Marilyn Monroe

What is it about Marilyn Monroe? As the Elton John song goes - the candle burned out long before the legend ever did. Marilyn's image is still seducing us decades after her death, there is something about this iconic sex symbol that still speaks to both men and women through her image. I think there's something in her eyes that is bewitching, other people are caught up in the conspiracy theories about her death. Whatever is the reason for Marilyn's longevity in our memory the fact is that people around the globe are still obsessed with her.

There are lots of Marilyn Monroe collectibles that hold people's attention and at every fancy dress event there always seems to be a Marilyn Monroe costume attending. I have decided to dedicate this webpage to everything Marilyn, think of it as an index to Marilyn Monroe sites and a must visit web location for Marilyn Monroe gifts.

I knew I belonged to the public and to the world, not because I was talented or even beautiful, but because I had never belonged to anything or anyone else.
