No, this is not a photo shoot. No, Blake Lively is not made-up, ready for her close up. This is just Blake Lively going about her normal day, walking the dog in the park near where she is currently staying in LA. No wonder she was recently recruited to be a face of beauty brand L'Oreal Paris.

Oh, and in case you think that Blake is dressed down for a dog walk, you would be quite wrong. That is a R65,000 Gucci ostrich skin handbag that she is toting around with her. Gulp.

I think that this makes things easier for us mere mortals. I mean it is quite evident that Blake Lively is not a normal girl. She is quite obviously made of starrier, more magical stuff. There is no way she would look like this in her make-up free, walk the dog, go about her day get up unless she was made entirely of magic. And we are not. So. There it is. Irrefutable logic to cheer you through your day. Carry on.
