The Bob

"A well dressed woman, even though her purse is painfully empty, can conquer the world." - Louise Brooks

The very first flapper! She had great style that was rebellious and modern. I've never seen a bob done better.

Liz

"One problem with people who have no vices is that they're pretty sure to have some annoying virtues." - Elizabeth Taylor

 Stunning.

Schooled

"My generation tends to play it cool these days." - Carey Mulligan

 One of the best new actresses today in my opinion.

Full of Grace

"I don't like yelling and fighting, and I can't quarrel." - Grace Kelly

 What can I say about Grace? She's the word itself. Her beauty seems unintentional and relaxed. When I look at her none of her features really stand out, like, say, Elizabeth Taylor or Barbra Streisand. Her face is an beautiful blend of ordinary features.

Funny Girl

"I am simple, complex, generous, selfish, unattractive, beautiful, lazy, and driven." - Barbra Streisand

 One the most entertaining women to watch in my opinion. I like that she isn't conventionally pretty.

Cruzin

"You cannot live your life looking at yourself from someone else's point of view." -Penelope Cruz

Whenever I see her on screen I believe every word she says. She seems so invested in her work and she probably has the best hair in the world.

She's No Angel

"It's better to be looked over than overlooked." - Mae West

 America's first bad girl! She was arrested under obscenity charges in 1926 for writing and starring in the broadway play entitled Sex. She was provocative and loved to break the rules which is why we love her.

Golden Girl

"We can't hold on to our youth, but what you can hang on to is all the things we've been told a zillion times: you have to find the light in your life that you had when you were a little girl or little guy that made you happy." - Goldie Hawn

 Love those huge eyes! She's the only woman who made being ditzy not so annoying and hilarious. The best part is that she's actually very intelligent and talented. Ya know she won an Oscar?

La Vie En Rose

"My parents always told me that if you want something, you can do whatever you have to do to get it. As long as it's not against someone else." - Marion Cotillard

 She absolutely beautiful, a hell of an actress, she can sing, she's smart, she has great style and she's French!

All About Bette

"I am just too much." - Bette Davis

I've always thought Bette Davis was beautiful in a non obvious sort of way. I think her kind of beauty is more interesting than the girl next door kind. It's hard to find just one picture that captures her look because she looks so different in every one of them.

Crown Affair

"I'm kind of a recluse." - Faye Dunaway


She's the essence of cool and I love the teased bob!

It Factor

"The more I see of men, the more I like dogs." - Clara Bow

 The very first sex symbol. She knew how to be sexy, flirty and with sense of humor to match!

She's Got Rhythm


"It [prejudice] is such a waste. It makes you logy and half-alive. It gives you nothing. It takes away."- Dorothy Dandridge

Gorgeous, a great voice and the first black leading lady. Need I say more?

Kitten With a Whip


"All women wiggle." -Ann Margret

The perfect blend of sugar and spice. She's the kind of girl you'd still call your very best friend even if she stole your husband. Not that she ever would of course!

How to be Lovely



"The best thing to hold onto in life is each other."
-Audrey Hepburn

Absolutely stunning,the embodiment of simplicity and surprisingly playful in her early films. She is probably the last of her kind.
