Opening Act


Pictured from left to right (Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, Dorothy Dandrige)

Before there was Cameron Diaz, Julia Roberts, and Beyonce... there was Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, & Dorothy Dandridge. These Hollywood starlets were picture perfect. Marilyn: the epitome of sexy and every man’s fantasy. Audrey: the essence of sophistication, and a timeless beauty. Dorothy: the original distinguished diva!

Talk about making statements…. All of these ladies could single handedly light up a runway! Marilyn, Audrey, and Dorothy paved the way for the Hollywood A-Listers by making the room, carpet, or set sexier, classier, and distinctive with no apologies! I put together 3 modern day looks that I feel reflect the influence and style of my all time favorite Hollywood Starlets! Let me know what you think!! Also, leave comments about the Hollywood A-lister influences your style and why? To view these items in more detail (where to buy, costs, designers) click on the pictures below!

  1. Awesome selections Jenkins! As an Audrey fan you know I am loving the looks you put together! The black turtleneck top and skirt are fab, but I'm also in love with the strapless Donna Karan. And I am definitely a fan of all the pearls! Since you know I am a shoe addict I can't say enough about the selections you made! I now need to focus on my shoe fetish again! Loving the blog! Keep it coming!
