Emma Watson, Harry Potter's Girl

Emma Watson.

Emma Charlotte Duerre Watson (born in Paris, France on 15 April 1990) was an unknown schoolgirl a decade or more ago when she was picked out of obscurity to star in the "Harry Potter line of films. Now that she is all grown up and has left the child actress roles behind, Emma has branched out into a variety of different activities.

For instance, Emma took up modeling for Burberry in 2009. She continued her modeling career with People Tree. While continuing to act and receiving praise for her performances in such films as "The Bling Ring," Emma took on some responsibilities behind the camera as Executive Producer of "Queen of the Tearling," in which she stars as Kelsea Glynn.

While developing her Hollywood and modeling careers, Watson continues taking college courses when she has the opportunity.

Emma is an interesting person even aside from her fame as an actress. By all indications, she is a dedicated worker who goes the extra length to get things done. The story is told that one of the Harry Potter directors, Alfonso Cuarón, asked the three child leads of "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" to write an essay about their Potter characters from a first-person perspective.

It was a fascinating idea, with great possibilities for posterity. Daniel Radcliffe turned in a neat, one-page response that directly answered the question. Rupert Grint didn't even complete the assignment. Emma Watson, the over-achiever, wrote a 16-page novel that not only answered that question but also probably half a dozen others that hadn't been asked as well and posed a few of her own.

Emma has a thing for leather boots (and see below).

This girl was admitted to Brown University, one of the most prestigious schools in the world. That doesn't just happen to your standard Hollywood wannabe. Clearly, Emma Watson was raised right.

Regardless of all that, fortunately for us, it seems that Emma has a thing for leather. She is photographed in it all the time, which is a natural part of being a gorgeous model, but she wears it on her own time as well. Below is a sampling of shots of our Hermione at various ages, out and about in her fabric of choice, leather.

Just out and about in nice red leather pants.

A typical airport scene, casual look in brown leather. Interesting that she's all bundled up, yet wearing sandals, perhaps for comfort on the plane.

A film set, "The Bling Ring" I believe.

An obvious advert shot. Emma looks great in the long leather coat and with the ginormous bag.

It's nice that big stars can still get out and about without too much bother.

Not the highest quality photo, to be sure, but it seems a very genuine reaction shot.

She's still such a kid, great to see the enthusiasm.

A closer shot than the earlier version of this, both this close-up is adorable.

Emma Watson Wearing Boots

While many of the above pictures show Emma wearing leather boots, here is a special section devoted to Emma and her love of boots.

The lighter hair color goes well with her outfit.
