The Infinite Grace of Audrey Hepburn


I have always been an avid fan of Ms. Hepburn. Her style, her poise, the way she spoke...a true lady. I loved the way the clothes she wore seemed to envelop her body....becoming one with who and what was Audrey...

Audrey Hepburn Biography:Magical screen presence, fashion arbiter, shrine to good taste, and tireless crusader for children's rights, Audrey Hepburn has become one of the most enduring screen icons of the twentieth century. Best-known for her film roles in Breakfast at Tiffany's, My Fair Lady, Roman Holiday and Charade, Hepburn epitomized a waif-like glamour, combining charm, effervescence, and grace. When she died of colon cancer in 1993, the actress was the subject of endless tributes which mourned the passing of one who left an indelible imprint on the world, both on and off screen.

I truly miss old Hollywood. Where is the style, the true fashion...respect?? Granted there were hot topics going on that were so hush hush but still it seems to me Hollywood has gone a tad sour these days what with all the tabloid hoopla over such ingrates as Britney Spears and Lindsey Lohan to name a few "diva" few.....

I feel that Audrey encompass the old world style of late Hollywood with her classic good looks and style. I loved her movies and in her later years she was an advocate for children's rights with UNICEF....someone to greatly admire...and cherish...
