Harry Potter star turned major college bookworm Emma Watson has a few encouraging words for her teenaged fans out there and while they may sounds a little cliche, I think she does an exceptional job of practicing what she preaches- so preach on girl!

Be true to who you are and do the best to feel comfortable in your own skin. You are all right exactly as you are.

The 21-year-old Brit is currently taking a break from her studies at Oxford University and is traveling around Asia for an unnamed project.

I just love this girl.  Not only is she amazingly talented, but she’s got a good head on her shoulders and always manages to look adorable!  I think we would all be wise to heed her advice.

It’s finally time for Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint to bid a fond farewell to Hogwart’s and while the cast may be ready to move on to bigger and better projects, that certainly doesn’t mean the final days of shooting the last Harry Potter film weren’t full of a few tearful goodbyes and bittersweet moments.

As we go on, we remember, all the times we, had together. And as our lives change, come whatever, we will still be, friends forever.

Vitamin C anyone?  Did I just severely date myself?

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 hits stores this Friday.  Did someone say stocking stuffer???

After blossoming from Hogwarts cutie into Hollywood hottie before our eyes, people all over the world are clamoring to know how Harry Potter star Emma Watson creates her flawless signature look.

Since chopping off her long locks last year, Watson says she has developed an “experimental” relationship with makeup adding, “There’s no way to hide when you have short hair. You really have to go for it.”

Watson’s makeup staples consists of Giorgio Armani Beauty Luminous silk powder and Yves Saint Laurent’s Creme de Blush, because, as she puts it, “I am so pale and English.”  Love that.

Watson tops off her look with bold brows (she gets them threaded) and electrifying eyes inspired by 60′s fashion icon Twiggy.

Lookin’ good girl!

And still manages to look absolutely adorable!

After spending several semesters at Rhode Island’s Brown University, Harry Potter star Emma Watson recently decided to head back across the pond and enroll at a school a little closer to home – and, despite reports to the contrary,  it’s NOT because she was being bullied by classmates.

According to a rep for the actress,

Emma has enjoyed her time at Brown tremendously and made many friends there who she keeps in constant contact with… She has now decided to change university, but not for the bullying, as that is just completely untrue. She has just decided to continue with a different course…

The 21-year-old began classes at Oxford University this fall and appears to be enjoying focusing on her studies, so much so, that she took to her blog to announce to fans that she may be MIA for a little while.

To Everyone who is starting a New School Year, (sorry those who have been at school for a while Oxford starts late) Just to say have a great term and good luck with all your work… You might not hear from me for a while because I will be really busy studying but I wanted to just say hi and bye Hope you all like My Week With Marilyn and I’ll keep you posted on Perks [of being a Wallflower] . Love, Emma xx.

Like Emma, like Hermoine.  Isn’t it funny how life imitates art?

It’s got it’s own magic as Emma Watson gets a little flirty with a very good-looking guy in her new commercial for Lancôme Trésor Midnight Rose perfume.

The 21 year-old is paired with French model Cyril Descours in the new advertisement shot in March in Paris.

Watson confessed to not really loving fragrances all that much until this one.

“I didn’t really like perfumes before because I thought they were heavy, but this one is really light and playful,” she revealed.

“I feel lucky to embody a fragrance I am so crazy in love with.”

Watson and Descours filmed the ad campaign with Mario Testino and the actress said she loved the idea of life’s unexpected surprises.

“What I love about this story that we put together is that it’s almost fate, like chance, that brings the two of them together,” says the star.

“You never know what’s going to be around the corner. That’s what we wanted to get across in the fragrance: that life is magical with little surprises.”

The red carpet stretched from Trafalgar Square to Leicester Square so thousands of fans from all over the world could see the Harry Potter cast one last time for the premiere of the final film Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II.

Emma Watson wowed the crowd in a gorgeous fairy tale dress of tulle and embroidery from Oscar de la Renta and the 21 year-old actress kept her poise until the very end when she broke down in tears at the realization that the Harry Potter magic has come to an end.

Watson said of her time in the magical world “I’ve just had the most amazing 10 years of my life and I feel so grateful. I will miss Daniel [Radcliffe] and Rupert [Grint] so, so much. And I will miss Hermione so much, she was like my little sister.”

 

Emma spent time with fans before heading to the press area, taking photos and signing autographs along the way as so many had camped out for days to see the film and the beloved actors one last time.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II opens in the U.S. on July 15th.

Harry Potter star Emma Watson is the cover girl of the forthcoming August 2011 issue of Seventeen Magazine (check photo shoot + behind the scenes video below). Emma is a super cute artsy girl who is just trying to figure out what path she wants to take after the end of her Harry Potter experience.

The 21 year-old actress finally confessed she had a huge crush on her co-star Tom Felton, who plays Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter franchise. Really? Draco was Emma’s first crush? What about Harry? Bad boys are more fun!

Here are some highlights from Emma Watson’s Seventeen interview:

On celebrity crushes: “I’ve never understood having crushes on people who you don’t know in real life. I only crush on people I meet. I mean, I can appreciate that someone is good-looking, obviously, but I don’t intend to fantasize about people I don’t know!”

On Draco Malfoy: “For the first two movies, I had a huge crush on Tom Felton. He was my first crush. He totally knows. We talked about it – we still laugh about it. We are really good friends now, and that’s cool.”

On art: “If I hadn’t done Harry Potter, I would have gone and done years of art. I really do love it, and I’d love to write.”

“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2“, the eighth and final installment of the “Harry Potter” series, hits theaters on July 15, 2011.

Harry Potter star Emma Watson recently decided to leave the Brown University, sparking rumors that she was being bullied by her colleagues. The 21 year-old wanted to set the record straight and clean the image of Brown students.

WATCH: ‘Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 2′ Trailer

Emma was not bullied! Emma says was never bullied in her life, which I find it really hard to believe. Anyhow, Emma just wants to take some time off to try to figure out what to do with her life and the next step in her academic career.

Dear All,

I felt the need to let you all know the reason I took a semester off from Brown had nothing to do with bullying as the media have been suggesting recently. I have never been bullied in my life and certainly never at Brown. This ’10 points to Gryffindor’ incident never even happened. I feel the need to say this because accusing Brown students of something as serious as bullying and this causing me to leave seems beyond unfair.

Please don’t try and speculate about what I might do in September – no one can possibly know because I don’t even know yet! Like my other fellow Brown students I am trying to figure out my third year and whether or not I will spend it abroad (this is common).

I hope you all liked the new Harry Potter trailer. I am off to Pittsbugh soon to start “The Perks of being a Wallflower”. I’ve just got back from hanging out with Stephen Chobosky (the director and writer), Logan and Ezra (the two other principal actors) and I already know this is going to be an incredible experience. I feel very lucky.

Hope you are all doing good.

Take care,

Love Emma xx.

Best of luck, Emma!
