. I wish she’d grow out her hair though.

        I’m afraid it’s the other way out – Michelle Williams, Mia Wasikowska and Carey Mulligan don’t need to change a haircut to make everyone believe they can act! :)

    Even though I find her fashion to be hit and miss sometimes I find her beauty to be simply flawless.

    She put on a tiny bit of school weight. Which I think flatters her. Her skin looks amazing.

    For some reason I think she’s one of those types that needs to carry an extra 5lbs. or so, when they get older. In 10-15 years she’s gonna be one of those that has to choose between her ass or her face. Don’t ask me why I think this. Just a feeling.

    I love her nailpolish! And yes she looks great, I think very few women could wear that dress without resulting too much sugary.

    must be so weird for her not to be filming Harry Potter right now, she’d be right in the midst of filming. She looks lovely, i noticed the nip though aswell even though I wasn’t looking! Def needs some tape. She seems to like being a bit risky though.

      I agree, this dress is horrible! I’m feeling itchy just looking at it!!

      It hasn’t been cut well around the shoulders/armpits, the neckline is cheap looking, and it needs more lycra (or a smaller size?) cos it’s wrinkly!! Orange red is a horrible colour and Emma doesn’t suit it, especially the lippy!

    She’s a lovely girl but the ensemble + makeup remind me a bit too much of (a classier version of) Dancing with the Stars or Strictly Come Dancing.

    Emma looks fantastic! I don’t love the lipstick color, and the shoes are a bit heavy for the dress, but those are minor infractions. She is what girls her age should aspire to be, not Miley Cyrus.

    Never thought she had Bieber hair. Emma’s short hair always reminded me more of Twiggy or Mia Farrow. But now that I think of it you could probably say the same of Bieber

    I don’t know what it is, but she just looks SO smug all the time (ok, not all the time. Maybe 85% of her pictures are smug).

    But she does carry off lipstick very well (and so smugly).

    She looks great. But I have to disagree that only a small chested girl could wear that dress. I don’t see why someone who is small but with a bigger chest couldn’t wear that dress. just saying.

    Emma will always be cute to me but will never be anything more than cute. I like her hair and makeup but I do not understand this new love affair that Hollywood starlets are having with the design team at Valentino. Their clothes all look like either the worst of the eighties trends or Italian grandma couture. I will admit that last springs show was overall very pretty but nothing to rave about and not red carpet worthy at all. The shoes are hot though.

    She looks really good. I like that new line of lisptick she’s pushing for the brand. It’s pretty good stuff. I haven’t seen her in a film besides My Week with Marilyn. I never bothered with Harry Potter, so I have no real assessment of her talent or anything.

    I think she looks wonderful. Classy, age appropriate with just a hint of sex. Spot on, spot on.

    She looks too masculine and her dress looks like something you’d find at an ice skating competition. I love her and appreciate that she is such a classy girl, but she would look so much better with longer hair and a dress that looks less like a bodysuit from the ’90s.

    That said, she could wear a potato sack and I’d have more respect for her than many other actresses in Hollywood her age.

    I realize she’s growing hair out, but I want to see how that looks in the back. I have never had the nerve to rock the wet look. She looks good here, but nothing out of this world

    Emma is very pretty but this is not the best she’s ever looked by any stretch of imagination.

    The skirt of the dress is really strange and the bow just gives it a cheap, tacky look.

    I also don’t think this color is the best for her.

    I just find a bit sad that she’s growing out her pixie. I was so proud to share a haircut with her, hahaha. But I understand her reasons.

    Anyway, I like this girl a lot. She’s so classy and intelligent.

    She could’ve been another Lohan, but she’s got a good head on her shoulders. And she’s getting herself an education, which is a wonderful thing.

    All the best to her.
