Gwen Stefani oozed Old Hollywood glamor in a slew of throwback snaps to usher in the anniversary of her studio album, "This Is What the Truth Feels Like".
The singer morphed into Marilyn Monroe in the promotional images for the hit compilation that was released in March 2016. Gwen took to her Instagram story to share a trio of photographs from her heyday.
The first black-and-white image depicted the singer sitting on her knees while gazing into the camera. Gwen donned a black, long-sleeve turtleneck top with a pair of checkered Capris. The star's luscious blonde locks were styled into a voluminous '60s-inspired bob while her makeup exuded soft glam with a dark smokey eye, a contoured cheek, and a glossy lip.
The elegant photograph looked uncannily similar to Alfred Eisenstaedt's iconic monochrome image of Marilyn Monroe at her Brentwood home in 1953. The Golden Age Hollywood star donned a black, gauzy turtleneck sweater with a pair of white Capri pants. Marilyn sported her signature bombshell curls while her radiant complexion was enhanced by a pinch of blush and a rosy orange lip.

Gwen even mimicked Marilyn's chic accessory as the next image showed her lying on a sofa with a book placed open next to her. The final photograph saw the star up-close to the camera while holding a strand of her glossy locks over her face. Gwen showed off her fresh French manicure in the image.
The singer captioned the tribute: "This Is What the Truth Feels Like."
