It's been quite a successful year for the actress as she won a Golden Globe as well as an the SAG award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role. And of course, her beautiful baby is on t he way.

In the gorgeous editorial we get to see Natalie in a different light than most mags allow us. Instead of lounging in a luxurious mansion as in the january Vogue, here she poses in nature, surrounded by weed ang relaxing on a barn while the sun sets behind her.

Natalie looks magnificent ,as always, and is wearing Spring/Summer 2011 designs by Ralph Lauren, Marc Jacobs, Dolce & Gabbana, Oscar de la Renta and others.

   On what qualities she looks for in a romantic partner: “I look for all the same things I would in a friend. Obviously, you need the sexual attraction too, so it’s like your best friend who you are also really attracted to.”

   On what she’d do if she could go unrecognized for a day: “I would make out in the park! [Laughs.] That’s the thing I would most enjoy doing in New York, and it’s something I’ll never do. I’d also have loud, public conversations with my friends about personal things. Even if no one is paying attention—and most of the time, no one cares—you never know who is at the next table.”

   On whether she thinks friends-with-benefits relationships can work: “I certainly have friends who could deal with that and others who could not. It’s something I’ve seen in high-achieving women - they compartmentalize. You’ve got your work, your friends, your exercise, and your sex. [Grins.] You can tick off those boxes.”
