If you said you looked like one celebrity from the Golden Era...

[Larry]

So many lovely ladies. Annie, RockyHorror (I love the user name), and so many more than I'm embarrassed to have not mentioned.

This is tough. I guess I would say that I resemble James Cagney the most. At least I would like to think that I do.

Without a mustache ... Spencer Tracy. [huh]

 

[Octavia]

^^ I can see it a little - in the shape of the face.

Interesting how well some people have been matched up on this thread! I've yet to learn of anyone who I see myself resembling, though someone once told me I reminded him of Bacall, but it was possibly the only golden era actress that sprang to his mind as there is no resemblance. No idea. Brightened these murky webcam shots for better visibility.

Very lovely, Octavia.

I love the pictures in your room!

I'm Rita Hayworth's identical twin.

Although others think I look more like King Kong.

yeah no, there is none that I can see haha. it was using www.myheritage.com

I used that site! Virtually every result i got was an 'oriental' woman.
I am the most british person probably who ever lived so can't possibly have any resemblance from that part of the globe!!

I agree with the Joan Blondell and Jean Arthur call, but the pic of you smiling also reminded me of Billie Burke. When are you going to post a photo shoot in the pin-up thread? It feels as if I've been waiting forever!

 

[cherry lips]

I see Sylvia Plath:

 

[LocktownDog]

Possibly, but our Miss Octavia seems far too happy and lovely.

aaah yes, even i can see a vague resemblance in that first one.

 

[YesterdayGirl]

Love this thread. What about me...any thoughts???? I can't think of one.[huh]

 

[Kiri]

You're stunning Octavia!

Hmm, I'll have to research my golden era actresses. Perhaps someone else will answer in the meantime Yesterday Girl. It's difficult to think of someone you think you look like isn't it?

 

[cherry lips]

Esther Williams!

 

[YesterdayGirl]

You are just being kind...I certainly can't swim as well as her! Thank you for a lovely compliment!

 

[Kiri]

Oh but you do look like her! Especially in the first black and white shot!

 

[Octavia]

Thanks for the kind words everyone. So sweet!

cherry lips, you are eerily good at this! I have to agree with every comparison you've made. Especially YesterdayGirl - you definitely do look like her! It's uncanny.

Oh, and thank you Miss Scarlet! My father drew the Dorothy one behind me. And I did the Cary Grant one beside me.

 

[cherry lips]

Thank you gals! You're all lovely.

 

[bradford]

Any thoughts?

Love this thread. What about me...any thoughts???? I can't think of one.[huh]

Ok not vintage but I keep thinking you bear a resemblance to modern rockabilly singer Marti Brom.
