This shining star and influential women's rights activist sure knows how to stun the world using both her words and fashion.

This actress loves her monochrome wardrobe, as you'll see. Fashioning a frilly white off-shoulder top and a minimalist choker, Emma Watson probably knows that this modest ensemble is enough to wow the crowds.

Looking all formal and dolled up, Emma Watson sure knows how to make heads turn, even on a perfectly normal day out and about in the city. This light grey dress, accompanied by some neutral accessories, is the perfect solution to simple and fashionable!

The winner of the British Style Award certainly has to look stylish at the event, doesn't she? This low V angelic white jumpsuit accentuates all the right curves and makes her a stunner!

We don't know how she does it. How does Emma Watson manage to look great all the time? A pantsuit definitely isn't one that's easy to pull off, but boy is it working on her! Perhaps it's her svelte figure, perhaps that mysterious smile, or perhaps... it's just Emma Watson!

This was the week when Watson used her press tour of her film Regression not only to promote the movie but also to advocate against unethical fashion. So now we know that besides looking flawless in this feminine patterned dress, Watson only patronises stores by designers who don't use fur or environmentally harmful chemicals in producing their clothes!

You know, you can't just look good at red carpet events; you have to be in style on the streets as well. Emma Watson shows us how important this is as she steps out of her car in a little black jumpsuit and a khaki coat - très chic!

Emma Watson
We absolutely love this classy outfit that the Hollywood star has chosen to don for the premiere of Colonia. White on white doesn't necessarily need to look as ghostly as it sounds, as long as you pair it well with a range of lengths and some feminine white pumps.

Emma Watson
This is perhaps not one of her more outstanding outfits, but Emma Watson sure knows what's appropriate and what's not. A simple dress for a formal media event seems to be the way to go for this style star.

Attending the 102nd White House Correspondents' Dinner in a floral dress over pants, Watson showed that you don't always have to follow the trends to look gorgeous. This outfit brings out both her feminine side and powerful influence over the media. We believe she really slayed it that night.

Emma Watson
Remember this dress and Emma Watson laughing over how she's "changing the world one dress at a time"? Collaborating with Calvin Klein to create a dress made with recycled plastic bottles and organic silk and cotton, Watson really is showing the world what sustainable fashion truly means.

Emma Watson, a name that is no stranger to all, is currently taking the world by storm with her amazing acting skills and absolute conviction towards women's rights worldwide. Who knew the Harry Potter star would live up to her name in the series and turn out to be such an intelligent Brown University alumnus? Besides appearing in films and behind the podium, Watson has also appeared as the face of Lancôme and has modelled for big magazine names like Cosmopolitan and People. Her style has also been awarded by Elle and the British Fashion Awards, proving that you can indeed achieve it all.

Although she's going to take a year-long break in acting starting this year to focus on her women's rights work, we're so grateful she hasn't quit acting altogether - because, seriously, what would the silver screen do without her? She certainly isn't intending to disappear from the Hollywood scene completely. Look out for her as Belle in the upcoming Beauty and the Beast movie in 2017. It's going to be an exciting production!

Face it, we have lots to learn from this superstar, in terms of passion and fashion. She's taught us many things, one of them being to always strive for what you love, but do it in style.
