It's grey, it's chilly so why not have a dose of Jackie Kennedy's luminous charm and India's dazzling warmth. You couldn't have a more magical combination. These pictures were taken on her goodwill tour with President Kennedy in March 1962. One of my all-time favourite dresses is the apricot silk with the flat bow at the waist, part of the glorious wardrobe that Oleg Cassini provided for her. And please note her gloves!
With these images I am celebrating the fact that Google has teamed up with LIFE magazine to put their whole archive on line from which these are taken.

ReplyDeletetrip..that was the year I graduated from
high school..and Jackie looked like a queen

Thank you JoMarTaSmall! I so wanted to be like her at the time. Her wardrobe was the best ever in my book.
