Watson High on Fashion, Down on Acting

Given that she took on the role of Hermione for the 'Harry Potter' films at the age of 10, it's no wonder she looks put together. She's been a household name for almost half her life, and since her eighteenth birthday party in London last year, she's been a British paparazzi favorite. "I literally couldn't get out the door at the end of the night," she said. "The worst thing was that they laid down on the pavement and took pictures up my skirt. Now I'm going to wear cycling shorts whenever I get out of cars."

What we have seen from Watson in photographs shows her to be a stylish celeb and budding fashion icon -- she was even the choice model for the fall Burberry line.

"It's very hard to describe your own style," she said. "And I'm young, so I'm still experimenting. But I think it's quite British and very much about individuality."

She said she prefers to pick out her own clothes, but when she's tight on time and needs to work with a stylist, she makes sure nothing looks overdone. "There's nothing interesting about looking perfect -- you lose the point," she explains. "You want what you're wearing to say something about you, about who you are."

Watson's latest wardrobe choices include looks from designers like Balenciaga, Miu Miu, Alice Temperley, William Tempest, and one of her favorites, Chanel."It's kind of my lucky brand," she says, "A fail-safe."

But lately, Watson's schedule has been so hectic that she doesn't have much time to spare for personal style. The seventh and final book, 'Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows' is being split into two movies, so Watson is promoting 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince,' shooting one movie and working on pre-production for a third.
