Silver Screen Beauty for Fall

This MSN slide show highlights the Hollywood-inspired beauty trends on the Fall runway. My favorites shown are Elizabeth Taylor's Cleopatra and Audrey Hepburn's Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffany's.

Cleopatra, of course known in both her time and ours for her aesthetic expressions, has a very dramatic look and so many women may be intimidated to imitate. MSN does have a suggestion on a subtle yet no less stunning version of Cleo's famous cat eyes.






Holly Golightly's face is easier to put on every day and is the epitome of elegance. Other women shown were Ingrid Bergman as Joan D'Arc, Veronica Lake as Joyce Harwood in The Blue Dahlia, Raquel Welch as Constance de Bonacieux in The Three Musketeers, Snow White (yes, that Snow White), and Milla Jovovich as Leeloo in The Fifth Element (one of my fave sci-fi flicks). I don't really care for Leeloo's makeup and, except for Snow White, all the other pictures are in black and white, which makes it impossible to see the recommended colors for the look on the actresses.

Still, the blips on the slide show give thorough instructions so recreating the look should not be too difficult.
