E: Remembering Elizabeth Taylor: A to Z Blog Challenge


I love old Hollywood movies and Elizabeth Taylor was one of the stars that I always found fascinating.


Not only was her beauty and talent admirable, but as someone recently mentioned, she typified old Hollywood style. Unlike today's stars who walk around in sloppy clothes or no makeup, Elizabeth always looked like a star when she appeared in public.


I was always interested in the life of Cleopatra, so that film (even if it was bad) is a favorite strictly for the amazing scenery and costumes.


** Something neat: some vintage Elizabeth Taylor paper dolls

Hi! Visiting from the AZ Challenge. Nice to meet you! I loved her unusual eyes, of course. I was most fascinated in her long and varied married life ;-) She was glamour to me, and I couldn't wait to read more about her life. She will be missed and mourned.

I just read a story about her in Entertainment Magazine. It said that she didn't like being called "Liz"...it was always "Elizabeth." Great post!
