Kate Winslet has vowed not to "go into shops" anymore.
Kate Winslet won't shop anymore
The 'Lee' actress - who has Mia, 24, and Joe, 21, from previous marriages, and Bear, 11, with husband Edward Abel Smith - finds it too "stressful" going out to buy new clothes, so she is happy just to accept her son's cast-offs or pick up items from something she's worked on if she wants to add to her wardrobe.
She told HarpersBazaar.com: “My personal style, in a funny way, has not evolved much. I’ve always been a jeans, comfy t-shirt and nice jacket sort of girl.
"I have made a decision recently that I am not going to go into shops anymore. I find them stressful.
"When something new comes into my life it’s usually from a shoot or it’s something my son doesn’t want to wear anymore, usually an oversized jacket.”
The 48-year-old star is happy to dress up when she's on the red carpet, but comfort is still her priority or else she can't enjoy the event.
She said: "That’s a critical thing I’ve learned. When you’re on a red carpet, you’re wearing a dress that is corseted and boned, and you must stand and pose and sit in it for very long periods of time.
"It’s important to feel comfortable, otherwise you’re wishing the occasion away, desperately want[ing] to get home and put your pyjamas on, and that’s not the right way to feel."
Kate believes beauty is "more than a feeling" and it is important to "take care of youself from the inside".
She said: "I also have learned it’s important to take care of yourself from the inside – not just how you eat and look after yourself from a nutritional standpoint, but how you look after yourself from a mental wellness standpoint; how you feel about yourself emotionally, physically, your place within the world, how you walk through the world, how you live with integrity and sincerity.
“I think these things matter and these things come out in how we look, and of course in how we feel. Beauty is more of a feeling, rather than what we look at.”
