So today I would like to talk about Icons. Not like the type of icon on your computer that you click on to get here (lol I'm so funny!), but the people in society that stand for or are known for something that influences your life. What do you think of when I say Marilyn Monroe? Sexy, probably. Right? So she could be considered a Sex Icon. The artist Andy Warhol, who was known for depicting famous icons (not just people; don't tell me you've never seen his famous Campbell's Soup cans), did a large silk screen of her in different colors, because, just like the soup, she was an icon in our society.You don't even realize it, but Icons are everywhere. A friend recently got me a book for my birthday of all the biggest fashion icons past and present. Think Jackie O, Kate Moss, Brigitte Bardot, Rachel Zoe, Madonna, and so many more. My biggest icon would probably be Audrey Hepburn, because she was always classic and elegant and also balanced a career with philanthropy. Who are some of the icons in your life? Why are they icons to you?
