Throwback Tuesday: Lucille Ball

Lucille Ball, beloved from America's favorite show, I Love Lucy! Everyone loves her quirky style of acting that's still enjoyable to this day! She was the first woman to run a major television studio, Desilu, which produced many popular shows including Star Trek and Mission: Impossible. Desilu eventually merged with Paramount Pictures in 1967.

The above clip from one of the I Love Lucy episodes, has to be my favorite scene ever!

Throwback Tuesday: Grace Kelly

Never fear! Throwback Tuesday is here!

Grace Kelly, one of the "world's best dressed women".

Beloved for her movies, and as Princess Consort of Monaco, she is the loveliest Hollywood princess the world has known.

Throwback Tuesday: Judy Garland

Frances Ethel Gumm, or better known as Judy Garland was a beloved actress during the late 30's and 40's. She is best known as Dorothy Gale from her role in the Wizard of Oz in 1939. The Wizard of Oz is one of my favorite movies of all time! I also enjoyed her in Meet Me in St. Louis (1944).

"As for my feelings toward "Over the Rainbow", it's become part of my life. 

It is so symbolic of all my dreams and wishes that I'm sure that's why people 

sometimes get tears in their eyes when they hear it." 

~~~ Judy Garland

Throwback Tuesday: Shirley Temple

With a heart warming smile, Shirley Temple was one of America's Little Princesses.

My favorite movies with her include, The Little Princess, The Story of Seabiscuit, The Littlest Rebel, The Little Colonel, and a few others. She didn't just act, dance and sing, she also was an ambassador to Ghana and Czechoslovakia. 

"I stopped believing in Santa Claus when I was six. Mother took me to see him in a department store and he asked for my autograph." --- Shirley Temple

Throwback Tuesday: Elizabeth Taylor

Elizabeth Taylor was a notable actress from the 50's. My favorite movies with her are "Father of the Bride", the sequel, "Father's Little Dividend", and "National Velvet". 

After taking the photos, I played with them a bit, and gave them an Andy Warhol effect.

I think it's kinda similar to the one he did of Elizabeth Taylor, don't you think?
