Grace Kelly in Rear Window, 1954

Hello, friends!

There were so many classic movie star birthdays this week. One of my favorites of all is the legend, Grace Kelly. 

Grace Kelly is the first Old Hollywood actress I was ever really interested in. In high school, I went to visit my aunt Kim and I remember her talking about Grace Kelly, and somehow I looked her up. I thought she was the epitome of all sophistication. Her style really intrigued me. I especially loved how she is so modest yet so alluring. I wanted to be both modest and beautiful too! Until then, I didn't know that such a thing was possible!

When I think of Grace Kelly, I automatically think of this photo set she did for the movie Rear Window, which came out in 1954.

The dress she wore was so beautiful and elegant.

I don't have any movie premieres to go to or anything like that, but I do have work that I can dress up for!

My outfit is different than Grace Kelly's in a few different ways, (besides the colors being switched.) My top is flowy and sheer and definitely less formal. The skirt is not nearly as long as hers, either! A short girl like me tries to stay away from ankle-length skirts. I prefer skirts to the knee.

The pearls are a gift from my father and step mother. Aren't they lovely? I love pearls.

That's all that I have for you today, my friends. Have a good weekend!
