Vintage Inspiration: Gene Tierney

The gorgeous Laurakitty posted a photo of Gene Tierney on her wonderful Sighs and Whispers blog, which reminded me that I've had this photo sitting in my 'to do' folder ever since I saw it a few weeks back. I'm completely in love with her look and specifically with this photo, and was just waiting for the right time to share.

This week is going to be a bit busy so my posts might have to be pretty brief, but I'll try to make them pretty in their briefness.

One of the most beautiful women of the 40s and it didn't hurt that her husband was a dress designer....

Yay! I adore her! This photo is a very wonderful one- you should dress up like this for Halloween! I know you could pull it off.

Gene Tierney was simply wonderful. In 'The Ghost and Mrs Muir' Rex Harrison's poltergeist mariner fell in love with her - and he was dead for goodness sake, so her narcotic effect on the living is completely understandable. She had a bright and perceptive mind, too. Thanks for the lovely post!

Thanks everyone!

Laurakitty, oh I wish I could. I have to work on Halloween though...

That's a really beautiful photo. I love the sleeve detail and pearls. =)
