Next to the DVD player in my bedroom, you can always find the following movies: Shrek 2, Some Like It Hot, Twilight (don't judge), and Breakfast at Tiffany's. I keep them nearby in the off chance that I have a bad day and need to find my happy place. 9 out of 10 times, I will chose to watch the lovely Audrey Hepburn. She is the epitome of elegance, style and grace.

Audrey has many lovely quotes and I have pulled out one of my favorites for the above design. The quote in its entirety reads, "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."

I am currently finishing up a book based on her life, entitled Enchantment: The Life of Audrey Hepburn. Her story really is fascinating and the book is reminding me of why I love so many of her films.  If you have never viewed a movie staring Miss Hepburn, please do so. If you aren't sure where to begin, I have devised the following flow chart to point you in the right direction. 

In truth, I have secretly tested this chart on my husband and it failed miserably. In his defense, there are not boobies or explosives in the first 5 minuets of any Audrey film, so I can see why he feels they are "sort of slow moving..."

"For beautiful eyes, look for good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone."        - Audrey Hepburn

    Ask anyone who knows me (especially my mother), and they will tell you that I am very indecisive. I continuously have the hardest time picking my favorite ANYTHING. I suppose it is because I always believe that something amazing is about to happen - and I just don't want to miss out on it. On the other hand, it could just be the result of my A.D.D.

    Regardless, this little blog is to display my work and the work of some of my (many) favorite forms of inspiration.
