Breakfast at Tiffanys, Roman Holiday, Sabrina, and Funny Face. What do these all have in common? Why the compelling and always charming Audrey Hepburn, of course. Her romances, her magnetism, her lovely clothing, her stance; all the things I wish to acquire myself. Someday....
Dress: Roxy. Sandals: Old Navy. Shoulder Bag: Vintage. Headband: Barneys. Bracelets: Guitar strings.

I love your bag !! This is a Chanel, isn't it ?
Love the bag!! You should put your hair up in an Audrey Hepburn french twist!
Ahhh audrey was a godess.I adore her, her style and attitude.In my room there's a big black/white portrait of her.last month i did a "audrey inspired fotoshoot" it was very funny.
The outfit is very simply but chic especially the bag.
That bag is gorgeous. Actually, this entire look is gorgeous!
That is a lovely quote from one of the most stylish women ever!
modern day audrey and oh so cutie too . kisses .
thats such an innocent look.
I adore the idea of using guitar strings as bracelets! 2 of my strings on my acoustic just snapped so many I'll DIY with those ones tonight :)
The entire look is so gorgeous, simple and lovely on you. You totally make this beautiful.
xox hope you're having a great day!

love how your inspired by old school film stars! audrey defnitely is THE icon, totally time less! i am so jealous you can still wear summer clothes. i have had to dig my winter coat out of the back of my closet... it is freezing cold here!! xo
That outfit is simple sophistication! Love it!
And oh, how beautiful, and true is that quote by Audrey? I love her!
After seeing "Breakfast At Tiffany's" I believe I went about for a day or do, imitating the manner of voice of Holly Golightly, she is infectious! :D
Aw, that sounds wonderful, I hope you and your mom will get to go sometime! I remember when my mom came to visit me in NYC one time, it was such fun! Well until she had to go and started crying, and then I started crying, and I don't like to cry in public :P And we were near Times Square, so you can imagine how public that is! haha.
I love the colorful bendy kind of straws, simply ze best! :D
Oh well, thankfully I feel ok today, perhaps it was just rubbish allergies that seem to plague us all around here! ;)
Have a lovely day!

I love how you used guitar strings as bracelets. And that bag is gorgeous!
paris when it sizzles is my favourite audrey movie...probably cause its the only one ive seen so far :D
i really need to go shopping-vintage of course-planning some denimDIY's and need a pair of levi's to cherish and poke holes in :D
i tried watching videos on MTV once but it didnt work cause apparently theres some US-CA copyright thing. stupid laws...
The simplicity is killing me, you look absolutely stunning! You know me and how much I lovelovelove simple pieces. Ms. Audrey is most definitely the supreme for chic, isn't she? You really do bring such modernity to her style. I love it!
Love youus! xo
I need a little black dress to now. A new one I mean! You look so great!
you're already on your way there my darling!
I LOVE ROMAN HOLIDAY!
ugh my all-time favorite movie!
oh audrey...perfect in every way. my top 3 fave hepburn films have to be charade, two for the road, and breakfast at tiffany's.
i love your dress...perfect for the beach or for a party. so chic!
The quote perfectly suits you and your Beauty! :-)
Salutations,
Sylvia Stern
You got her style down pat so you're there already!
I was a bit cryptic wasn't I? I was at Dapper Kid's. You know how I read comments as well as posts. I was reading your long comment there yesterday. :)
very nice!
...moooooon river.....
xoxo, LuVvy
I love that poem too, it was one of Audrey's favorites. This is a cute and simple outfit, j'adore.
A brilliant simple chic outfit! I LOVE the handbag! I am dying for one!
Simple and chic!
i lovveee your eye make up! looking reallly pretty! i love audrey too!
xxxx
oh audrey. love her. i have the box set with all those movies...she epitomizes classic style.
you do the LBD flawlessly. simple. no frills. striking.
classic beauty.
x.
My favorite Audrey is "Sabrina" as half of it is set in Paris. I also love the dress she wears when she returns to NYC.
Love the bag!
You look so cute and classy! Definitely channeling Audrey! ♥
I just moved my blog (haute-parleur) to a different location, http://www.kaitou.tv, and changed the name to KaitouTV as well! If you could update your link, I would greatly appreciate it~
lol, my friends at uni mentioned that the pants reminded them i=of 'I dream of Genie' too! hahaha
Awww you would look so adorable sipping your drink out of a straw. This is why people mistake you for a young-un ;)
Audrey was a classic beauty and you look very lovely in these pictures too :)
Your outfit reminds me a little bit of a modern spin on Breakfast at Tiffany's. You need a glorious hat! Lovely blog by the way, it's a great piece of work.
You definitely look timeless and chic, like A.H.
I love the dress that you're wearing! I wish it was still summer...I miss the days of just throwing on a pretty little dress and flip flops and being on my way.
My cousin just sent me a boxed set of all Audrey Hepburn's movies as a birthday gift...she's now my new favorite person.
Just lovely, simple but chic, the sandals work so well with the dress!
Lovely:)
You look all kinds of classy and stylish here.
Love the simple black dress but with the cute bow.
whoa! that bag is beautiful as well.
Love Audrey Hepburn & Hubert Givenchy...what a powerful duo that rocked the fashion world...
I'm sure they r looking down on you & gave their biggest smile...countess!
Gosh, this must be my favourite outfit ever!!! The simple black dress with the bow at the shoulder, the LOVELY bag... And the sandals! It's so great! Do you have black ballet flats? Or black/white ones, a la Chanel? I bet it would look great with those too, even more 60s!!
And that quote by Audrey Hepburn is just wonderful. You are the new Audrey, Erika.
I'm ashamed that I have never seen any of the films you listed - not even Breakfast at Tiffany's! At least I've removed SOME of my ignorance and finally watched Titanic (I'll write a review about it today).
"Her romances, her magnetism, her lovely clothing, her stance; all the things I wish to acquire myself." ...But you already have them, Erika...
And last but not least I wanted to thank you so much for all the comments you've ever left at my blog. I really, really appreciate every one of them. And I do hate copy/paste replies too.
Hugs & Love
Cate
absolutely effortless and chic.
p.s i just realized that i think you've noted that i look like whitney before. it's quite funny actually the way other people see you. but hey, she's the best one on that show so i'll take it as a compliment :) xx
I love the bag !!^^
cute photos... audrey hepburn is one of my favorite actresses.
loveee ittt,
i have always loved that poem!
and i have the same name as her, whoop! lol xox

