In the past year, actress Kerry Washington has silently emerged as a worthy contender in the style stakes. Her ability to pull off contrasting looks has earned her lots of brownie points as well as tons of coverage in the fashion mags.

But what we love most about Washington is her honesty. She readily admits that she hates shopping and that all her “fabulousness is down to the efforts of a stylist. Whether she’s glowing in Chanel, Oscar de la Renta or Prada, we have to admit that we love her style!
