The Thread on omg!Ashley Greene’s Secret for Looking Fab in a Photo
Anyone who's ever seen Ashley Greene in one of the "Twilight" films or on the cover of a magazine knows that the camera loves her. While celebrating her latest photo shoot for Lucky magazine's March issue at the exclusive Soho House in L.A., the pretty actress revealed her that trick for taking a great photograph has more to do with what she's feeling than the way she looks.
"I think [it's] just being comfortable and confident in your skin, and that just shines through. People know when you're really thinking about something that makes you happy versus when you're just pasting on a smile," the 24-year-old explained. "If you're taking a photo with your friends, I think it's all about being in the moment."
The star of the upcoming comedy "Butter," with Jennifer Garner and Olivia Wilde, admits that it doesn't hurt that she works with a lighting team, hair and makeup artists, and, of course, fashion stylists before she strikes a pose. But when the face of DKNY is responsible for her own look, Ashley said there are several current trends she's likely to don. She named jewel tones and bright lipstick to add a pop of color to any ensemble as two of her favorites. The Florida native is also a fan of wedges. "Part of it is I like outfits that can transform from day to night, and I think wedges can go from day to night, depending on what you're wearing," Ashley noted. "The floral prints I like a lot, too, which I think goes hand in hand with the jewel tones."
Whatever she's wearing, Ashley has become one to watch on the red carpet. Her career is flourishing, too, and, in addition to "Butter," her schedule includes "LOL," an upcoming comedy with Miley Cyrus and Demi Moore, and, of course, the final "Twilight" flick, "Breaking Dawn -- Part 2," which has already been shot and comes out November 16. She has mixed feelings about leaving the role of Alice Cullen behind. "I'm gonna miss Alice. She was such a fun, fun character to play, and she's become such a big part of my life -- you know, I've played her for four years -- and she's just kind of happy and perky, and it's a nice kind of role model for me, just to see how positive she is and how loyal she is," Ashley gushed. "I think saying bye [to the rest of the cast] is a little difficult. But most of us live in Hollywood, and we'll run into each other, and we also have each other's numbers, so all in all, I'm pretty positive about moving forward with the careers that 'Twilight' has given us this springboard to."
