The Hollywood Reporter hosted its Annual Women In Entertainment Breakfast on Wednesday, and the guest list included our favorite leading ladies in Hollywood. So, of course, we had our eyes glued to the grey carpet to catch the stylish starlets strut their stuff before heading into Milk Studios in Los Angeles, California.

American Son actress Kerry Washington made the task worthwhile because she inspired us with the perfect hairstyle for the holiday season.

The Netflix star graced the grey carpet with her chestnut-colored strands wrapped into waist-length Senegalese twists and adorned in gilded ornaments that put us in a festive mood.
