Elizabeth Taylor~Icon



















Elizabeth Taylor was like no other, she was the biggest movie star the world has ever seen and literally wrote the manual on being a star (which makes sense since her career began at age 9).  She bewitched me when I was a child, I saw National Velvet and fell in love.  Something about her was very otherworldly, in her heyday she lived amongst a sea of blond goddess yet still reigned supreme. 


Married 8 times we saw publicly why she was so good..the dramatic nature of life ran through her blood and played out on film for the world to see. (She and love Richard Burton stared in 12 different productions together exposing and infusing their passion into their roles, some were the  greatest movies of all time.)  She was a living legend, an incredible activist, a truly amazing woman (the first to have legal control over her image in Hollywood) and as we see here a style icon.  She will never be forgotten but always remembered as one of unequivocal beauty, sex appeal, talent and true grit.
