Retro Fashion Icon: October 15th is “I Love Lucy” Day

Posted October 12, 2013 by in Shopping

On October 15th 1951, the first episode of I Love Lucy aired. On the anniversary of this iconic show there’s plenty to celebrate — the impact Lucille Ball had on women in the arts, her influences on comedy as an art form, and on women’s role in society — the list goes on…

And when we celebrate all these things about Lucy, we cannot forget that Lucy did it all in a fashionable way (and with a funny face of course)!

Although, she might not immediately come to mind when you think “fashion icon,” think about where your love of the 1950’s and polka dots comes from!
