Since it's the Oscars, this is appropriate, and sorry if this has been posted before.

Only Grace can make Audrey Hepburn look second best. Monaco should be eternally grateful that this woman came and changed the principality for the best.

This website has such wonderful photos of Grace Kelly. More power to its owner.

Thank you for sharing this. It looks like Grace is wearing a scorpion brooch - do you know when this was taken? I'm thinking this was an occasion when famous scorpions got together; mentioned in several of Grace's biographies

You are most welcome. Again, browse through that website "Too Much Grace Kelly" whose link I shared above. Simply fascinating collection of photos. I wonder if its owner is a member of the Forums.

That scorpion-themed event was Princess Grace's 40th bday party/extravaganza where she invited fellow Scorpios. Richard Burton was a Scorpio, and naturally Elizabeth Taylor who he was married to at that time was invited.

As for the photo above, I am not sure though if this was taken during that time. I read that there are two main events -- the birthday party held at the Hotel Hermitage and a brunch party the next day held at the Palace Gardens. The picture above does not resemble either venue though.
