Social Sunday: Fashiona pays tribute to Elizabeth Taylor

A child in the 1980's, Fashiona first remembers seeing screen legend Elizabeth Taylor along side Michael Jackson and then as the diamond lady in the White Diamonds' commercials.   

Fashiona has since seen most of Elizabeth's biggest movies with Cat on a Hot Tin Roof  being her favorite.

Ms. Taylor, like Maggie was unapologetically stunning.  She loved fiercely and often and she was passionate about what really mattered to her. 

Elizabeth Taylor will be remembered for her violet eyes, her love for extravagant jewelry, in her latter years her work with AIDS awareness and of course her legacy of movie classics.

RIP Dame Elizabeth Taylor 1932-2011

We use the red shoe as a symbol of empowerment to represent the strength and courage of women infected and affected by HIV/AIDS. The incorporation of fashion into the message of HIV prevention is our contribution as we hope to show that Awareness is Always in Style!™

Now THAT is Fashion with a Purpose
