Casual day out: Emma Watson sports tracksuit bottoms and trainers for a day at the cinema with her friends


In a few months her face will once again be gracing cinema screens worldwide when the final instalment of Harry Potter is released in July.

But today Emma Watson, who was recently revealed to be worth over £32million, was happy to sit back and be entertained as she took in a film with her pals in Pittsburgh.

The dressed-down actress looked miles from the red carpet glamour she wears so well, keeping it casual in tracksuit bottoms and trainers.

Emma has also been keeping busy in between filming with trips to the gym.

She was spotted arriving for a workout over the weekend dressed in Lycra leggings and zip-up jumper, her short crop pushed back with a headband.

Her new role is departure for Emma, who became a household name playing bookish, intellectual Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter franchise.

She plays high school senior Sam in the film, adapted from the 1999 book by Stephen Chbosky.

Sam and step-brother Patrick take protagonist Charlie under their wings and expose him to their hard-partying, drug-fuelled world.

The hard-hitting storyline deals with suicide, abortion, homosexuality and child abuse.

The Perks Of Being A Wallflower is slated for release next year.

Slow down Emma, you’re only 21!

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Not so magic: Emma Watson, who turned 21 today, looked a bit old before her time in her birthday message to her fans on her official website


She might have millions in the bank and a bright future ahead of her - but fashionista Emma Watson missed the sartorial mark when she sent a birthday video message to her fans today to celebrate her 21st.

The Harry Potter star looked somewhat frumpy and dowdy with a rather bouffanty version of her short crop that looked a bit too middle-aged for her elfin features.

Her overall look wasn't helped by a rather nondescript black v-necked top and necklace in the arty-looking black and white clip.


Fashionista: Emma also confirmed her role today as an 'ambassadress' for French beauty brand Lancome


Posting on her official website, Emma also revealed that she had just been named as a new face of make-up brand Lancome.

She said: 'Just a quick message to say thank you for all the Birthday wishes and gifts you’ve sent. I’m continually overwhelmed by the support from you all. It means so much to me, so thank you very much.

'Turning 21 is a significant occasion for everyone, and it’s proved to be quite a milestone...this year I plan to continue pursuing my love of fashion, working as an ambassadress for Lancôme.'

In her video meanwhile, Emma revealed she had also been hard at work learning an American accent for her forthcoming new movie Perks Of Being A Wallflower.

She gushed: 'You guys are absolutely amazing. So yeah, it's turning out to be quite a big year in a way and I just want to say so much for all of your continuing support.

'You've been absolutely amazing and a real comfort and I'm very grateful to you all. Yeah, I'm 21! Crazy, crazy! Thank you so much!'

In a press announcement released yesterday, French beauty house Lancome said: 'Thanks to her charm, romanticism and her incredible modernity, Emma Watson has become the icon of her generation.

'We are delighted by this new collaboration.'

Emma follows in the footsteps of other renowned actresses, such as Julia Roberts, Penelope Cruz, Kate Winslet and Anne Hathaway, who have also starred in campaigns for the brand.

Meanwhile, Emma has also spoken about the forthcoming Royal Wedding, saying she feels sorry for Kate Middleton.

She claims she understands the amount of 'pressure' that Prince William's bride-to-be is under, having just taken a year out of her study at the prestigious Brown University on Rhode Island due to the stress she was under trying to juggle public and private life.

Speaking to the Associated Press, Watson says she sympathises with Middleton's hectic build up to the wedding, saying, 'Poor girl. That must be an incredible amount of pressure. I hope she's enjoying it. Must be intense.'

Kate is set to marry Prince William on April 29.

Emma Watson is currently also busy with promotional duties for the final two Harry Potter movies. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 is released on DVD in the U.S. today.

Emma Watson launches her final collection for People Tree by squeezing into some fairtrade denim hotpants

By JESSICA SATHERLEY

Ethical fashion: Emma models her third and final collection for fairtrade label People Tree, which hits stores on February 28 to coincide with Fairtrade Fortnight


Style icon Emma Watson has continued to take a stand for ethical fashion by slipping on some fairtrade denim hotpants to launch her third and final collection with People Tree.

The Harry Potter actress has been vocal about her stance on fairtrade clothing for years, which she exhibits by modelling her latest spring/summer collection for the brand.

The 20-year-old not only models and designs for the company, but she also travelled to Bangladesh to see the collection being made by the locals.

Emma said: ‘The design process continued with me trying on each and every piece to get the fits just as I wanted them, and then I visited Bangladesh to see the clothing actually being made and meet the people making it.

‘It was an incredible and life-changing experience. I wish everyone had the chance to see the difference Fairtrade makes.’

Watson’s full spring/summer collaboration with People Tree is being launched to coincide with Fairtrade Fortnight, which starts February 28.

In the photoshoot Emma teamed up her ethical Daisy Dukes with a beige cotton waistcoat and scarf as she posed in a summer field.

The collection also boasts her long-sleeved mini-dress, which she showed off next to an old fashioned motorbike.

And Emma also showed off her dresses for the brand, with the range that includes fabrics printed with checks, polka dots and floral designs.

She designed the collection last year while attending university and said: ‘People Tree’s founder, and Misato, People Tree’s designer, came out to work with me in Rhode Island.

‘Together we decided on all the colours, fabrics, shapes and craft skills. Most of all, we took care to design a really wearable collection that truly celebrates the traditional skills of People Tree’s Fairtrade groups around the world.’

Fairtrade Fortnight runs from February 28 to March 13 and was created by the Fairtrade Foundation to invite designers to produce scarves using fairtrade cotton.

Designers who have joined the Collective include Marios Schwab and Hussein Chalayan for Puma, Julie Verhoeven, Tim Soar, David David and Ada Zanditon.
