Kerry Washington Gossip

Sometimes, when a look is so good, I feel violent. Like I want to whip around a room smashing things to properly express how f-cking rad an outfit is. Because a fist pump just doesn’t seem like it’s enough, you know?  This is what happened when I saw Kerry Washington show up at the Vanity Fair Oscar party and I knew, I knew it had to be the Outfit of the Week but it also took a lot of patience not to write about it until now when we do the OOTW posts. Full Story

There weren’t a lot of fashion risks last night at the Globes. Few people really went for it, you know? So big ups to Kerry Washington because this Altuzarra look was definitely not safe. There’s no safety when you’re basically just wearing a suit jacket with nothing underneath but a body rope. Full Story

When the first look for the film adaptation of Little Fires Everywhere was released, I wrote about my excitement for the project, particularly the book’s themes of perfectionism, artistry, privilege, post-partum depression, and estrangement. Full Story

Let’s start with Kerry Washington because sometimes, with some outfits, they can do 90% of the work on their own. And with other outfits, it all depends on the person to sell the sh-t out of it. This is what Kerry Washington did last night on the Emmys red carpet – she sold the sh-t out of the white shirt and the sequined pants, flipping her ponytail around, flirting with the camera. Full Story

Are you watching season 2 of Big Little Lies? I enjoyed the first season but didn’t need a second season. The premiere seemed forced (like the hokey nightmares sequences). That cast can sell those characters, absolutely, I just don’t know if the storyline will support the talent. (Why don’t any of these people move? Or at the very least, switch schools?)   But that doesn’t mean BLL’s second season isn’t deserved. Full Story

I loooove Kerry Washington and I frequently love what she wears. Especially in her Scandal period her work wardrobe was so cashmere sleek that she got to play more on carpets – especially those where she was just a presenter or a guest. Relatively low pressure seemed to work well with her creativity, and I really enjoyed seeing what she’d come up with. Full Story

I saw If Beale Street Could Talk at TIFF. It crushed me. Love is HARD. Love is often sold to us as easy, too easy. “Love is all you need.” If only that could be the truth.  But while love is complicated at the best of times, as Kathleen often says, borrowing a quote from Vulture’s Dee Lockett Full Story

All night I kept trying to figure out why people seemed so much more comfortable this year at the Met Gala. Is it just me? Didn’t they all look and seem that much more comfortable? My theory is that because of the theme, they were, ironically perhaps, liberated from having to do the sheer and lace and skin thing. Full Story

Olivia Pope’s walk is impressive. It commands respect and attention. Olivia Pope doesn’t just walk, she stomps. She powers through hallways and struts down sidewalks. With force. With influence. With resolute confidence. For seven seasons, Olivia Pope’s walk has been so impressive that there have been gifs, memes and Tumblr accounts dedicated to it. Full Story

It’s always a good day when there are new photos of Kerry Washington. She always delivers that GIMME DAT style porn. Here she is in New York City this morning for her appearance on Good Morning America. Give me all of it. Both coats. Both pairs of sunglasses. Full Story

Kerry Washington's dress, with all those colours blending together, an impressionist painting, shimmering by the beach. (The Spirit Awards happen at the beach.) Elevated beach, obviously. But there's still something breezy about this look, don't you think?  Even with the booties. Full Story