clever. very clever. i want to scream and shout as loud as i could. i want to have a body like yours. lol. call me silly. i don't care. lol.
You are beautiful. Great pics!
As soon as I saw this outfit on Tfs I thought of Audrey.
You are every bit as stylish and graceful as her.

Sylvia Wow, what a compliment. Thank you so much!! ;D
ajoli thank you! ♥
Gorgeous inspiration and result!
xoxox,

I love your look! SO simple but yet SO CHIC!!! Love the bag too!
Audrey is timeless!!!
I revamped my blog to accommodate comments already yeey! I added you to my bloglist... (can you tell I'm giddy??)
Enjoy your weekend Erika!!
As soon as I saw the title I thought of Audrey, I can't believe I got it right! :)
You look wonderful!! I love Audrey's style in her films (so far I've seen Breakfast at Tiffany's, My Fair Lady, Roman Holiday and Funny Face). Next on the list is Sabrina :)
I LOVE THAT QUOTE BY AUDREY! It's one of my favorite quotes ever. I absolutely adore Audrey.
"Her romances, her magnetism, her lovely clothing, her stance; all the things I wish to acquire myself. Someday...." - me too... but you're close enough :)
Those bracelets are guitar strings?? I'm so sorry I've trown my old strings away now!
LOVE that bag!! I have yet to see 'breakfast at tiffanys' but have always wanted to! but i can't find a copy anywhere! x
Very very chic.
the bag is :@mazing!!
would you like to exchange links?
let me know.
Omgosh, I LOVE your bag! I have a vintage Chanel, but I'll never be 100% certain it's the real deal. It's really nice though and i wear it often. Yours is gorgeous!! :-)
My eye went straight to that bag!
*~The World is My Catwalk~* I cannot access your blog for some reason?? :( Please EMAIL me the link! I miss you. Thank you for the wonderful LOVE in my blog.
Oh my, this is CLASS, my dear! Absolutely stunning. Now I'm convinced I need to save up for a Chanel bag.
i love your outfit
You look great, and I love the outfit !
cool, thanks.
I already added you. :)
I need to see more films with Audrey in it (so far I've only seen Breakfast at Tiffany's). You look lovely, however, in your Audrey-inspired outfit. So timeless and classy!
angeli.blog.no thank you so much!! ♥
What a great dress. I love Audrey Hepburn she seemed so great.
I love your version of the little black dress. super kawaii!
Gorgeous dress! Of course, mentioning Audrey Hepburn while wearing a little black dress is entirely appropriate. If I ever have kids (which might be never since I hate brats), I'm going to name one of them Audrey after her :)
<333333 quilted purse, and your little black dress. www.thedailyalygator.blogspot.com
Between the two of us... I serious think we could have an Audrey marathon. So iconic, she melts my heart everytime.. probably why I own every movie... I adore her.
And your Audrey-ness is def channeling through with this simply chic LBD. All you need is a strand of pearls! lol
Oh, I look at your page way too often, I'm linking you up, dear.
The bag is gorgeous, you look great.
Stunning, stunning, stunning. And I find it very inspiring :) Thanks for that! hehe
You are such a doll! Thank you for your kind words also. Fashion chalet is a prototype for aspiring bloggers world wide. Drop a line anytime!
You look gorgeous in this outfit! Audrey is such a legend! x x x
You look so elegant. And your hair looks pretty up.
I love your dress and i LOVE LOVE LOVE Audrey, she's a role model.

