Charlie!

For BG and A: The New York one (top) features Bobby Short and the Paris one (so glam!)features Mel Torme. They were such formative commercials... There was a Shelley Hack in all of us.

  3. Thanks to you I always remembered ACS smelling like "Estee" and "Youth Dew"...:)
    Growing up, I wanted to be that "Charlie" woman...now I want to be "Elvira, Mistress of the Dark"...:)

  6. Dear Neja: You are Elvira. And I still love Youth Dew. Dear Anon: Its 2010 - I guess the balance of power has so evened out that this concept seems irrelevant and anachronistic? I know I'm not interested. Beauty: Clever guess! Yes, let the mudslinging begin.
