A closer look at the star’s stunning jewellery obsession: Emma Watson’s ear cuffs

It’s pretty much a fact that Emma Watson is always flawless. She’s perfected the art of looking on-trend without being overly trendy and has an air of elegance other young starlets could only dream of achieving. Of course, the downside to all this elegance is that we usually only see Watson when she’s working—no tabloid cover scandals for this actor. Thankfully she’s been out and about quite frequently over the last few weeks, promoting her latest film, Noah, and we don’t need to tell you that she’s been killing it on the red carpet.



Her two most recent red carpet looks, from the New York City and London premieres, involved simple, sculptural dresses in solid colours. In New York, Watson wore a black, long-sleeve Oscar de le Renta gown from the Fall 2014 collection. A deep-cut, open back kept it from being too mature a look for the 23-year-old—who was quoted this weekend as saying she can’t wait to age. (Lol, okay.) Today in London, Watson stunned in an all-white Ralph Lauren Collection silk column gown. Both looks are top notch, but what really has us on board with Watson’s style are her stand-out accessories.



Basically: those ear cuffs, guys! Watson’s actually worn ear cuffs a number of times on the red carpet, starting with a stunning set by Repossi which she donned last May at The Bling Ring premiere in Cannes. In New York for Noah, Watson’s ear cuff of choice was more of a winding chain of yellow gold and diamonds, centered on her ear, by jewellery designer Ana Khouri. She paired it with a rose gold bracelet, matte black nails and a whole mess of delicate stacking and third knuckle rings. (Also, extra beauty props for Watson’s bright orange lip!) In London today, Watson wore a yet-unidentified smaller chain-style ear cuff, paired with a more traditional cuff ring at the top of her ear. When it comes to ear-adoring, more really is is more. That being said, we need to get ourselves to a jewellery store, pronto.

March's most fashionable:Emma Watson

This March Emma Watson has graced the Oscars ceremony, posed at the red carpet premiere of Noah in Berlin, Madrid and New York, squeezed in a sitting with talk show host David Letterman, staged Twitter takeover for MTV and sat patiently during a separate Twitter Q&A. A lady of leisure this 23-year-old is not.



Throughout the press junkets, photo calls and premieres Watson has retained her reputation as an interesting one to watch in the style sphere (she wasn't asked to guest edit fashion glossy Wonderland back in January for no reason).

Sure she might play it safe with heartbreakingly beautiful dresses by Wes Gordon and Oscar de la Renta, but there is always a carefully calculated twist to her looks. Ear cuffs, which Watson started championing during the 2013 promo tour of The Bling Ring, continue to punctuate her outfits, while multiple silver rings creep up her fingers (the nails of which have been painted a don't-mess-with-me black).

READ: Does Emma Watson really own just eight pairs of shoes?

Even the actress's airport looks have garnered nods of approval in Telegraph Towers. Where other actresses hide behind bumper shades and forgiving overcoats (who knows what's going on underneath?), Watson has given us satin skater skirts, chic knitwear, beige macs and many a polished brogue.

Lest not forget that the former Harry Potter starlet also remains a die hard fan of the jumpsuit; a tricky garment to execute but which suits her petite frame down to a T.

Are shoppable videos the future of fashion?

The fashion world is made of trendsetters, early adopters, and well, we’ll just skip all the rest. Without us, sneakers would be for gym use only and wearing white after Labour Day would still be considered taboo. When it comes to technology, recent developments (Opening Ceremony’s collabo with Intel for one) have shined a light on our innovative knack as well. But amidst all this forward thinking, one element still has a big question mark hanging over its head: video. First came the fashion week livestream. Then came the fashion film craze. Now, there’s another burgeoning fad: the shoppable video. What does it all mean for fashion’s tech future?



In 2012, Ssense launched the “world’s first shoppable music video” starring Iggy Azealia, Diplo and Fki in the shopping site’s designer wares. Since, its been tried by Gucci, Juicy Couture and last year, added as a functionality on Youtube. And while one would think this technology would have major retail implications (if someone had given me the direct path to Gwen Stefani’s bindi, lord knows I would have traded my life’s savings), the shoppable video still seems like somewhat of an enigma. Are people actually clicking?



According to Google, 1 in 3 shoppers use Youtube to shop for apparel and 4 out of 10 people who watch a shoppable video will check the items out online or in-person.



