Everybody loves the old Hollywood glamour for its timeless styles. Today's post will show you several tips inspired by the old Hollywood glam and fashion!

Read about Marlon Brando from Guest of a Guest on February 20, 2013

Greeting to you all readers for my first post. My section called "everything old Hollywood".I have to confess that the reason I chose this topic is because, I am a girl who absolutely obsessed with all things Old Hollywood. There. I said it..... Normally, people my age don't really get me when i told them about this. Some of them told me that i need to see more modern entertainments. They said old Hollywood stuffs are for older people, only their grandparent or their parent will like it. In fact, IT IS NOT! (I'm not screaming). Everybody in every age can appreciate great art if they don't judge it first. Here, let me be your guide to introduce you to the wonderful, marvelous, vintage, and classic, Old Hollywood! The first thing that got my interest in old Hollywood is a black and white movie called, Now, Voyager (1942).The leading star of this film is Bette Davis, who is the reason that made me fall in love with this film. I've saw this film when I was in grade 10. My teacher showed this movie in my film club and i was blown away by Bette's performance. Now, Voyager Bette Davis This movie is based on the famous novel by Olive Higgins Prouty and directed by Irving Rapper. Starring Bette Davis as Charlotte Vale, Paul Henreid as Jerry Durrance, Claude Rains as Dr. Jaquith, and Gladys Cooper as Mrs. Henry Windle Vale. The story begins with a women name Charlotte Vale, who is unattractive, overweight and depress all the time. Her life is dominated by her strictly mother, Mrs. Henry Windle Vale, which is the one that always abuse her with words that she can not be a complete woman with her lack of confidence. With help from her sister-in-law, who's afraid that Charlotte will break down some day, introduces her to Dr. Jaquith, who helps her change her life and transform to a beautiful perfect woman. On the way to return home from the treatment with Dr. Jaquith, Charlotte takes the holiday on the cruise and meets a married man, Jerry Durrance. Charlotte and Jerry become closer and have fallen in love, but they decide they should not see each other anymore for the sake of everyone around them. When Charlotte arrives home, her family is shocked and stunned by her new look. Her mother wants to control her again, but this time Charlotte doesn't do what her mother wants and remains herself. Later, Charlotte gets engaged to a rich widower, but by chance she meets Jerry again. She cancels the engagement and it makes her mother so angry that she has a heart attack. After her mother dies, Charlotte return to the treatment center again. At the treatment center Charlotte meets a girl who reminds her of herself, Tina. So,she asks Dr. Jaquith to help this girl. When the girl is better, Charlotte takes the girl home with her. Jerry and Dr. Jaquith come to visit Charlotte at home. Jerry is happy to see his daughter (Tina) becomes better. Finally, they understand each other and decide to spend time together for his daughter and their love. The End. This film has given Bette the most memorable role. I think her performance in this movie is so amazing. In the scene where Charlotte has transformed, Bette can makes you think that she really feels like for the first time that she is beautiful. Oh I love this woman! She also did a great job when she was a depressed Charlotte. I really believe and feel pity for Charlotte's life with her mother. Here is the trailer of this movie, Now,Voyager. I hope you guys like this and give it a try some time. Remember, never judge things before you try it. Until next time, my friends. ;)

Clara Bow vintage clown art print 1920s. Created, printed and shipped directly by us in the USA, all prints arrive ready to frame. Each image we sell is the product of numerous hours polishing the original and is not simply pulled off the internet. Note: Digital downloads are typically just pulled from the internet with no work done to improve their appearance. We use a state of the art commercial Canon Wide Format gicleé printer, not a home laser jet printer; this is how we can offer and directly ship large sizes. We print in high resolution from high res scans or actual photographs we have collected. We print on the highest quality photographic paper available-Epson 260 gsm-using 12-color archival inks that are fade resistant for 100+ years. Our Epson Professional Premium semi-matte photo paper has a satin lustre-not too matte, not too glossy, just right. We include a 1/10 inch white border to prevent the lip of the frame from covering part of the image. We can omit or expand border by request. Watermark will not be on the print you receive. Custom sizing or other image requests welcome. ORDER READY TIME & SHIPPING All orders are printed to order and ship within 2-5 Business days via USPS ground advantage (fka first class) mail.

