Cleopatra--The Original Sexy Siren


For some reason the Egyptian/Grecian style seems to be surrounding me lately.  Our Homecoming was last week and the theme was "Going Greek."  Then, I happen to turn on the TV tonight and a documentary on Cleopatra (Cleopatra: Portrait of a Killer) is on.  

So, what better to post on than Cleopatra herself and the style she was so known for?  If you don't know much about this famous femme fatale, you owe to yourself to learn about her.  Her life was a fascinating one for sure.  











So, what do you think of the Egyptian/Grecian style?  It's a cute costume idea for Halloween right?  Even though it doesn't seem like it, I'm linking up for Wordless (Semi) Wednesday with my friend Daphne over at Flip Flops and Pearls.  Go check her out!

AND
don't forget to link up with me tomorrow for Flirting With Temptation Thursday!

Liz











I read a bio on Elizabeth (Liz) Taylor about a year ago and had no idea what her life entailed. Liz has definitely been spoiled most of her life, but most don't know that she was responsible for supporting her family from a very early age.

Liz's mother was a former stage actress and her father was an art dealer. Because of her father's art dealings, he came into contact with many many famous people of the time. National Velvet, of course made Liz famous, and set her for life as one of Hollywood's true beauties.

We all know about the scandals involving Liz, including her 8 marriages. But, she does remain one of the most respected, beautiful actresses Hollywood has to offer. My favorite role of hers was definitely Cleopatra. Check out some of the photos of Liz and have a great Sunday!
