Caroyln Bessette-Kennedy may have been the wife of JFK, Jr., but her timeless American beauty and style kept her just as much in the spotlight as the rest of the Kennedys were.

In a world where some willingly choose to wear Ed Hardy t-shirts, consider leggings as pants, and think mesh-anything is ok to have in their closet, this classic – and classy – blonde is one to note. Her tragic plane crash death off the coast of Martha’s Vineyard happened nearly 16 years ago, but she is far from forgotten.
