The AUDREY HEPBURN in me

When we think of Audrey Hepburn, we think of elegance and class. She is a style icon that until now, many people still look up to in the world of fashion. She introduced the "little black dress" to us in her movies and now, it is one of the most essential pieces of clothing that a woman should have. 

A few months ago, my friend gave me this Gap black dress. When I first saw it, I was kinda hesitant because I didn't know if the dress would fit me or if it would look good on me. Since, it's free, I just took it,  it is a "little black dress" anyway, hahaha! When I tried it on, the first thing that came into my mind was Audrey Hepburn!!! Then, I also noticed the pretty flower detail at the bottom, can you see? Cute, right? And this is size 2! SIZE 2!!!!!! Mowwwdeelll?!! LOL

In Audrey Hepburn's movies, she used pearls for her accessories. However, I read on the internet that she preferred simple sets of studs. My stylist (my brother) chose black and gold accessories over the pearl to give a different feel to it.

I paired the dress with these blue/purple/black heels to give a pop of color to the outfit. My nail polish also went with the colors of the heels, haha!

There are so many fashion styles now, but Audrey Hepburn's is timeless. As her son, Sean Hepburn Ferrer explained, his mother's style was "the extension of an inner beauty reinforced by a life of discipline, respect for the other, and hope in humanity."^[1] It is a style from within, so I can say that we all have that Audrey Hepburn inside us. What do you think?
