Remembering Elizabeth Taylor for her great beauty, iconic persona, tireless humanitarian work and her compassion and optimism. Her screen life was often upstaged by her personal life, but she lived her life with spirit, sass and style.
When she turned 50 and her Hollywood career was winding down she looked back on her life and unapologetically said "I don't entirely approve of some of the things I have done, or am, or have been. But I'm me. God knows I'm me."
In one of her last major interviews Taylor said "I never planned to acquire a lot of jewels or a lot of husbands."
Life doesn't always turn out the way we planned. Thank you for reminding us to live ours with authenticity. RIP.
