Icons from Old Hollywood: the Original Bad Bitches

12:42 PM

         It might just be and my ridiculous obsession with old hollywood movies and the people that appear in them, but something about the grainy pictures and their transatlantic accents always leave me feeling empowered.

Lauren Bacall
Elizabeth Taylor


Rita Hayworth in "Gilda"
      Apart from being beautiful and admired in everything they did. They emanated a cool confidence. It radiated from them, probably due to the amount of lights shining on them at any given moment, but it seemed to shine straight through the screen.

     I've always felt that light on my face, and found it intensely alluring. Yes they were acting, and yes they were paid to make people feel something, But not every person you see on the screen can make feel something.



     These days, some girls want to be "Bad Bitches", women who have their lives together, are gorgeous and don't need a man for anything. Girls want to be Beyoncés, and Nicki Minajs, But the ladies of the old silver screen, they were the true Bad Bitches, they stood up for themselves, they were gorgeous, they walked into a room and commended attention. And all while hypnotizing their audience. Empowering and motivating everyone around them all at the same time.

So give one of those old movies a shot, maybe watch Liz Taylor in "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof", Rita Hayworth in "Gilda", or watch "How To Marry A Millionaire" with Lauren Bacall, and Marilyn Monroe.

Feel the glow and absorb it, then use it everyday.
