My girl crush…Kerry Washington. Yes! I love Scandal. I love seeing an African-American woman in a leading role on prime time, I can’t remember the last time. Now that the finale has aired I thought I’d take a moment to meander through Kerry’s fabulous fashion moments. Although her style is different from mine, I love and appreciate her muted “Olivia Pope” look and her personal style. She is one tight 36 year-old, 5’4″ bundle of sass and she is always on point. Every pic of her is fabulous, I can’t find one bad one. I love her hair, especially in the retro shoot she did. I don’t know how I am going to make it through the summer…I guess I can buy the season and watch it again.
A few years back I sent Reggie to my favorite detox spa We Care out in Palm desert for a weekend. I know we normally are always together, but We Care is an experience best had alone, as I said it is a “detox” spa and you will spend a lot of time in the bathroom…but any way getting back to the story as luck would have it Kerry Washington and her boyfriend at the time were there as well. We Care is an intimate spa with only a few guests each weekend, there is a common area where everyone gathers to get water, juice and soup, there is no restaurant, you are on a supervised fast. So Reggie being Reggie says to Kerry “Do I know you?”and of course she says “NO”, but by the end of the weekend she told him she was an actor, of course this was pre-Scandal. He said she was very personable and he was so flattered when he told her how old he was and she told him “Black don’t Crack”.
Are you a Scandal fan? What do you think about Kerry’s style?
