What’s your red carpet style?
It varies, which is what I find most fun about getting dressed for an event. I like to experiment and change depending on mood, but comfort is most important to me.
What are your three desert island beauty essentials?
Spf (Biotherm Lait Solaire), lip balm (Homeoplasmine or Aquafor), cuticle oil (Nuka or unrefined coconut oil).
What are your handbag essentials?
Reusable stainless steel or glass water bottle, sunglasses, hand cream or cuticle oil, lip balm, hair clips and pins, and current reading material.
What is the most treasured item in your wardrobe?
Jimmy Choo sunglasses, which are also my most often utilised.
Are there any items that you did or would like to steal from any of your character’s wardrobes?
Yes, I was able to keep a lot of clothes from Life Partners and Like Sunday, Like Rain. The characters were both casual dressers so they get a lot of wear.
How do you feel that your style has changed through the years?
Like anyone, I’ve gone through phases, but the biggest difference is that I’m less concerned with fashion for fashion’s sake. I find that I’m happiest when I’m comfortable in my favorite key items, so I just add or subtract from my tried and true items to create a certain look.
What are your tips for looking and feeling your best?
The most important aspect of emotional well-being for me is getting enough rest. I go to sleep and wake up early, and rest when I need, which is important in staying healthy when you have a hectic schedule. Stretching, staying hydrated and keeping my body in motion, even with a relaxing walk, is very equalizing.
What’s your off duty look?
Jeans and tees, jumpers, denim jacket, comfortable long skirt and sweater.
Who are your style icons?
Diane Keaton and Stevie Nicks.
