#WCW (Woman Crush Wednesday) – Carmen Ejogo

Some of my style crushes and favourite don’t get covered enough on Art Becomes You or anywhere else for that matter. So come Wednesdays, I’ll indulge in a mini eulogy of some very worthy stylish and inspirational women out there. My first official #WCW is the beautiful Carmen Ejogo.

Carmen is British actress and singer whose latest role as Coretta King in Selma has seen terrific feedback so far. Her father is Nigerian and her mom is Scottish. She’s my #WCW because she’s beautiful, talented and very poised!

I would describe her style as polished, modern and elegant. Midi dresses with delicate detailing, feminine embellishments and understated sexiness are usually her style choices.

I also get a sultry vibe from her style at times. At 41, she is one vixen of a lady!

Her beauty game is consistent. She favours honey-dyed tresses and they favour her! She is currently working a shorter bob cut which I think really brings out her cheek bones. Her makeup is usually minimal with the occasional bold colour.

Go Carmen!

Who’s your #WCW? Stay tuned for next Wednesday.
