{Vintage Friday}: Audrey, You are my Favorite

I have always loved Audrey Hepburn since I was a little girl, for me she is the one I think of when someone mentions elegance. Do you have a favorite actress from the Hollywood B&W age?

Happy Friday!! Have a wonderful weekend :)

I've loved Audrey Hepburn for almost all my life, well since I was about 6 years old I guess. I used to watch all her movies and sigh at how seemingly effortless it was for her to be as beautiful and elegant as she always was.

Wasn't she pure magic?
I always loved her in her party dress in Sabrina.
And I think she was equally beautiful on the inside.
