As far as I can remember Marilyn Monroe was someone I loved reading about. Just days ago a new book was published about her entitled "Fragments". It's a never-before-seen collection of letters, poems and notes she wrote to herself. On an exciting sidenote, the book contains scanned images of the originals in Marilyn's own handwriting. I am also looking forward to see some rare, intimate photos.
Dears, who is going to have this addition to their home book collection? Love. xoxo
Ps: Here is a fun fact for you: Did you know that her hair was naturally brown but she's dyed it blonde?
(thanks, Justine)

i can't believe it...lovely greetings from Germany
This is so awesome, my sister literally said last night that she would love to read a book written by Marilyn Munroe, she's a huge fan...how perfect!
I find her so fascinating, thanks for this book idea! I forgot she was brunette - she was such a blonde icon! :)
Funny, I blogged about it some days ago, she looks amazing in this photo!
I had no idea there was such a book coming out...will definitely be on my coffee table.
This is also a perfect gift for a dear friend of mine too!
Many thanks!
XOXO
Thanks for the intro, I actually had no idea there was a new book out about her! Excited!
I love Marilyn! Can't wait to get this book (I'm wincing with one eye closed until I see the price). I knew that her hair was brown in her Norma Jean days.. gorgeous then too. I have to finish reading 'DVF: A Signature Life' first though..

Brunette but dyed her hair blonde?
Must have been bored with the dark colour;-)

Samantha I am planning to get the book too and Justine, I totally agree..She was!
