I can’t wait to see Reese Witherspoon’s new film Water for Elephants which is in theatres April 22nd and is based on the book of the same name by Sara Gruen.  She looks gorgeous in the trailer and also in the May 2011 issue of Vogue along side and top of some pretty pachyderms.  Rob Pattinson doesn’t look too shabby either! Reese is one of those women that other women root for in life and it was nice to see pick herself up and find even greater happiness after her divorce.  If she can do it, so can we!

    I’m excited to see this movie! I just need to fit reading the book in before it debuts-I enjoy reading the book first!

    Oh, she’s pretty, talented and seem to be a great person.

    I’m freaking out with the last picture… I don’t think she was that comfortable neither. LOL

    Have a great week.

    This is too perfect! I am doing a Pink Circus themed wedding vow renewal/b.day party and have been creating, buying and blogging about all the elements that will be included. Thank you for putting a smile on my face!

    Love that second image. Now I want a photo with an elephant in a designer gown. =)

    Reese is so naturally elegant and chic – even sitting on top of an elephant’s head! One of my all time favorite books and I can’t wait for the movie.

    Wow! What an amazing shoot! I’m so excited for the movie because I loved the book… but I find that the films are never as good.

    Here’s to hoping!

    Love the light and dreamy quality in these images. She looks gorgeous on the cover. Never thought I would see the words “circus chic” together, but, this spread completely pulls it off.

    Love this editorial. The styling is superb and I love how Reece has gone from ‘haus frau’ to fierce!

    She is just amazing. Thanks for sharing since I rarely get to read a magazine these days.

    Love it.

    To me, Resse Witherspoon is a ‘movie star.’ Classy, cool, sophisticated, and she seems very smart, and she’s always smiling! She is a rarity these days. How refreshing!
    Thanks for posting this. The elephants are quite lovely in their own right. 🙂

    My daughter worked for her management firm for a year and did some work directly with Reese. She said she is as lovely a person inside as she is outside. Thoughtful, fun, down to earth, and appreciative of work others do is how she described her. Nice to know she’s no diva!
