Marie Antoinette was known famously for the saying, “let them eat cake,” but she was also known for her strikingly good looks. In fact, many movies and tv shows have depicted her opulence and extravagant lifestyle, and for excellent reasons. She was known as having a very radiant complexion and was so much of an extrovert that even her husband’s father was swayed by her personality and kissed her. Unfortunately, she lived during a time in France that wasn’t… the best. We all know where the rest of her story goes, but that doesn’t detract from how beautiful she was.
