Whether it’s on-screen or on the red carpet, actress Thandie Newton simply has that je ne sais qoui. On her Hollywood agenda for the year is Starz airing the film adaptation of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie‘s novel Half of a Yellow Sun, which also stars Anika Noni Rose and Chiwetel Ejiofor. And Newton will reprise her role of FBI agent Grace on the second season of Direct TV’s “Rouge.” There has also been anticipation for the development of a Jimi Hendrix biopic called Jimi, which will be produced by Newton’s husband Ol Parker and will star her and Anthony Mackie in the title role.
The mother, wife, and humanitarian is also the co-founder of a beauty website, along with makeup artist Kay Montano, called ThandieKay, which conveys the message of diversity in beauty.
Newton handles everything on her plate with sophistication and poise, and her style reflects that. This summer, let this week’s Star Style, Thandie Newton, show you how to incorporate chic sophistication into your wardrobe or attitude.
