Lauren Bacall: Femme Fatale, Dame of Distinction, and American Legend

Oh, Baby Bacall...you will be sorely missed.The only happy thought I have is that you and Bogie will finally be reunited - God speed and we will never forget the way you purred when you spoke, your coy feline gaze, and we will never, ever, forget how to whistle ;)

May you both rest in peace, you are my favorites.

A Little Spicy, But Not Too Raw...

Ever since I was a blossoming girlchild, I have been painfully aware of the proportions of my body. I remember I once spent an entire year wearing a sweatshirt around my derriere, attempting to hide from the world. When you are an eleven year old girl, attention from boys is super scary! I was also terribly shy. Now, as I approach thirty, I have accepted my figure -  I absolutely love the entire 1950's "bad girl" look... I just don't know if I have the cajones to wear these babies outside the house...

If only Frederick's of Hollywood was still your one stop shop for 1950's bad girl basics! Look at that playsuit on the left! And I definitely need a pair of those skintight mariachi style capri pants! A girl can dream...