Recently, Sport Chek partnered with YouTube for a shoppable video featuring Team Canada athletes Jon Montgomery, Maëlle Ricker and Meaghan Mikkelson in Olympic performance wear. “Our goal was to create an online experience that combines our brand messaging and product support in a more dynamic way for the customer,” says Frederick Lecoq, VP marketing and e-commerce at FGL Sports Limited (The umbrella of Sport Chek). “Our use of experiential videos was so successful that we’re already looking for the next evolution of shoppable integration–one that creates an even more seamless connection between Sport Chek’s brand and the products we sell.” Did it work? “Canadians have responded well to the shoppable video and it has surpassed our expectations from a measurement perspective—three times the average click through rate of the average digital media banner,” he says.



Adding fuel to the fire, LVMH-owned content site Nowness launched a balletic shopping video this week featuring dancers moving through looks by LVMH-owned brands Maison Martin Margiela, Haider Ackermann, Kenzo and Louis Vuitton. It’s a creative feat that gives readers insights into fit amongst other vibe-y qualities. It’s also a pretty slick way of tying it all back to monetization, while keeping things interesting.



So, are there silver screen fashion automats coming to a mall near you? With so many big named businesses behind the shoppable video, its rise seems inevitable. However, as demand for high quality video production also rise, it remains to be seen whether such intricate works of tech art will become mainstream.



If the future is defined by the past, here’s hoping Clueless is shoppable.

Setting Hannah, Adam, and Jessa Up for the Home Stretch:Girls' Recap

We have 2 episodes left to travel during this season of ladies, which implies everyone's story is getting {down to} wind down to a conclusive purpose. on solidifies the immediate future for Hannah and Adam (and not in a very notably promising way), and tosses Jessa alittle bit nearer to all-time low.

The Hannah and Adam Story

Two weeks back, we tend to compared the Hannah-Adam arc of Season three to the romantic story of Spike Jonze's Her. Not a very perceptive analogy, since Her is as blanket as a moving-picture show regarding love and relationships will get, however our predictions ar valid with the last word conclusion of the most recent episode, "Role Play." Hannah goes out drinking (excessively) with work friends, returning up succeeding morning to the shock that Adam was too engulfed by his play to even worry regarding what might need happened to her. All this and a dismissive morning angle and his apparent embarrassment once she showed up to observe his rehearsal equates to Hannah deciding to do and "spice things up" between them, instituting AN elaborate role play situation within which she gets into bit with the dark patterns a Hannah and Adam of past times accustomed fancy.

But things transgress once Adam is pained and defer by the try, maybe victimization the ordeal as a vehicle to access feelings he looks to own been fun for a while: he needs out. a minimum of quickly. As such, corroboratory not simply our predictions however Hannah's worries from earlier this season, Adam says he wants time except for her to devote himself to his art, opting to remain with Ray (Ray! which means he'll be back!) for a short while.

We don't expect Hannah and Adam to create it to the tip of the season, part as a result of this new flip and part as a result of each season premiere sees her waking in bed with a distinct partner (first Marnie, then prophet, then Adam... who's next?).

The Jessa scenario (with a little of Shoshanna wet in)

Jessa has not return terribly off from wherever we tend to found her at the start of this season — though she cleansed up for a short while, she ne'er absolutely embraced the problematic nature of her addiction and her approach to life generally. This week, the unlikely voice of reason that Shoshanna has become confronts Jessa and opaque gem (Richard E. Grant) by shocking the 2 with a visit from the latter's female offspring Dot (an substance Felicity Jones).

Jasper virtually breaks down, initially resisting his daughter's pleas for affectionateness however step by step returning to her (and his own) defense once Jessa accosts the each of them. The conclusion of the union sees Jessa while not even the person WHO fostered her voyage into medication, together with her habit presenting itself as less of a drag than her addiction to pushing folks away.

And whereas we tend to leave Jessa in a very dark place at the tip of the episode, it's maybe the depths to that she required to fall so as to climb copy. She finally accepts her temperament — she has got to — currently that even her cousin-german, WHO once adored her particularly else, has seen her for her appearance.

