Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy's Truly Timeless Style...And How To Get It (PHOTOS)

"A Look Back" is a daily column that highlights a moment from fashion's fabulous past. Today's pick is of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy with John F. Kennedy, Jr. in 1998. The late style icon met her husband while working as a publicist for Calvin Klein, a designer whose minimalist aesthetic suited Bessette-Kennedy's patrician beauty. And the true test of her timeless style? This photo could easily have been taken yesterday, not 13 years ago. All too sadly, however, it wasn't.
