Through The Ages: 1940s Old Hollywood

by - 08:30

A while ago I shared the pictures from the 1920s section of the last photoshoot I did with Jac from Tip Top Hair Design and Steve Bond. After the 1920s section we moved onto this amazing Hollywood Glam look inspired by images of Hollywood's leading ladies of the 1930s and 40s. This was my favourite look overall from the photoshoot, and I am completely in love with the results.

I don't think I can choose a favourite from these as I'm so happy with all of them! Next time will be 1960s - you may have already seen a little preview if you follow me on Facebook  and I'm also active on Twitter and Instagram where you can see more pictures, articles, and interesting things I find on the web.

Also, if you live in the UK, you can now order Bésame cosmetics from Tip Top's online store, and Jac will also be expanding with other lines soon. If you live close enough to visit the salon (Leicestershire) you can also get gift vouchers to spend in store.

  3. These are really beautiful. I THINK I like the first one best - real 40s sultry! - but you should be really proud of them all. You are so photogenic and timeless and seeing you switch between eras just proves it. Kx

  4. Such lovely photos, and very authentic too. They really recreate the glamour of the era. Think the second one is my favourite x

  5. You really look just stunning here! These remind me so much of the studio shots of actors from the era, which of course was the whole intention, so great job on that. They are all so amazing, but I think my favorites are the 5th and 7th ones from the top - you are absolutely smouldering in them.

    1. Yes, that's exactly what we were going for! Jac brought along some pictures of Lauren Bacall, Bette Davis, etc, which we tried to emulate.
