Life Lessons From Gentlemen Prefer Blonde

/// If you haven't yet, please go over to Facebook and 'Like' the Blame Mame Facebook page! \\\

My favorite movie of all time is the 1953 film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes starring Marilyn Monroe and Jane Russell. The technicolor musical follows the gold digging adventures of Lorelei Lee and her chaperone Dorothy Shaw while they cross the Atlantic on their way to Paris. The film has a lot to offer the viewer in the form of luscious musical numbers, gorgeous Travilla gowns, and you probably didn't realize it, but it also offers many lessons you can put to good use in your own life. So just what can you learn from these two buxom beauties? You've come to the right place, keep reading!
