GlamAmor Posted by on Aug 27, 2010
When I first started GlamAmor years ago, one of the earliest articles I did was on the style of Lauren Bacall. As sometimes happens with technology, an effort to make a couple changes to the original post unfortunately deleted it entirely. And so, because she is currently TCM's Star of t read more

Last night I indulged in watching Josef von Sternberg's 1930 classic Morocco before heading out for my Saturday evening.
