Coretta Scott King

today is Martin Luther King Day, and i thought it would be valuable to recognize the beautiful, stylish "woman behind the man" - Coretta Scott King. when her style is closely examined, it's obvious she had an elegant, signature style that has shown influence and endurance.

Ms. Coretta Scott King dressed in a breathtaking combination of a classic
blue dress and gold hat, accessorized with a fabulous golden hat pin and coordinating necklace and earrings. Ms. King personified an enduring classic yet personalized style. An under-appreciated icon!
