Anna Paquin’s Smile: A Lesson in Self-Love and Acceptance

In a 2012 interview with Zooey Magazine, Anna explained why she has no plans to get cosmetic surgery to fix her teeth.

Interestingly enough, I don’t really care about my teeth, but I think any woman on this planet could say, ‘I wish my ass was smaller, my arms were thinner and I had green eyes not brown.’

I think anyone is as critical as they have the energy to self-obsess, but I also know as an actress you are more limited if you interfere with your looks.

If you have a whole bunch of work done with your teeth and your face and your boobs then you’re only going to play modern people. That’s a big choice to make. Very limiting.

The Allure of Authenticity: Anna Paquin’s Natural Beauty at Vanity Fair

Anna Paquin loves wearing black heels on the red carpet, so I didn’t think much of it when she wore these simple, chunky black velvet pumps to the 2011 Vanity Fair Oscar Party.

The True Blood actress styled them with a Monique Lhuillier laser-cut shredded skirt dress.

But it was one photo that made me reconsider and do a double-take.

We’re trained to spot even the most minute shoe details here on Your Next Shoes, and that hint of red peeking out from behind Anna Paquin’s heel was a promise of much better things beneath the surface.

I wasn’t disappointed. My quick research brought these from-the-back pictures of Anna Paquin at the 2011 Vanity Fair Oscar Party. As soon as I laid eyes on these, I immediately regretted my initial disregard for Anna Paquin:

That red bow running down the back of the heel of Anna Paquin’s pumps is a detail unmistakably Brian Atwood. That red bow running down the back of the heel of Anna Paquin’s pumps is L-O-V-E.

Sigh. Anna Paquin’s pumps are the Brian Atwood ‘Donna’ ribbon-embellished platform pumps from the Fall 2010 collection. The black patent leather version of these retailed online for as much as over $700 when they were available.
