The model and actress kept her beauty look minimal, with her brunette hair tied back in a bun, and a soft, smoky eye.

Emily recently opened up about being called an โ€œattention whoreโ€ for what she chooses to wear.

โ€œCommenters said I had โ€˜an excess of beauty and lack of brainโ€™ and told me to โ€˜shut up and show us your tits,โ€ she told Glamour magazine.

โ€œBut I was also criticized in a very specific way โ€” for seeking attention. They wrote me off as โ€˜a desperate attention whore,โ€™ saying I was taking part in the conversation only because everybody else was too,โ€ she continues.

The Gone Girl star then explains that she is perceived differently because sheโ€™s a woman, not a man. 

โ€œI realised then that Iโ€™ve been called an attention whore so often that I had almost gotten used to it. And as women we are accused of seeking attention more than men are, whether for speaking out politically, as I did, for dressing a certain way, or for even posting a selfie.

โ€œOur culture has a double standard that runs so deep, many women have actually built up an automatic defense โ€” attempting to be a step ahead of potential critics by making sure we have โ€˜realโ€™ reasons for anything we say or do.โ€

She concludes the article by pointing out that women do not owe any explanations to anyone.

โ€œWe shouldnโ€™t have to apologise for wanting attention either. We donโ€™t owe anyone an explanation. Itโ€™s not our responsibility to change the way we are seenโ€”itโ€™s societyโ€™s responsibility to change the way it sees us.โ€
