Fashion Icon.........Amelia Earhart

Amelia Earhart was about as much of a "go getter"(is that what the kids are saying?) as there has ever been on earth. She embodies defiant confidence and as we all know, this year, fashion is about giving the power back to the ladies. Her hair and clothing styles have become inspiration for countless runway shows and fashion trends ( bomber jackets, cavalry pants, and 6 seasons of aviator glasses) and her life's story has inspired an upcoming film starring Hillary Swank.

Amelia Earhart disappeared July 2, 1937. She was an aviator and pioneer. She became the first woman to win the Distinguished Flying Cross after being the first woman to solo across the Atlantic. Earhart worked to inspire and help women interested in flying careers and formed the Ninety-Nines, an organization for female pilots. She disappeared over the Pacific Ocean while attempting to circumnavigate the world. Her mysterious disappearance has been a source of speculation and conspiracy theories since 1937.
