Chanelling Eartha Kitt

I just learned Eartha Kitt died on Christmas Day.

Although there was a tinge of sadness as I have always loved her for being so darn fabulous, I somehow found myself smiling at how she aged so gracefully and lived her life to the fullest.  The woman, even at 81, remained to be alluring, glamorous and every inch the image of the total kitten as she was in her younger years.  I mean, who could ever forget that purr. 

I just saw her in a rerun of The Nanny of the Hallmark Channel, she must be in her late 60s there but still exuded the sexiness that any woman would envy.  She may not, what we call, conventionally beautiful, but by golly, she shines with X-factor that she could seduce anyone with that stare.  

Dazzling…Alluring…Sexy…

I wish I could channel my inner Eartha Kitt.  This may be quite impossible as I do not have that silky, sultry voice.  I don’t have that mesmerizing figure nor I could get away with that purr.  Maybe I could practice the smile, the confidence and the mischievous twinkle in her eye. I could work on it this coming new year. Lol.

Channeling her a little now by listening to some of her songs on my iPod. I shall miss her fabulousness and magic.  

Most especially that catty, seductive purr. 

Rest in peace, Eartha.
