Antique Hollywood makes me smile. Taking a road trip to California this summer with the whole family, included my wide-eyes visiting some of the fantastic, overpriced old Hollywood tourist shops. (Children of course were eating some kind of atrocity with dad as they waited for my wandering to come to an end).

Why do I love Grace Kelly? Simplicity. Princess Grace was the first actress of the day to be photographed without makeup or set hair. This concept of natural beauty certainly departed from the traditions of that time.
