Anne Hathaway: Beauty Is About Finding Balance

Gorgeous and radiant, all that doe-eyed Anne Hathaway sees of herself are weird features. She thinks she's not very pretty but it's not as important as authenticity.


Blooming like a spring flower in the March cover of InStyle magazine (to hit stands this Friday), Anne Hathaway shares:

"I think I've got really weird features. I have very large features on a very small head. But, you know, I'm not going to beat myself up. It's my face. I'm not very pretty. But that's OK because I do know that I look like myself, and I think at the end of the day, as nice as pretty is, authenticity is more important."

Beauty for this 27-year-old actress is striving for equilibrium. She maintains her figure by working out to balance her curves with tone. For her personal style, she embraces the tomboy-by-day, glamazon-by-night approach.

"If I don't work out at all, I have too much curve and no tone — which is not OK. It's about finding balance.

"In the evening it would never occur to me to go out in motorcycle boots like this (referring to the black Burberry pair she wears during the interview). I love going out in high heels and dressing up and glamming it up, and having there be a distinction between what happened throughout the day and the evening."

Anne Hathaway also finds style inspiration in the Hollywood icons who she believes to demonstrate "innovation and originality" and this includes Marc Jacobs (her all-time favorite designer), Tilda Swinton, Selma Blair, Natalie Portman, Gwen Stefani, and Lady Gaga.

"I like people who are true to themselves," she says.

Fashion War: Anne Hathaway Vs Kate Hudson

If you think Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson are just battling in their new film, Bride Wars, think again.


The two adorable Hollywood actresses are not just quarreling for the perfect wedding in the romantic comedy Bride Wars, they're also into some kind of fashion war as they battle it out during the Bride Wars photo calls.

First on the press trail for their film, Kate Hudson came in Temperley leather pencil skirt and Anne Hathaway wore the nice-fitting jeans and a mumsy wrap cardi. The press was quick to assume there's a styling competition going on.

Then in a photo call in Paris, both ladies came in killer heels. Anne Hathaway matched her “devilish” red shoes with a beige dress with teeny corset waist. Kate Hudson, on the other hand, posed for the camera in a belted Louis Vuitton dress with jewels on the hem.


There's definitely a fashion catfight going on! Who do you think will win in the raging fashion war, Anne Hathaway or Kate Hudson?