Thanks for the compliment about my outfit. When I look thru magazines, I always see so many celebrities whose outfits I like, it's hard settling on one to imitate ^^ I'm relieved you think the sweater looked good with the jeans - I was afraid it might look a bit too boring. Thanks Erika!
Oh, and no problem about the comments - I love commenting on your blog. I'm happy I made you happy ^^ And yeah, there are periods in my life when I practically live in one pair of shoes too (it used to be my black ballet flats too). Great, I'd love to see yours this fall. I always wear my ballet flats in summer, because when I wear them in cooler weather, my feet always freeze. Lucky you, it's warm over there....
But it may be that my ballet flats are especially meant for summer, because my cousin wore them once and said that she felt as if she was only wearing socks.
Yeah, I know, I need to work on my posture too (I'm always telling my dad that he should tell me to keep a straight back) - and I WISH I had all of Audrey's clothes in the films too. I so love vintage clothes!! ♥ And OK, I'll get hold of SABRINA :)
Wow, Titanic has become my fourth favourite film now. Especially/also because it's from the 90s, the decade I grew up in.... But strangely enough, I didn't cry. Maybe because I was watching it with four friends who didn't cry either.
Thanks again for everything.
xoxo Cate
loveee breakfast at tiffany's! there is a book i read called "breakfast at bloomingdale's" it was good, about a fashion designer!
xoxo
Aw, yay for shared taste! :D
And aw, yay, I actually did my hair like Audrey's in BAT, that updo, but it was when my hair was a good deal shorter. I think I have too much hair now, maybe... I don't know, I could ask my sister, she's like a hair genius! That's why I am so bad at hair, she always wanted to do mine, and she's like a professional hair stylist, so I never bothered to do my own hair... and now that she's mainly wrong, I find I'm incapable of doing hair well! :P
Oh my gosh, so funny you should talk about crying over commericals, I don't often, but just last night I saw this tv ad (http://www.forbetterlife.org/be-inspired/tv.asp?id=2827) and got all choked up! Partially the song, that song is always so moving.
Hope you're having a good weekend! :)

Loving the bag - and audrey! Her style is a constant source of inspiration for me. She was so iconic. I love all of her movies.
I love those movies, especially Sabrina and Funny Face, they. I would've liked Roman Holiday better but the ending left me disappointed. :)
Is it totally weird I have never really cared for ms. Audrey? I was always obsessed with Marilyn Monroe I don't know, I am totally rambling but whatever. Love the dress so cute on you. And have I ever told you I am so jealous of your long locks?
hey doll :)
what a sweet LBD!
& i adore that Audrey quote !
hope you're well x
Audrey never ceases to inspire me! Lovely interpretation.
That dress is just beautiful!
love dress and bag, so chic
cute dress and lovely bag! :)
LOve your bag, love this outfit, love everything !!
love this!
so simple but so wow
black dress and long legs, beautiful!
I love audrey!
I pretty much have posters of her all over my room haha!
cool blog by the way!
Perfection! This is the perfect example of how a day look can translate to night! A switch of shoes, and your ready for a night out. The bag leaves me speechless. It's so...words can't describe my love for it!! <3
