Grace Kelly, was and still is a true fashion icon. She captivated moviegoers with her beauty.<\/p>\n

The word \u2018style icon\u2019 is\u00a0used so loosely these days that it carries no\u00a0weight <\/span>to make an impact.<\/span><\/p>\n

But one of the few people that deserve such accolade of being a fashion icon\u00a0<\/span>is Grace Kelly. <\/span><\/p>\n

Kate Middleton\u2019s bridal gown looks similar to Grace Kelly\u2019s wedding dress she wore roughly 55 years ago. <\/span><\/p>\n

The importance of having style and making it your own is a true quality of a fashion tastemaker.<\/span><\/p>\n

She knew\u00a0<\/span>the style habits that worked for her body and she stuck to it.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are some images of bygone fashions that you see, and automatically see yourself\u00a0<\/span>wearing one of those pieces. <\/span><\/p>\n

The cat eye glasses seen on Grace Kelly happens to be one those.<\/span><\/p>\n

Her style in the picture is smart casual with\u00a0a streamlined silhouette of the fifties.<\/span><\/p>\n

One thing that makes Grace Kelly so unique is that her style is usually simple, yet so powerful. <\/span><\/p>\n

In today’s dressing, where overloading yourself with accessories has become\u00a0<\/span>acceptable, they can\u2019t be compared to classic dressing like those by Hollywood\u00a0<\/span>Starlets.<\/span><\/p>\n

Her career lasted for six years from\u00a0<\/span>the time she started, appearing in a total of 11 films. <\/span><\/p>\n

But by then, she had equally appeared in over 40 episodes of live drama. I<\/span><\/p>\n

Clear is Beautiful<\/span><\/h2>\n

Some film critics have said that Grace’s performance\u00a0in Hitchcock\u2019s films like<\/span> Dial M for Murder<\/span>,<\/span> RearWindow<\/span> and<\/span> To Catch a Thief<\/span> made her the most desirable woman in the world at the time. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Only Red Lipstick Will Do<\/span><\/h2>\n

At the time when she was to marry Prince Rainer, some people felt that the marriage would mean\u00a0<\/span>the end of Grace\u2019s career. <\/span><\/p>\n

As was the case, her career did come to an end, \u00a0but it did nothing to harm her popularity as a fashionable princess.<\/span><\/p>\n

In today\u2019s beauty world, we are told to have many lip colours as part of updating our\u00a0<\/span>look.<\/span><\/p>\n

For Grace Kelly, with a mind of her own, she stuck to using red lipstick regardless of what she wore.<\/span><\/p>\n

Throughout her career, from being a mega celebrity to becoming her royal highness, Grace\u00a0<\/span>Kelly was often seen in her glasses whether on official duties or off duty days.<\/span><\/p>\n

In an\u00a0official visit to Ireland, she sported what looks like tortoise shell\u00a0<\/span>sunnies, as she and her husband enjoyed a cup of tea. <\/span><\/p>\n
