‘Basic’ is certainly not the word to describe the kind of life Lily Collins is living right now. Following the success and massive fanbase of the Netflix binge-worthy television series Emily in Paris which she shepherds as title character and producer, Collins is on a roll and her Paris voyage appears not to be ending anytime soon with already a greenlight for season four.

Undeniably, the British-American actress has had her fair share of fame with a couple of features and lead roles here and there before Emily in Paris, but coming onboard this titillating and shamelessly addictive Netflix series may just be the highlight of her career, and fans are here for every moment.

From an over-the-top, coveted fashions to frequent soirees and late night outings coupled with hot and heavy complicated romances in the city of love, Collins’ character Emily Cooper may just be living the dream. Offscreen, Collins is also living a very successful and pretty interesting life that even Cooper would approve of.
