One of my all time favourite actresses of the Hollywood Golden Age was Marilyn Monroe, with stunning blue eyes and blonde hair, a unique singing voice and fantastic fashion - seductive yet elegant. One of my favourite looks for Marilyn Monroe was this outfit of hers in 'How To Marry A Millionaire', and I have recreated this look for the modern world as a perfect ensemble for a sophisticated night out, or even for an event, mixing tan, white and moss green to make a look that will translate perfectly into the cooler weather and Autumn months coming up here in the UK.
There are so many dark greens and tan colours in my favourite collections, whether they be in shoes, jackets or incorporated into some of my favourite patterns from Fall 2015. I love Marilyn Monroe's look in 'How To Marry A Millionaire' as it's incredibly sophisticated, yet screams a seductive side, which was a fantastic theme running through the movie.
