Blonde

Still blonde-obsessed, I thought it fun to post pictures of famous actresses throughout Hollywood history - there are many more, but I have lots of things to get to besides this! I can't help but be impressed with the voluptuousness of the earlier era stars. Other women, models, and celebrities set different examples in later eras. Seems like stick-thin came in the 70's with "Twiggy," followed by a bunch of girls/women with anorexia. Then Anna Nicole who seemed to be at the far end of both heavy and thin broke a mold with a reality show with a very plump Anna Nicole. Anyway, it goes to show that plump or thin, blonde looks pretty good on anyone who wants to be blonde (I'm still waivering).

One of these days I will have to do a post dedicated to dark haired women!

Reese Witherspoon


Sienna Miller

I enjoyed being blond myself. It killed my hair, but I did like it.

I loved the old movie stars - they had an elegance about them and a mystique often missing from the newer stars.."Twiggy" faded away to an old, elegant woman that we rarely hear anything about - she's the one we have to thank for the impossibly thin standard for American women. I don't pay much attention to the newer "stars" - unless it Jolie, Kidman (another blond) or someone really big. The two newer stars I posted pics of are cute -

I think you hit on it in your last post....go to a wig store and try on some different color blonde wigs so you can see which looks the best with your complection, but if you are like me and your hair grows very fast, they you should probably get a weave so you don't have roots showing in 3 days! Have fun!!!!
my hair has been every color known to man, including pink, blue,green, lavendar, red, black, red and black, nred and white, and a whole bunch of others, but always blonde in between.Now it's 2 or 3 colors of blonde with a dark carmel undertone you never see roots,YAY!!!

Marilyn Monroe: oh she is IT.
No other blond woman will ever exist who will be so 'blond' in all its connotations.
