I am no bird; and no net ensnares me; I am a free human being with an independent will.
Charlotte Bronte
For some reason, I instantly thought of “freedom” when I saw these pictures of Drew Barrymore in Harper’s Bazaar. She appears comfortable, carefree, and quietly confident in these simple pictures. One may accuse Drew of having a little too much freedom in her rebellious and reckless days growing up. But in the past few years, she has really seemed to settle down. She started her own production company and really took charge of the work she wanted to create. She also finally found her leading man, got married, and had a baby.
It seems that she is free because she may have finally found herself after all these years. Perhaps she was really able to find her own pace and herself because she had already experienced the rebellious freedom of a darker side of a childhood in the limelight. It goes to show that freedom doesn’t necessarily have to be about grand acts of defiance. It could also be about the comfort of finding yourself and being comfortable in your own skin.
So do you feel free?
Have a lovely week!
She’s marvellous, have loved her since a child!! Such a gorgeous woman too!! These are stunning. I hope you have a great week doll xx
I could definitely stand to be a bit more carefree/free. Have a wonderful week!
I’ve always liked drew, and she looks so relaxed and confident in these photos.
My gosh she looks AMAZING.
Motherhood agrees with her!!
Those Bronte sisters were exceptionally cool chicks and Ms Barrymore always struck me as the same xo
what a beautiful quote. and so true. the photos of drew go so well with the quote.
This is the best Drew has looked in recent years, I think you’re right, maybe one does have to go through certain life experiences to eventually reflect upon them, move past and find themselves.
I’d never seen that Bronte quote before, but really really like it. And I agree, it fits this shoot perfectly. I’ve always really liked Drew Barrymore, she always comes across as being so much more unique and fun than most actresses, fab images!!
i love drew barrymore! ever since i was a child. she’s gotten into some fine messes but always finds a way out. love this photo shoot of her. great!