If for any reason you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, just reach out on Etsy message so we can make it right! PRO TIP In printing, like so many other services, a lot of factors determine the quality of the reproduction. How thick (or flimsy) the paper is, the resolution of the original photograph, the expertise of the individual processor/printer and the time spent polishing the image to perfection prior to printing. Before you purchase a print from just any vendor, look to see if they use a third party printing service/drop shipper, or do they control the entire process by producing and shipping the print themselves? Do they use a commercial printer, or do they simply print on a commonplace laser printer like you would find at Office Max or in a home? What paper do they use? Note: Digital downloads are typically just pulled from the internet with no work done to improve their appearance.

From Ziegfeld Girl to Singin’ in the Rain, the best classic films to watch for jaw-dropping hair and makeup worth stealing.

Glossy red lips, Max Factor "Pan-Cake" foundation, powder puffs, glistening gold compacts and jeweled lipstick bullets... Old Hollywood practically glittered with glamour. And the starlets that lit up the silver screen became beauty experts in their own right, learning first-hand from film industry professionals - from makeup and hair artists to lighting technicians. I want to share beauty tips, tricks, and stories from some of the most iconic Old Hollywood leading ladies in the technicolor and sun-soaked 1950s! Audrey Hepburn In Audrey Hepburn’s first starring role in Roman Holiday (1953), her makeup artist Alberto De Rossi spotlighted Audrey's beautiful doe eyes by painstakingly separating each eyelash with a safety pin after using mascara to correct clumps. Audrey was so impressed, she specifically requested him as her lead makeup artist for future films, and his wife as her hairdresser. Audrey Hepburn and designer Hubert de Givenchy's relationship has become the stuff of legend. In 1957, he released L'Interdit *, a delicate floral fragrance that boasted Audrey as its muse with notes of iris and violet. But according to Audrey's publicist Henry Rogers, her husband Mel Ferrer wasn’t pleased, citing the fact Audrey wasn't getting any royalties for Givenchy's use of her image. Audrey herself was not alarmed, saying "I don't want anything from Hubert […] Yes, I even want to walk into a drugstore and buy the perfume at the retail price." Other fragrances worn by Audrey: Joy by Jean Patou, Femme by Marcel Rochas, English Promenade 19 by Krigler (thank you Smell You Later's Sable Yong for the tip). * Sadly, the current L'Interdit by Givenchy is a brand new fragrance In addition to her eyes, Audrey is associated with a now legendary lipstick in Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961). Sitting in a cab, Hepburn's Holly Golightly re-applies a peach pink lip while she receives bad news, a moment that swells to the climax of the film. It's been hotly debated which brand the lipstick was, and a select few in the know choose to remain tight-lipped - it seems for now we can’t conclusively know the secret to Audrey's perfect peach lips. Until then, Revlon's Pink in the Afternoon will have to do. A lovely mid-toned pink that was actually made for Audrey herself in the 1980s when she signed on as a Revlon spokesperson, Pink in the Afternoon is still available at most drugstores.

