THE SOCIETY GIRL OF THE WEEK

A french born girl hitting the scene at the young age of 15, her modelling and acting career took off. This week's Society Girl optimized everything womanly. She was known to be the curvy blond of the 50's and 60's and her style is still effecting today's runways.

I am a fan of her dramatic tastes. Everything was big - her hair, her eyes EVERYTHING! I loved looking into the archives to find images that could be translated to today's style, so be inspired by our SOCIETY GIRL OF THE WEEK....

Not only was she beautiful and stylish, she became a huge advocate for animal rights. Beautiful on the inside too! Love it!

And she was also sued for having said and written (in her book) racist things ... ;-)
But she was indeed beautiful.

It's odd, as I was just watching Factory Girl, and at one point, there was talk of how Edie created this style that was completely new and original. Yet, looking over these images of Bardot, and having Edie fresh on the mind, it seems in ways they had very similar styles, but carry them off as having very different styles. What a wonderful (for me) thing to notice and think about.
