Kerry Washington has an effortless beauty. I love that her glam isn’t glaring, but subtle and soft. Talk about epitome of effortless chic. The Scandal star’s beauty is on full display in the April issue of Marie Claire.
For the cover, Kerry posed in a white sheer beaded blouse and black slacks. Her hair was tousled with beach waves. Inside she dished on her style secrets, Scandal, and keeping her personal life private.
“Earlier in my career I was much more super-sharey. There were moments when I wanted to process things that were happening to me more privately, and I didn’t have the space to do it, because once you let people in, they’re in and you don’t get to say, ‘Oh, I want this for myself.’
The actress also opened up and shared some of her insecurities as a little girl, and what she hopes her daughter Isabelle.
“I just want [daughter Isabelle] to know that she’s heard. Really heard, because I feel like that is what we all really want. When I think about any of the missteps in my life that I’ve made, all of which I’m grateful for, it’s because I just so wanted to be truly seen and heard for who I am and was afraid I wasn’t or wouldn’t be. I see you, I hear you, I’m with you as you are.”
The full story will appear in the April issue, which hits newsstands March 24th.