The region of Marnie

I'm a member of the terribly distributed Marnie camp, however her flip on looks notably barren of interest. She would possibly become Soojin's (Greta Lee) assistant at AN picture gallery, despite her feelings that such work is demeaning? a lot of significantly, Marnie is clearly harboring feelings for Adam's pal and fellow actor, the spirit walker Desi (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), however solely per se that she very needs him to be interested in her, as Marnie has known herself as valuable only if she is attracting men. Desi clearly cares for Marnie in his encouragement of her song-writing and creative thinking, however he's dedicated to his girlfriend. Sadly, she takes this as a rejection and spirals deeper into her pit of despair.

So there we tend to ar. everybody feeling happy?

Chelsea Handler and Ronan Farrow at the 92nd Street Y

Chelsea Handler, best-selling author and highly successful comedian and television personality, took to the stage of the 92nd Street Y to discuss her new book, Uganda Be Kidding Me, with journalist and humanitarian Ronan Farrow. The release of her fifth book has been highly anticipated, since four years have passes since Handler published her last title, Lies That Chelsea Handler Told Me. As the proud owner of her four books, you could imagine my excitement when it was announced there would be a signing after the discussion at the Y for anyone in attendance. To no one's surprise, the theater sold out of every copy of Uganda Be Kidding Me.

Chelsea Handler, Ronan Farrow, Sarah Kuszelewicz

Handler talked about everything from her brother's passing when she was 10 (and how she tried to get attention in all the wrong ways thereafter) to the current events in pop culture. “There’s only so many years you can talk about Justin Bieber,” she said. “I mean, I don’t care about him.” Believe it or not, this funny lady has quite the serious side. In fact, she admitted that she actually prefers to play it grounded. She went on to talk to the audience about the fine line between light-hearted comedy and just being plain old mean. “If you care too much about what people think, you won’t succeed in what you want,” she said while confessing how she never reads what people post about her online.

Chelsea Handler, Ronan Farrow, Sarah Kuszelewicz

For anyone who has read one of Handler's books before, you would be lying through your teeth if you say you didn’t burst out laughing frequently throughout. “I just love that feeling,” she said of the joys of writing. "It’s like being a little kid again, I’m having fun alone.” When asked how she accomplished being such a successful author, “I just did it, it’s complete luck. It’s not like I’m a literary genius.” Handler did credit author Dave Sedaris with begin her inspiration to begin writing books.

Chelsea Handler, Cyndi Cappello

Uganda Be Kidding Me is a collection of stories from various trips that Handler, along with some friends and family, has gone on. She admits to giving her traveling companions no other option but to go on these all expense paid vacations with her. “It’s a free for all,” she said to Farrow, “but you have to know you’ll probably be in my book.” Along with all her other publications, it’s almost impossible to put it down once you start. In fact, I had to force myself to stop reading so I could enjoy it in more than one sitting. If you love hilariously uncensored stories (and lets be honest, who doesn’t?), I highly recommend you go out and pick up a copy of Uganda Be Kidding Me, in stores today.

'Lone Survivor' Is Unsettling in the Best Ways Possible-Review

Lone Survivor is not a movie for the faint of heart. it is a film that beats you down and solely allows you to up for a couple of precious moments before the credits roll, however that emotional strangling is what helps build the film such a strong expertise.



Peter Berg's Lone Survivor tells the story of Operation Red Wings, primarily that specialize in a bunch of 4 Navy SEALs United Nations agency ar sent to the mountains of Afganistan to capture or kill a member of the Taleban. The set up goes wrong, and therefore the team has got to fight for his or her lives to flee the enemy-infested space. The film will a fabulous job of ratcheting up the strain before collapsing into its main action sequence, one that's as thrilling because it is unsettling. The long sequence brings forth reminiscences of the ill-famed 6 June 1944 gap of Saving personal Ryan, except this film's fire-fight stretches out the violence sort of a medieval torture device. The langourous scene is, at times, arduous to sit down through. every moment slips by in spiraling tension. It's without doubt uncomfortable, and therefore the film builds some extent to ne'er make the violence fun or attractive. The action is not consequence-free, and each bullet discharged carries weight, creating the scenes brutal and unrelenting as a result of it. The film takes on the aura of a horror motion-picture show that wishes you to feel each second that ticks by, and director Berg makes certain that a pressing despair starts to sadden the viewer even as it will on the troopers.



Mark Wahlberg is masses capable as Marcus Lutrell, a member of the SEAL unit that's sent on the mission.
