Friday Fashion – Liz, Cleopatra style

Here at BB HQ we love a bit of fashion, so every Friday afternoon we’ll bring you a fashion feast – this week we’re channeling Cleopatra, and bringing you draped gowns, Grecian/Roman/Egyptian style, beautiful jewellery, and some of the most amazing Gladiator sandals, just in time for spring. Elizabeth Taylor’s style was stunning in the 1963 Joseph L. Mankiewicz epic about the triumphs and tragedy of the Egyptian Queen. She was every inch the bombshell of the Nile!
