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.

Marilyn Monroe Mask 50s

This is a stunning Marilyn mask for those who love the 1950’s! The mask has a quote directly from when this famous actress was alive and has her signature red lip. They made this item out of cotton and has a black background. They included her bleach blonde hair and with winged eyeliner. My mother has this exact same mask and she wears it everywhere. It reminds me of when she got her Marilyn soap bottle that she got in her bathroom. She loves all items that consist of this actress.

Pinup Girl Poster Gift for Those who Love Vintage!

Pinup Girl Poster Gift for Those who Love Vintage! This woman has a cute 50’s styled outfit. She has a blue hat, long V-neck striped pattern shirt, blue skirt, clipped tights, and black and white shoes. The background on this art has two clouds, symmetrical trees lined up and a lake. What I noticed next was the big fish and the log she is sitting on. From this poster she looks as if she is fishing and what is she fishing for? I would say fish, but others would disagree. This woman has bright red lipstick and curly hair as well. I imagine this art in a man cave since it gives off the vibe of sexual appeal. I do not want to categorize so I think some women would love this poster in their home as well.

What Was Valentine's Day Like in the 1950s

Many people in this era loved Valentine's Day not only because was it is a fun holiday but it is a celebration of love! Everything was decked out for this fun day with Valentine creations such as small decorations, valentine cards, hanging hearts in store windows, and more! You saw lots of couples walking the streets holding hands, families spending time together, and store owners with smiles on their faces for obtaining lots of sales.  Many children in school made Valentine's cards to give out to their classmates and created big posters of a baby cupids to take home.  Celebrity pinup girls were posed for this special holiday with hearts in the background or wearing having hearts on their clothes.  Marylin Monroe in particular did a Valentine's Day photo shoot with two big hearts as her backdrop.
