Champoux Luxe: Hedy Lamarr, 1940's

I absolutely adore Hedy Lamarr.

She was deemed the "most beautiful woman in Europe" during Hollywood's Golden Age, but that is not why I love her. She helped develop frequency hopping, an early technique for spread spectrum communication. In 1941, it was deemed so vital to national defense that the government didn't allow its publication.

She was born on November 9th- so this post is a bit late. Forgive me! But this is intended to celebrate her birthday.

This is a glamor shot Hedy Lamarr, which I'm guessing is in the early 1940's. Correct me if I'm wrong!

Now, I created this blog with the intent of taking glamour shots of my favorite movie stars and making them casual. That is what I did here.

I used a similar salmon colored top with layering necklaces. Although I adore pearls, I would not wear a 6- strand pearl necklace out on the town! So I have a simple layered gold necklace for my casual outfits. But you can't take me away from my pearl studs!

Her eyelashes are divine, and absolutely fake. I'm almost 100% sure they are fake. (Look at that shadow on her cheek! There's no way...) I tried to make my eyes stand out by using thickening mascara.
