Keira Knightley's Makeup

Good morning. I'm obsessed--again. But what else is new? I was glancing through the Instyle website, as I'm want to do when I have a free afternoon and I came across this up close of Keira Knightley's makeup at the International Rome Film Festival and I fell in love.

Her tousled tresses are perfection. I have been lusting after Keira's hair ever since she cut it short. It looks messy, like she just rolled out of bed, but not at all greasy. Her skin is soft and smooth. Her lashes are long and full. But what I really love is her lip color--a soft peachy color that emphasizes her delicate lip shape. She might not have Angelina Jolie lips but that doesn't mean she can't show them off.

Even though I am a blogger, and I should be able to, I can't put into words how much I love this look. If anyone knows what lip products she is using, please leave them in the comments below. I'm sure there are others who want to know as well.

Red Carpet Style: Keira Knightley

On the left is Keira in Miu Miu. She looks amazing! You want proof? It took me two minutes to realize that there were ladies printed on her top and puppies on the bottom. I could never pull off a lady-print top but I really adore Miu Miu's bird prints. Especially on navy platform shoes. Those have to be my favorite.

On the right Keira Knightley is wearing Nina Ricci lace minidress. She paired it with a simple black blazer and platforms. Never underestimate a great classic. :) Plus, her short curled bob looks amazing. Why is everyone cutting off their hair? Are you?

 Keira rocks the digital print trend in a floor-length Erdem creation. The color kind of reminds me of the 3D glasses you had to wear in like 2001. Do you remember those? The fit is stunning and I love the way this dress just skims the floor. Its so elegant and sophisticated. Her soft, subtle makeup is also perfection.

Then Keira rocks this sheer Rodarte look while promoting her new film. She normally is so serious in her movies and I love her bright, sunny smile. Beautiful. :) She combines a very, sophisticated top with an A-line blue skirt. So pretty!

What do you think of Keira's style? Which look is your favorite?

Pixie

Emma Watson cut her hair! :) Eeek! I love it. I absolutely adore women who are strong enough and bold enough to sport short hair. I don't think I'm in a position that I'm confident enough to cut off my hair. It's my safety blanket, I guess.

Emma said on her facebook that cutting her hair was "the most liberating thing ever." At some point in my life I want to be ready to cut it all off but I'm not there quite yet.

I thought it would be fun to take a look at some other strong women who look fabulous with their short hair.

Jamie Lee Curtis. I think she is the definition of a strong woman and she is known for her short hair. I mean, not many women are comfortable enough to wear their hair grey. They're afraid of aging or becoming old but I love the fact that this woman embraces it.

She doesn't try to hide the fact that she's not twenty anymore. And I admire that. :) She goes to show that short hair isn't for the super young, its for everyone.

Next, there're spunky Keira Knightley. Who is the actress in two of my favorite movies ever. Bend it Like Beckham and Pride and Prejudice. Both are amazing. If you haven't seen them...well, watch them!

One makes me wish that I lived in Britain and had super soccer skills. While the other makes me wish that I lived in Britain and had an adorable Mr. Darcy to fall in love with. Sigh. That movie gets me everytime.

But Keira's hair looks so edgy like this. So fun and carefree. Keira is such a beautiful woman. Honestly. I loved her Chanel commericials with Joss Stone singing in the background. I die. [sound like Rachel Zoe, much?]

This post is starting to get kind of long so I decided to cut it off here. Other girls with short hair that I love include Victoria Beckham [honestly how can I talk about pixie hair and not talk about Posh? it seems like I blog about her constantly!] and, Halle Berry [she was kick butt in X-Men], and Natalie Portman [good thing she shaved her head before Britney did. but she has guts. i would never be able to do that.] All these women are amazing.

I feel a little like I'm Tyra Banks, you know, preaching about strong women but...whatever. I can get a little preachy every once and a while, right? I'll just try to spread it out. Okay? Bye!
