"Isabelle Fuhrman knows a thing or two about balancing work, school, and play. In addition to filming major movies like Orphan and The Hunger Games, the actress has kept a full academic schedule. As a bonafide fashion darling, she's been featured in major mags, including yours truly. And on top of her packed schedule, she still manages to read plenty of good books in her downtime.\n\nWho better, then, to be the face of Kipling's latest back-to-school collection? This fall, the brand\u2014known for their durable designs, cheerful colors, and fuzzy gorilla keychains\u2014will debut campus-ready backpacks and totes in brand new patterns and bright hues with a super cute ad campaign starring Isabelle herself. We caught up with the busy star to get the scoop on her summer must-haves, first-day-of-school styling tips, and how she keeps her busy agenda in check.\n\nClick through to get a first look at the cheerful new ad images, and check out an exclusive video for all the details on this cool collaboration.\n\nHow does it feel to be an ambassador for Kipling?\n\n It's pretty cool! School has always been a very important part of my life and I am really excited for this collaboration. When I first moved to Los Angeles, I had a wheelie Kipling backpack. I took it with me everywhere, even on set to film Orphan\u2014I still have it!\n\nFashion-wise, it's been a big year for you! How would you describe your personal style?\n\n It's always evolving. Currently, I love classic silhouettes with a bit of a modern edge. All of the spring shows were very '60s inspired, so I've been incorporating those elements\u2014like A-line dresses, well-tailored trousers and Twiggy eye makeup\u2014into my wardrobe.\n\nDo you have any summer style essentials?\n\n Every girl needs a cute romper. It's a whole outfit in one! Aside from that, my must-haves are a flowy dress, a pair of red Converse, paraben-free sunscreen, Dior Addict lip gloss, mod sunglasses, Bumble and Bumble surf spray, and a really good book. Right now, I am reading Summer Crossing by Truman Capote.\n\nBetween school and a full-fledged acting career, you've got a lot on your plate. How do you manage to stay focused but still have fun?\n\n I take time to be bored. I get some of my best ideas that way, and that's how I focus my mind. I have a journal that helps me organize my thoughts\u2014I love keeping my analog and digital thoughts separate. I like having a lot of projects going on at once so I can bounce between them\u2014that's when the magic happens! One of my favorite authors calls it \"productive procrastination.\"\n\nSounds like you've got it down to a science! Any advice for teens who are also juggling school, work, and extracurriculars?\n\n I'm still figuring it out! But I think that organization and time management are a very, very big part of it.\n\nAs the face of a back-to-school campaign, do you have any first-day-of-school style tips?\n\n For me, it's about being comfortable and confident, especially since I had a uniform at my old school. I would always pick out my outfit the night before\u2014well, actually a week before!\u2014because I had to decide on a cardigan and shoes to go with it! Having a cool backpack was very important because that was the only part of my uniform that I could do whatever I wanted with."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
