Why Marilyn Monroe Lives On Forever


Marilyn Monroe had the ideal look that everyone wanted to have back in the 1950’s. She rose to fame very quickly and was idolized so much by the public.

Monroe was an American actress and was labeled as a sex symbol within the 50’s. She was born June 1st, 1926 and died August 4th, 1962.

I was shocked to find out that she was 5’5 as she seemed so much taller in photos, I would have thought she was 5’7. Marilyn had short blonde hair and a face that shined in the spotlight.

One rumor that stuck with me was that she really wanted to get pregnant when she was a live and that sadden me as she died so young. She could have experienced more and made more movies.

Monroe could have spent more time with her family and grown into an older blossoming woman. One thing that people loved was that she was kind and you could feel like she was in a sense your friend.

She seemed as she was not all about the money but all for making memories and living life to the fullest. You could tell she was a gentle soul.

Marilyn had the doe eyed look but radiated a sexy vibe to her. She had charisma and you could tell she was a joyful person.

She was all every woman wanted to be and men all wanted to meet her or be her partner. Which is understandable as she was rich and famous.

Monroe was in many movies within her lifespan but her most famous one was called, “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.” It is unclear which one of her movies she acted in first, but you can tell she made great effort with each one.

When watching her interviews, she answers with such pose and carries herself with lots of confidence. She always looked so beautiful and presentable.

Marilyn left behind some quotes but the one that struck me the most was, “Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.”

I have to agree that imperfection is beauty, it would be so boring if everyone looked the same and did not have any quirks to them. We would have no cool differences and enjoy the small things such as one can tan skin, another can have pale skin, or someone has a big nose.

It is better to be fun and have different interests as you can bond over the said interests or be intrigued by anothers. I am rambling but Marilyn Monroe is an icon and should be celebrated for years to come.

She was lovely and still deserves to be remembered and have lots of attention.

1950's Western Women Hairstyles

I would say that women in the 1950’s had good hairstyles. You mostly see women with short hair than long. Do not get me wrong I have seen women with long hair, but it was rare since the trend at that time was to have short hair that was curly. I am a full supporter with women with dark brown hair with curls. I do like that they did not think of women with short hair as portraying too close to be looking like men or that they were copying their hairstyle. It is not a competition at all. All genders can choose to have their short or long if they wish too. Society did have the image that women with short hair were housewives, medium for young, and long for Hollywood pin ups. Which I do not think that women should abide by these. I am fond of women having short hair so that there is less to do with it. I am personally one who likes to keep her hair short as I do not have patience for long hair. When going to salons in the 1950’s it was a lot easier to style or cut someone’s hair...

What Was Good About 1950's Cars?

I have to say that 1950’s cars look like they are from a whole different universe. What I love about these cars are the white streak around the front of each of the tires. You have many car brands such as the Packard, Mercury, Chevrolet Corvette, Hudson, Ford Thunderbird, Chevrolet Bel Air, Chrysler Imperial, Chrysler New Yorker, Buick Skylar, and more!  I personally have to say the Chevrolet Bel Air is my favorite looks wise. Many people who had cars in this era were more towards those with some wealth. I noticed that a lot of the percentage of people walked, biked, or took the bus to wherever they were going. Not everyone in the 1950’s had a car but those who did had some money. Lots of these cars were geared towards couples who had children as well. The cars back in this time period came in many colors, which I love! Today many people have bland colors on their cars. Which are their preference but cars with unique or cool colors really stand out. When looking through pictures of...

1950 Home Rules They Followed

Many people in the 1950's lived simply and it is what most of us would want in the modern world of 2021.  Everyone had a routine that they followed such as making our beds when you woke up, take a bath, cook breakfast, etc.  Once in a while they would change up their routine to have a variety and not to get bored but for the most part they never strayed away from their routines.  This was true, especially those with children. They always said that kids need stability and a routine or else they were cranky and rebellious.  Many people from the 1950's were all about their houses being so spotless and were to be shown off to others as well.  They always followed the mantra of cleaning up after yourself as you went and making sure you had good cleaning habits.  Lots of educational advertisements at the time wanted the public to wake up and dress in presentable clothes, it did not matter that you were a housewife.  You had to look and had to have the attitu...
