ahhh to be a hepburn



I think that it is safe to say that at one point or another every woman, that has heard of Audrey Hepburn, has either looked up to her or has frankly wanted to be her.  Why is that?  The answer is quite simple, Audrey has never embarrassed herself or the female species (certainly not in public at least).  I do not believe that Audrey ever looked back in shame of what a crazy young lady she used to be or how inappropriately she dressed.  She held herself with a poise and grace that has been ignored in our world today, but will always remain in style.



As young women of the present we would be wise to follow in her example.  Not only was Audrey keenly aware of how  her appearance and behavior could affect those around her, she was also aware of the suffering of those around her.  Audrey dedicated much of her life to helping hungry children and their mothers throughout the world.

She has been an incredible role model to me as I try to develop my own personal style as well as a strong social conscience.

I highly recommend this book,  as it will help you to unleash your inner Hepburn.  Hope you find it as helpful as I did.

  2. I know right? This picture is of the road leading up to l'Arc de Triomphe. I feel like everyone has seen a picture of that, but this one is taken from a different perspective and the result is an entirely enchanting photo with the original location seeming unrecognizable.
