Audreyphile

I've developed this sudden interest in Audrey Hepburn, which probably is due to the fact that GAP used her in a campaign ad not too long ago.

I'm not into Hollywood, especially the tanned, oiled up, crack-addicted waifs they've been churning out. But Audrey represents this classic beauty from another era. She's sexy, but it's subtle and not over-the-top. So many women in Hollywood can't understand this. Audrey is what a Hollywood role model should be, if one believes in making actresses into role models. It doesn't really fly today.

If anything, I want to emulate that classic sophistication. I've watched Sabrina, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Paris When it Sizzles, and My Fair Lady a number of times. Ah, that fashion. So elegant.
