One of my favourite collections ever
I seriously think these are the cutest things I have ever seen. I love deer sweaters and cardigans. I can’t find where to find the one with drawstrings but the others are all here for about forty dollars. I would literally marry someone who bought one for me. No questions asked.
After the success of my post about Rear Window Fashion Tips (read: I got a few likes and decided it was a success), I’ve decided to expand the series.
Today I’m looking at one of my favourite Audrey Hepburn movies (favourite old movies, favourite romantic comedies, favourite style movies, etc.) — How to Steal a Million:
1. Maintain an individualistic style
So what if your hat makes you look like you come from the same planet as the Coneheads? Own it.
2. Keep a beauty regimine
You think you can just look like Audrey Hepburn willy nilly? It takes work. Start with separating your eyelashes with a pin (that’s an actual Audrey Hepburn practice) and end with putting on your Givenchy wardrobe.
3. Dress comfortably
Especially if you’re going to be trapped in a closet for hours on end. Here’s hoping your company looks like Peter O’Toole.
4. Always give Givenchy a night off
You can’t look glamorous all the time. Sometimes you have to bite the bullet and wear rags.
5. Lace: wear it all over
There was one woman who perfected the art of head-to-toe Chantilly lace decades before Lady Gaga came along, and her name was Audrey Hepburn. Used here to add mystery as she plots an art heist, this is an example of Chantilly lace done right.
6. Choose the proper pyjamas.
The romanticism of this scene would’ve been lost if Audrey had’ve been wearing loose sweatpants and a ratty t-shirt.
7. There’s always time to be late, especially when you’re getting engaged.
So what if you have to meet your heist partner in 10 minutes, and the art gallery is about to close for the night? There’s always time to get engaged — whether you like your fiance or not.
