She's feisty. She's ethical. She's independent. She's a career woman, most definitely
not a career girl. And she is dressed for success. Totally. The movie: 1961's Lover Come Back. The character: Carol Templeton.
Duplicate the look with Advance American Designer 6952, designed by Stanley Wyllens. And, yup, it is available at The Blue Gardenia. But you knew that. You did.
And you may get a kick out of this quote from Ms. Day — I know I did: "Any girl can look glamorous . . . just stand there and look stupid."

They stare because it’s not a ball cap, sun hat or rasta cap.
Remember Lucy and Ethel’s terra cotta “hats?”
