Marilyn Monroe baptized Norma Jeane Baker, was an American actress, singer & model.

In 1999, Monroe was ranked as the sixth greatest female star of all time by the American Film Institute. In the years & decades following her death on August 5, 1962, Monroe has often been cited as a pop & cultural icon as well as an eminent American sex symbol.

I grew up watching the movies where Elizabeth Taylor glowed with her beauty & femininity. Accomplished actress with a legendary beauty, a real Helen of Troy. With a lifestyle as dramatic as the rolls she played in the screen she deserves a status of style icon.

Andy Warhol made two pop art paintings of Elizabeth, this one called "Silver Liz" is from 1963,
the year she became the first actress to earn $1million.

I would love to pay her a tribute by making a series of posts including pictures of her & trying to find fashion items that go along.

I'm a knitter myself so I just add to choose this picture for this first tribute post :-)
