The show notes for Max Mara's fall 2015 collection taught me something I didn't know: that Marilyn Monroe attended college classes (and loved reading, leaving behind a 400-book library when she died). The above snap of Marilyn is from a 1950 photo shoot in the backyard of a Hollywood agent, one of the years right before her career really took off, and, according to The Secret Life of Marilyn Monroe by J. Randy Taraborrelli, a time period when she was taking literature classes at UCLA. The majority of photos we've all seen of Marilyn are either movie stills or promotional pics and they all play to her sex-bomb persona. There's a whole other strata of her personal style though—less documented but worth paying attention to—where she's off the clock and wearing classic basics that are less curve-hugging. I dug through a lot of vintage snaps, and these were the most inspiring I saw. If you're craving more, Life shared images from a shoot 24-year-old Marilyn did when she was still relatively unknown (so much so that the magazine declined to publish them). Her clothes, monogrammed shirt included, hinted at that bookish side, as did the photographer's note that the

The River of No Return 1953 B & W Photos by Ray O'Neil. Copyright Keith Allen Photography, Jasper, Alberta In 1953, Marilyn Monroe was in Jasper to film River of No Return, co-starring Robert Mitchum. While Marilyn was here, Jasper photographer Ray O'Neil managed to get a photo shoot with her. The result was a series of classic photos, some of which can now be obtained in Jasper's stores, especially Jasper Photography. But River of No Return wasn't the only drama during Marilyn's stay: She was "asked to leave" Jasper's most exclusive hotel because she was wearing "inappropriate attire" for a lady: she was wearing shorts. Marilyn then moved into one of the better hotels in town, but ended up leaving there also, after a row in the lobby. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) were called in to escort her from the hotel. The Mounties arrived and made sure they got their woman.
