RIP Dame Elizabeth Taylor. What a wonderful woman she was!!! Talented actress, philanthropist, class act. She was also one of the most beautiful women of all time.
50's/60s-era Elizabeth Taylor has been a style inspiration for me since I was young. I started bleaching my hair at age 16, but seeing Dame Elizabeth look so gorgeous on screen helped me feel confident enough to go back to brunette a few years later. Her red lips, black-lined eyes, statement jewellery and figure-hugging dresses are all style staples for me. Her style was timeless and elegant.
If you haven't seen any of her films -- my faves are Giant, Cat On A Hot Tin Roof, Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf and Butterfield 8 -- please do yourself a favour and rent one. I know in her later years she's been mostly portrayed as an eccentric maneater, Michael Jackson BFF and tacky perfume queen, but the lady was such a talent. She will be missed.
