Just a quick Hello, and Brigitte Bardot

Well as you all know my little darlings this is my first blog, and I hope it's an success, although I don't really mind if it's not because atleaste I'm doing something I enjoy. The blog is still at the work in progress stage, but hopefully I will have it up to scratch within the next week or two!
So as this is my fist blog post I've decided to talk about quite possibly, although incredibly hard to choose my favourite style icon, and beauty Brigitte Bardot!

It was the 1950's slowly things were becoming less strict, and the smell of freedom, and rebellion was in the air. It was Cannes film festival, and a nymph of beauty was parading herself among the beaches of Cannes in an itsy bitsy bikini (quite shocking for the time) There was talk amongst everyone "who is she? Where does she come from?" Little did they know that this curvy waif (yes they do exist) would in the next fews years become one of the most famous foreign film actresss', a singer, a fashion icon, before retiring at the age of 39 in the 1970's (because as the saying goes it is better to burn out, than to fade out) She ramains in the thoughts of people for her impeccable style, she made the bikini, gingham (got married to her second husband in gingham), capri pants, and flats a must have, that has yet some 50 years on to go out of fashion. Where is Brigitte now since she has shunned celebrity, living a relative recluse in her house in St Troprez (La Madrague) surrounded by animals, and dedicating her life to animal rights.
