Loving Kate's Look


I think I have a crush on Kate Winslet. I saw photos like these in a magazine last week chronicling the story of her and her new boyfriend. I really, really like her new look.


She looks so youthful and stylish. I adore the clothes she is wearing too: very simple, relaxed and chic, and in the colours I love (non-colours really – black, denim, grey, navy). The magazine I read reported she had lost 4.5kg / 10 pounds. She looks slender and young, but not emaciated. In addition, her makeup is very natural, fresh and polished, and her hair is unfussy. She looks younger than she used to I think.


I admit, after seeing some photos like these for the first time last week I wore a black suit jacket over my jeans and grey knit top to go out in the weekend.


Is it weird to admit I looked up her details? I am happy to say she is a similar height to me and we are both Libra (never mind that she's five years younger). That must mean it's OK for me to copy her look.

  2. I think she is one of the most naturally stunning actresses out there today. She looks beautiful, but normal, if that makes sense. And I have long admired her style. And I too love these looks, rock them all the time in fact. Polished but comfy chic.

  3. Hostess and Kalee, I get that sense too, that she is very normal and grounded for an actress.

  6. I think she is so pretty! I like her understated style and the fact that she doesn't make a fool out of herself unlike a lot of celebrities. She's the total package.

  7. Fiona,
    I have often thought how much you remind me of Kate. So it did not surprise me in the least bit that you checked out her style. She is the real deal. I, too love the jeans with black jacket....

  9. Wow! She does look really good. She is one of those people that look great just being natural and relaxed. I'm sure it doesn't hurt that she's got a great-looking boyfriend too.

  10. Stephanie, you're right, she's always been quite sensible. I was surprised she is only 35, as she's been around so long (and has always dressed quite 'maturely', in my opinion). She looks more her age now.

    Bodeci and Dot, we're practically twins! Just kidding. Thanks for the compliment, I'll take it any day.

    Kamani, that's true. She suits the casual look. I've often thought she looks uncomfortable 'upholstered' in an evening dress with structured hair and full makeup.

    I'm afraid for her with the boyfriend though. I think he's in it for the profile. I'd love them to prove me wrong though.

  12. i love kate! she seems like she doesn't buy into all that hollywood nonsense...and, if i'm not mistaken...she doesn't even have a personal trainer

  13. I like the simplicity of her look. The evening wear is nice, but the casual day wear isn't smart enough for me.
    To me, it is the simple pair of sunglasses that makes it chic.

  14. Janet, I think her boyfriend is rather dishy too. Thank you for your compliment, but I have to ask, what are you smoking? And may I have some please?

    Ani, I agree, that's what makes her so appealing.

    Anon, I think her sunglasses add a touch of je ne sais quoi too. I really like her outfits because I am a more casual dresser. A good casual outfit is hard to find!

  15. Great style icon for you .... she's a class act. One of my all-time favorite actresses. I love how choosy she is in picking her roles and just about love every movie she's been in.
    She also has really shunned Hollywood and all its bs. A few years back she scoffed at reports that by Hollywood standards she was fat -- she said that is absurd!

  16. She looks fabulous in anything and I love that she is not the emaciated Hollywood girl. Such a natural beauty!

  17. Very attractive girl. I can see why you are inspired by her sense of fashion - so relaxed in an all American way. Have a sweet weekend;-)

  18. She's a great style icon for you.

  19. She does look wonderful and very happy. I must say, her new beau is a looker. Wow.
