Even on down days, the future Mrs George Clooney manages to rock the ripped jeans and sweater combination. Of course, George's square-cut, seven carat diamond ring makes the perfect accessory too! Image: Filmmagic/Reuters
If you haven’t heard the news already, Hollywood’s eternal bachelor George Clooney is finally off the market for good and we give our (completely unnecessary) stamp of approval. The girl in question is 36 years-old gorgeous British lawyer Amal Alamuddin who some of you may know as the lawyer for WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. Call us superficial but we're even more impressed by her red carpet worthy style; be it in a pair of ripped boyfriend jeans or a simple yet sweet pink frock (below), Amal always manages to look effortlessly chic and sophisticated. I’m sure that even the most loyal of fangirls would agree that she’s a much better choice than any wannabe actress or random waitress from Paris or Vegas.
Our celebrity crush on the future Mrs Clooney is not just brought on by her stellar fashion taste or professional accolades, however. Here’s three reasons why Amal is our new personal hero.
1. She’s a 21st-century 'Wonder Woman'
It’s frustrating that in this day and age, women are still getting flak for having a successful career in their thirties but no ring on their finger. So with that said, I sincerely thank you, Amal, for proving that having drive in your career definitely does not hurt your chances at marital happiness. Take that, nosy aunties and Princeton moms!
2. She’s got guts
You’ve got to hand it to her; be it in her fashion sense or her colourful career, Amal has shown that she’s not afraid of taking risks. Not everyone has what it takes to rock bold prints with metallic lace-ups (below) or represent some of the most controversial figures around like former Libyan intelligence chief Abdullah al-Senussi, Colonel Gaddafi’s former right-hand man, who is accused of numerous atrocities against his people. We really have nothing but respect for you, Amal.
3. She made George Clooney eat his words
Does anyone remember how George once said that he’d never marry again? Famous last words, for this eternally single Hollywood bachelor evidently couldn’t resist the charms of the amazing Amal Alamuddin either. Let’s just hope she’ll change his mind about children too because I’ll bet you this gorgeous couple would produce a baby to rival the adorable royal baby Prince George.
