Well, another summer comes to an end and with that my bathing beauty posts until next year. It's been a fun summer for me here at My Love of Old Hollywood and I look forward to what the rest of the year brings.
Thanks everyone who has visited here so far this year and welcome to all of my new blog followers. Please stay tuned for more frequent posts on our fabulous classic stars. I've got some things I'm working on as well continuing my Hollywood At Home series and that rebellious little Shirley will be back to co-host as well (I know Ian's thrilled about that news). Until then, let's have one last look at the stars enjoying their leisure time in the sun before we fold up our umbrellas and deflate the pool toys.

Great pix as always, Page. Love that spiffy little white outfit Jane Wyatt is wearing - maybe not the perfect color for a cookout and all that BBQ sauce, but very stylish.

DeleteThanks so much! I'm kind of sad that the summer fun posts are over and of course that our summer has come to an end even though it doesn't feel like it here at 104 today.
I could never pull off white at a BBQ. Ha Ha

Thanks for stopping by.

Not to brag, I live in Australia, so its HELLO SUMMER for me!!!!
ReplyDeleteEmma,
DeleteI hope you enjoy your summer down under. Please stop by and comment often as there are a lot of them posts on the way as well as reviews, bios and my series on Hollywood at Home.
Page
Thank you, Page. Yet another Rita photo I never saw before. Hope you had a good summer.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Kev. I'll still be posting pics of Rita. Of course she'll be wearing fur or silly hats. : )
DeleteNow that summer is in its end in America it finally starts to get warmer here in Brazil. As an inspiration for next summer, I'd love a swimming suit just like Gene Tierney's!
ReplyDeleteKisses!
Le,
DeleteGood luck on your quest to find the perfect swim suit. I'm sure it won't be very appealing when I start doing my fur posts while you're enjoying the beaches of Brazil. Ha Ha
I hope you enjoy your summer.

I always enjoy your photos, Page -- my favorite in this group is Cyd Charisse on the beach. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes,
Laura
Hi Laura,
DeleteI'm a bit sad that summer is over but now I can focus on bios again and hopefully Shirley will keep everyone laughing as winter approaches. Ha Ha
Thanks so much for your kind words.

What I really want is Jane Wyatt's portable outdoor barbecue :) Thanks for a summer sendoff ... bring on the fall photos!
ReplyDeleteCFB,
DeleteIt's very art deco isn't it? I would love to have it today just to put up for auction then I could use the money to buy more autographs and books.
Thanks for stopping by!

Love all the pictures of the bathing beauties.. but, poor Marilyn Monroe, looks like she is stiff as a diving board..:)
ReplyDeleteHiya Dawn!
DeleteTo be fair. I think the photographer told Monroe to go pose by the diving board and she interpreted it as posing like a diving board. Ha Ha
So glad you're doing well.

Page, your bathing suit series always makes me want to break all the mirrors in my house! Cyd Charisse looks so cute. And Jinx Falkenburg -- my Mom said Jinx was her favorite model when she was a kid, and she remembered being thrilled to see her in a cameo part in "Cover Girl." And of course, I really hate Lana Turner, Sophia Loren -- oh hell, ALL of them! Fun, as always!
