In Shadows...

Most of you have probably already recognized this Dark Angel from her photo but for those of you who are unfamiliar with her portfolio, say hello to Miss Bettie Page.

She was a model who became famous in the 1950's for her fetish and pin up photography. Page even did her her own make up, hair and created her own attire for her pin ups. Now thats crafty. Only 10 years after her career began she decided to end it, though she was still in demand. Many factors contributed to this decision, including stalking incidents, but theres not a photo taken that shes ever regretted.

So far Bettie has been married and divorced a whooping three times during her life and although she now lives in a seniors home, don't count her out just yet. She may be in her mid 80's but shes still a gorgeous lady!

Her classy style is just one of the reasons her image keeps coming back as a trend time and time again. Her cult following is responsible for such necklaces as this one from HushHush's Etsy shop.
