What's this? Kerry Washington debuted a new ombre hair color at the 2014 Emmy Awards on Monday evening.

The new hue is so subtle you might not have noticed upon first glance—so get a closer look—but the actress' ends are a definitely a lighter brunette shade. The last time Washington wore her hair down (at the 2014 BET Awards in June) she still had all raven tresses—Olivia Pope's signature look.

The lighter tint complemented her orange Prada dress, which will definitely make our best-dressed list. No word yet on whether the new shade is temporary or if it will be making an appearance on her ABC show this fall.
