Damn, Michelle Williams Looks GOOD On The April Cover Of Elle UK

Damn, Michelle Williams Looks GOOD On The April Cover Of Elle UK

Cool mom alert!

Thirty-four-year old actress Michelle Williams is lighting up our life (and making us count down the seconds until spring) on the April cover of Elle UK. The Montana-born star is set to appear in next months' WWII-era film "Suite Française", which is a major departure from her days playing Jen Lindley on "Dawson's Creek."

Photographer Kerry Hallihan snapped Williams in Louis Vuitton on the cover of the mag and in a series of other drool-worthy looks for the editorial. Though the clothes are amazing, it was the blonde beauty's short, platinum 'do that we couldn't stop staring at.

See Michelle Williams’ full photo shoot and interview in the April issue of ELLE UK, on sale March 5 and also via the digital edition through Apple Newsstand.
