Crushing On: KStew


She was never my favourite Hollywood star (it's called jealousy) and I know I'm not the only person to have taken a dislike to her, but despite plenty of industry insiders stating their distaste for Kristen Stewart, ever since she finally learned how to smile, she has been a regular fixture on fashion magazine covers and blogs. Fresh from having the world's first teaser trailer of Breaking Dawn pt 2 released earlier this week at Target stores in the US (in which we saw Bella join the Cullens as an immortal, complete with flawless skin, perfect hair and rose tinted lips).



K Stew has also been revealed as the July cover girl for Elle magazine, complete with previews of the 'Adventureland' stars shoot wardrobe. When she first burst onto our seen KStew was well known for her awkwardness, lack of smile and total nonchalance on the red carpet (she once turned up on the red carpet in just a hoodie, skinny jeans and sneakers).


Since then, the 21 year old star has evolved some what, the first look that changed her from 'moody teenager' to 'bad ass rock chick' was undoubtedly last years MTV Movie Awards when she some how managed to snare a dress from major brand Balmain which she chose to wear with black, pointed courts.


Since then, Kristen's been seen at the front row of more than one Fashion Week Show, consistently dazzled fans with an array of feminine dresses, become the face of a major fashion campaign and yes, even cracked a few smiles.


Despite her off duty uniform remaining the same (scruffy clothes, unbrushed hair) and Celebrity Stylists aparantley describing her as a 'Fashion Pariah' with one source even going as far as telling U.S Magazine 'She has grubby nails, ratty sneakers and a bad attitude.  Very few people want to work with her because she doesn't want to look good', it seems that high fashion designers still can't wait to send her their clothes.  Whilst she still has a tendency to change from heels to sneakers half way through premieres, it's nice to see her making an effort to be more in touch with the industry that she has worked in for so long.



She may have the boyfriend we all want, star in our favourite movies and have a wardrobe we'd kill for, but it seems all that just isn't enough to keep us from falling in love with her.  Our favourite look?  The 2009 MTV Movie awards.  The dress? Wrong. Belt? Wrong. Sneakers on a Red Carpet? Wrong.  On Kristen? So right.
