After learning of the passing of Elizabeth Taylor, I scoured the internet to revisit the many iconic images of her in addition to clips from her most memorable movie scenes and loving tributes to her by her fans. Naturally, a reoccurring theme amongst the images were the countless necklaces, rings and dazzling diamonds that were her trademark. Diamonds were her wardrobe.
It's hard to put a price tag on some of the most precious possessions of the icon, but her rivaled collection of jewels have a reported worth of over 150 million dollars. My Fox in Chicago reports that her jewelry will likely go up for auction with the bulk of the proceeds going to support her AIDS foundation as well as the American Foundation for AIDS research. I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate her memory.
