Happy Birthday Audrey Hepburn!!

Audrey Hepburn was born on this day (May 4th) in 1929.

In her honour I thought I would share some of her words, some of her adorable and amazing fashion sense as well as a few items which may help you take on the look of Audrey yourself...Enjoy!!

"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."

"As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one fore helping yourself, the other for helping others."

 "Everything I learned I learned from the movies."

      

Get the look:

Audrey's simple, elegant, classic style was always stunning...

LIZA!

Yesterday (MARCH 12th) was Liza Minnelli's Birthday and I missed writing a little tribute so here goes...

Liza Minnelli is such an icon...a singer/actress and the daughter of Judy Garland, Liza shot to international fame when she appeared as Sally Bowles in the film version of the Broadway musical Cabaret in 1972...and won the Academy Award for Best Actress.
She has had such an amazing career on stage, on film and in the music industry and is one of the few entertainers who have won an Oscar, Emmy, Grammy AND a Tony Award!

Minnelli has always been show stopping when it comes to fashion and style over the years...she has tried many looks!  Her talent is amazing and I would love to see her live on stage someday...

Here is to Liza...on and off the stage...

 "What impressed me was people who were funny and talented and adored life. And that's what I wanted to be like."

Happy Birthday Elizabeth Taylor

Such a beautiful woman. Violet Eyes. Amazing sense of fashion. Married 8 times, to 7 husbands (she remarried Richard Burton 16 months after divorcing). An icon, both in style and humanitarianism.

Today would mark her 80th Birthday...a woman who will never be forgotten.

(Feb. 27,1932-March 23,2011)

Fashion Muse....A Tribute...

Love this girl!! Edie Sedgwick is probably my all time favorite! Her style was iconic for sure and sassy! Edie loved BIG earrings, OPAQUE black tights, STRIPES, and BLACK eye makeup.
She was named an "IT GIRL", "THE GIRL OF THE YEAR" (1965), and Vogue magazine named her "YOUTHQUAKER". I love her style so here's tribute to the Factory Girl herself...

...Ok so before adding my pics I decided to check the date of Edie Sedgwick's death and..this is super spooky, but it was today (in 1971)!! Exactly 40 years today!
These sort of psychic things happen to me often but this one is pretty crazy...I mean what are the chances that I would be writing a blog tribute to someone on the actual anniversary of their death...crazy!!

Here's to you Edie...a tribute indeed! 

April 20, 1943 – November 16, 1971
