STYLE ICON: Audrey Hepburn



In our office I was named Audrey, it was a long story but yeah, I really need to change it because if my job. At first I don't understand why most of my colleagues say that they seen me as her. I actually don't like it (really) but I don't have a choice, then 1 day out of the blue I accidentally read something about Audrey Hepburn, it was her biography. I was mesmerized of her beauty, life, fame, attitude and elegance.




"I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles."
Audrey Hepburn

“I'm an introvert...I love being by myself, love being outdoors, love taking a long walk with my dogs and looking at the trees,flowers,the sky.”


“I have to be alone very often. I'd be quite happy if I spent from Saturday night until Monday morning alone in my apartment. That's how I refuel."

“Why change? Everyone has his own style. When you have found it, you should stick to it.”

“Everything I learned I learned from the
movies.”

“I believe in manicures. I believe in overdressing. I believe in primping at leisure and wearing lipstick. I believe in pink. I believe happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and... I believe in miracles.”

― Audrey Hepburn
