Oh. My. Word. It isn't often that I just stop and stare. As someone who spends about four hours a day, everyday, on the picture and news feeds, I am not often utterly gobsmacked by a set of images. But these incredible pics of Oscar nominated actress Viola Davis for LA Times Magazine from the weekend, made my week. How bloody stunning?!

With her natural hair, her beautiful features just highlighted with a hint of make up and and her glorious skin bronzed and glistening, Viola looks ten years younger and more gorgeous than models half her age. Seriously. Have you ever seen a transformation like this.

it's not that she doesn't always look lovely. It's just that this is exceptional. Dressed in Marchesa on the cover, Jason Wu in that standing picture and a smattering of Theirry Mugler, Viola makes a powerful fashion statement, Unexpected and a real treat. Yay Viola. Rock on.
