Audiences have grown up watching I Love Lucy for generations, and because of the domestic nature of the program we feel like we know how Lucille Ball would have dressed and acted while at home.

House Beautiful shared a collection of rare photos, taken in the 50s and 60s, that give us a glimpse into the real home life of Lucille Ball, and as you would expect it's quite a bit more glamorous than Lucy's Upper East Side experience.