Dorothy Dandridge Dorothy Dandridge made history as the first Black woman to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress as Carmen Jones in 1954, but she almost wasn’t cast for the iconic role. When Dorothy met with director and producer Otto Preminger for an audition, he said Dorothy was "a beautiful butterfly... but not Carmen." Dorothy asked for a second chance, and decided to prove him wrong. "I hurried to Max Factor’s studios and looked around for the right garb [...] I put on heavy lipstick, worked spit curls around my face." When Dorothy, dressed in character complete with the makeup transformation, slinked into her second audition, Otto gasped and this time declared "My God, it’s Carmen!" As for Dorothy's signature fragrance, Town and Country Mag reports Dandridge favored Tabu by Dana, a fragrance described as a warm spicy perfume with notes of orange, coriander, cloves, and jasmine. Dorothy was a true professional, learning tricks of the trade and "the importance of lighting, camera angles, and makeup for both dramatic effect and star power" (Dorothy Dandridge by Donald Bogle). For the films Bright Road (1953) and Remains to be Seen (1953), Dorothy and celebrity hairdresser Sydney Guilaroff would work together to create her on-screen look: "Then we took pictures. And then Dorothy would take it to the new studio and tell them this was just how she wanted to look." Off screen, Dandridge admitted she preferred going fresh faced, with just "a little thickening of my eyebrows, and colorful bandanas for my hair." JavaScript is currently disabled in this browser.

Lucky for us, Marilyn's beauty regime has been extensively reported on. My favorite beauty antidote about Marilyn is via her sister, Berniece Baker Miracle. In her book, My Sister Marilyn, Berniece shares makeup advice Marilyn herself would pass onto her from Monroe's experiences as a model and actress. In a letter to Berniece, Marilyn explained the magic of a lip brush and how to use different shades to create depth on the lips: "You can’t control the line if you apply lipstick with a tube […] With the brush you can apply two or three colors for shading. The first step is to outline your lips in a darker color, then shade with a lighter color for contour." Marilyn's lips were usually topped with Vaseline for a hyper-glossy finish. Marilyn used lipsticks from brands like Coty, Max Factor, and Revlon. A modern day equivalent of Marilyn's favorite Revlon lip, Bachelor's Carnation, is Love That Red, a gorgeous cool toned red! Marilyn Monroe gets ready for a night out in New York City. By Ed Feingersh, 1955. When Marilyn Monroe was photographed spritzing on Chanel No. 5, it sealed the fragrance's fate: over 70 years later, the perfume is still synonymous with old Hollywood glamour and Marilyn's unique blend of vulnerability and sensuality. It was also reported that when asked what she wore to bed, Marilyn said "I only wear Chanel No. 5", a line that has been confirmed by this voice clip of Marilyn herself!

Elizabeth Taylor Elizabeth Taylor was enshrouded in studio glamour from a young age, growing up on the MGM lot working as a child star. "MGM was a very exciting place to be […] They were all there - Judy Garland, Lana Turner, Spencer Tracy, Hedy Lamarr," says Elizabeth. "And there was the lovely, sweet smell of the pancake makeup the women wore." Elizabeth’s eyes were particularly dazzling, in certain lighting her blue eyes looked violet, and they were framed with a double row of eyelashes. Fellow child star and friend Roddy McDowall saying, "Who has double eyelashes except a girl who was absolutely born to be on the big screen?" Elizabeth favored Max Factor, wearing "Clear Red no3" in Father's Little Dividend (1951), and Elizabeth Arden lipsticks And in the iconic opening scene of Butterfield 8 (1960), Elizabeth Taylor as Gloria Wandrous scrawls "No Sale" with her pink lipstick in a mirror. Elizabeth herself hated the film, but the scene was electrifying - she even referenced the scene to show how unhappy she was with the rest of the film: "While I was viewing a rough cut, [...] I walked up to the screen, took out a lipstick, and wrote a four-letter word on the screen." It’s rumored she again referenced the scene later, writing "You are fantastic, Luv" on the dressing room mirror of on-again off-again flame Richard Burton (who kept the message on his mirror for his entire run in the play).

These Golden Age of Hollywood photos make us wistful for the past.

Old Hollywood is an aesthetic surrounding the movies, music, and fashion popular from the 1930's to the 1960's. It's meant to draw you into a time before and forget about the current things happening, back into a time where everything felt simpler. The Old Hollywood period was the beginning of the Sound Era: when silent movies faded out of the spotlight as the industry transitioned to sound-film production. The beginning of the Sound Era isn't exactly set in concrete. Some think of it as when th
