Top 3 Great Fashion Moments in Cinema

Lately to inject some inspiration into my life and into this blog, I’ve been watching some good old fashioned vintage cinema (a secret guilty past time of mine that I indulge in from time to time) and found it to be a goldmine of amazing coveted styles that the modern girl can adopt.
