#65 DZP: Visit Audrey Hepburn's Star

Yup! I have a mini walk of fame star of her's but I finally went there to visit!

Thanks to these people too for coming with me!

Audrey Hepburn Anniversary

Audrey Hepburn

May 4, 1929 to January 20, 1993

If you don't know anything about me, know that Audrey Hepburn will forever be my idol.

If you do know me, then you know I'm practically obsessed.



Now you can go on Wikipedia to read up about her life, I'm not going to copy/paste it all here.

What you won't find on Wikipedia is the fact that I have collected Audrey Hepburn memorabilia probably since I was just out of high school (no need to calculate the years for that). I have several framed photographs/posters, and I have most of her movies. I have tons of knick-knacks due to the mass production of Audrey Hepburn (like t-shirts and such)... mostly of iconic Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffany's. I also have collected many published books/biographies of her, I personally love the one from her son Sean Hepburn Ferrer. Another personal fact: Moon River (performed by Audrey and composed by Henry Mancini & Johnny Mercer) melts my heart, brings tears to my eyes, and instantly calms me down if I feel unsure of the world around me. 

It's always a safe bet that anything Audrey I will love and adore.

Granted I was 8 years old when she passed away, but I will always look up to who she was and strive to be half the woman she was.

“I was born with an enormous need for affection, and a terrible need to give it.” - Audrey Hepburn

My Favorite "Keep Calm..."

Planning #80 DZP

80. Find a personally inspirational quote and work it into a piece of art or home decor

I always felt this explained me in one simple sentence... and it came out of my idol Audrey, so even that much better! Now I think after I paint my bedroom, I'll paint that quote on a set of 3 canvases, and of course hang those up on the wall.

“I was born with an enormous need for affection,

and a terrible need to give it.”

Lesson from Audrey

"Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, it’s at the end of your arm, as you get older, remember you have another hand: The first is to help yourself, the second is to help others." — Audrey Hepburn

One Day... Tiffany

So many meanings with this store. So many ideas floating in my head for the name and the color. Thank you Audrey Hepburn.
