TBT - Viola Davis Edition

Forget thigh gaps, model friends and enough selfies to fill a book - how about happy as the #squadgoal?

Let me say one thing, right off the bat. Viola Davis is a queen.  Juilliard-trained, she is as multi-faceted as a diamond, and shines just as brightly, in spite of a system in place that handpicks the same kinds of jewels over and over again. Her career started on the stage before her transition to the screen and she is both a Tony-award winner and a SAG award winner.  Her most recent triumph has been her role as the deeply flawed, sometimes unlikeable but always compelling Annalise Keating on "How To Get Away With Murder" and she continues to cement her A-list status and wow us with her immense talent.  She is also a producer, having founded  JuVee Productions with her husband Julius Tennor, and to date they have both short and feature-length films under their belts.

How refreshing is it to read then, that in Hollywood, where marriages can have the shelf-life of yogurt stored on a windowsill in July, Viola renewed her vows for a second time over the Valentine Day weekend? 

Beautifully happy!

For her first wedding in 2003, she admitted to wearing an off-the-rack skirt from Express; for her first vow renewal she wore a more 'traditional' wedding dress. But the third time was definitely a fashion charm, as she wore a custom Carmen Marc Valvo dress that was perfection and romance rolled into one stunning package. Hew vow renewal just happened so it's not technical a 'throwback' wedding but the idea and sentiment behind the renewal is a nod to a notion we think is long-gone and from days long ago - the concept of til' death do us part, one marriage, for keeps.  Isn't love grand?

*~I Do! I do, I do, I do, I do I do! Viola Davis' renewal warms my heart!~*

Wishing you a day as limitless as you are~
